Unalloyed Commercially Pure (CP) Titanium is represented by four distinct grades, specifically 1, 2, 3 and 4. CP Titanium is ordered in relation to the corrosion resistance, formability
(ductility) and strength requirements of a specific application. CP Titanium ranges from grade 1, which has the highest corrosion resistance, formability and lowest strength, to grade
4, which offers the highest strength and moderate formability. CP Titanium end users utilize excellent corrosion resistance, formability and weldable characteristics for many critical
applications.
CP Titanium has a tendency to stick, fret or cold weld with drawing dies during processing. Common industry practice to avoid this condition employs heavy etching or pickling
at finish size, resulting in a coarse or very textured surface. Mills have developed processing techniques with enhanced surface treatments that require minimal etching at
finish size to remove most residual oxide, yielding a cleaner and smoother surface finish. Material can be purchased with this improved surface finish or with a retained water soluble
lubricant for applications where lubricity of the wire is required (e.g. weaving applications).
