Titanium screws are widely used in many demanding fields due to their excellent performance. The following are the main uses of titanium screws and their technical details:
Aerospace:
Titanium screws are used in aerospace to manufacture aircraft fuselages, engine components, satellite components, etc. Titanium alloys such as Ti-6Al-4V (titanium-aluminum-vanadium alloy) are one of the most commonly used materials. They have extremely high specific strength (ratio of strength to density) and can effectively reduce the weight of aircraft. Taking commercial jet aircraft as an example, titanium screws can withstand tensile strengths of up to 900 MPa, while their density is only about 60% of steel, thereby reducing the total weight of the aircraft and improving fuel efficiency and flight performance. In addition, titanium’s high heat resistance allows it to maintain stability even in high temperature environments.
Automotive industry:
In high-performance racing cars and luxury cars, titanium screws are used to reduce body weight and improve durability. For example, titanium screws in F1 cars can withstand extremely high stresses while significantly reducing body weight and improving handling and acceleration performance. The corrosion resistance of titanium screws also helps to maintain long-term stable performance in harsh track environments.
Medical devices:
Titanium screws are widely used in medical devices such as orthopedic implants and dental implants due to their excellent biocompatibility. Titanium alloys such as Ti-6Al-4V have good bone bonding, which can reduce rejection in the body and help bone healing. In addition, its corrosion resistance ensures that the implant will not corrode or degrade during long-term use in the human body, thereby improving the durability and safety of the implant.
High-end sports equipment:
In high-end sports equipment such as alpine bikes, skis and mountaineering equipment, titanium screws are used to improve performance and durability. The high strength and light weight of titanium screws make sports equipment lighter and stronger, able to withstand extreme conditions and loads, and improve the overall performance and user experience of sports equipment.
