TC4 Titanium Alloy is the major material for automotive

• TC4 (Ti-6Al-4V) is the most widely used titanium alloy in automotive structural components.
• It is composed of titanium, aluminum, and vanadium, belonging to the (α+β) type titanium alloys.
• TC4 offers excellent comprehensive mechanical properties, making it suitable for various automotive applications.

Usage and Production:

• TC4 accounts for approximately 60% of the total titanium production worldwide.
• It is extensively utilized in the aerospace industry, constituting over 80% of titanium semi-finished product usage.
• Common forms of TC4 semi-finished products include titanium bars, Titanbarren, titanium sheets, titanium plates, profiles, and wires.
