Fabrication and Heat Treatment
Machinability
Grade 4 Unalloyed Ti (“Pure”) 75A alloy is hard to machine but can be successfully done using slow speeds, high coolant flow, and high feed rates. Tooling should be performed using tungsten carbide designations C1-C4 or cobalt type high speed tools.
Forming
Grade 4 Unalloyed Ti (“Pure”) 75A alloy can be hot or cold formed using power brake, hydropress, stretch or drop hammer methods.
Welding
Weldability of grade 4 Unalloyed Ti (“Pure”) 75A alloy is rated as good.
Annealing
Annealing of this material can be performed by heating to 704°C (1299°F), and then held for 2 h, which should be followed by air cooling. In case intermediate stress relieving is required, the material has to be heated to 482-538°C (900-100-°F) for 45 min.
Forging
Rough forging can be performed at 935°C (1715°F) and completed at 843°C (1550 °F).
Hot Working
Hot working enhances the overall ductility of the material.
Cold Working
Cold working features of this material is same as that of a moderately tempered austenitic stainless steel. Post-work annealing is recommended to re- attain favorable performance properties.
