  Stainless Steel Corrugated Tubes corrugated stainless steel tubing used for gas piping in buildings. Since 1990 CSST has been used within many buildings in both exposed and enclosed areas to install new gas system piping. The article discusses CSST uses, sources, installation specifications, and safety measures to protect the gas piping from damage by abrasion, puncture, lightning strikes or other hazards. Gas piping codes and industry sources of CSST are included.

What is Titanium and its Features

What is Titanium and its Features


Titanium Alloy is a manufacturing process that uses titanium. It replicates the exact shape of an item. Melted titanium poured into a wax pattern mold. Specialized ceramic material is then coated into the wax pattern mold and left to dry and harden. The wax pattern mold is then inverted and heated to let the wax melt and drip out of it. The ceramic shell becomes a superfluous investment mold. Liquefied titanium is then poured into the mold and cooled off. The mold is then broken off to reveal the replicated item.

Why use Titanium?

Besides being durable, Titanium is also light and sturdy. It is resistant to corrosion. It is very reliable in creating consumer products as well as sporting goods. It is the ninth most abundant metal in Earth’s crust. In 1979, William Gregor discovered it to be a mixture of magnetite. He called it “manaccanite” for the parish he discovered it with. It was later confirmed by Martin Heinrich Klaproth that the manaccanite contained titanium.

Titanium is a transition metal. It can form bonds using electrons and shares the same features as copper, gold, and mercury.

Advantages of using Titanium in Casting

- It is as strong as most common steels with less than 40% of the counterpart’s      weight

- It is corrosion resistant and almost as chemical attack-resistant as platinum.        Titanium is one of the best metals used for ocean and chemical handling              components.

- It has a very nice cosmetic appeal. Titanium’s cosmetic and technological              appeal  surpasses other precious metals. Titanium can is a gray-silver metal. It    can be anodized into several colors as well as treated to give a glossy durable        black diamond look.

Disadvantages of using Titanium in Casting

- Titanium is very difficult to cast. A zirconium oxide ceramic mold is used to          harness the titanium’s full potential.

- It is very rare. It is very hard to find so it is generally more expensive than          other  types of metals like iron, steel, or aluminum.

Titanium has its pros and cons. It is strong, durable, and corrosion-resistant thus outweighing its expensive state.

Titanium Features and Properties

- Durability. To a fault, titanium is impervious to the daily grind of wear      and tear.    Thus, it increases the service life of the equipment it is used   for. It is resistant to cracking or bending and is capable of being resistant to       scratches. Stone settings in titanium resist loosening very well. Titanium’s high     strength allows  innovative and more delicate stone settings. More than your       traditional jewelry metals.

- Lightweight Strength: Titanium displays the highest strength-to-density ratio        for  any metal. It also provides the same amount of strength as steel at 40% of    its weight.

- Corrosion Resistance. It protects itself from rust or corrosion. Rust affects other    metals like aluminum, iron, and steel. This is because of the thin layer of              titanium oxide created on its surface when exposed to oxygen.

- Temperature Resistance. It is valuable to the medical, aeronautics, and                industrial  fields. This is due to the titanium’s high melting point (1,668 Celsius      or 3034.4 Fahrenheit).

Applications of Titanium

- Aerospace Industry. Airline industries have been using titanium in building their    engine parts. Not to mention their planes’ landing gears, frames, hydraulic            sections, and many more.

- Medical Industry. Titanium is used in biomedical applications. Hip, knee, and        dental implants, reconstructive pins, and prosthetics have been the                      beneficiaries. This is because of its high strength-to-weight ratio. And also its        compatibility with human tissue or hypoallergenic properties. It is used in              manufacturing surgical instruments like scissors, scalpels, forceps, and knives.

- Military and Security Sectors. Titanium invested casting parts are currently used    in military and naval ships.

- Oil and gas industries, transportation sector, construction, consumer and              sporting products use titanium.

Titanium Process

- A pattern or mold of the desired part is created from melted wax or plaster.
- The mold is coated with zirconium oxide. The standard ceramic mold cannot be   used due to the chemical reaction it makes with the melted titanium.

- Once the ceramic mold shell has been completed. The wax is melted and              drained out, leaving a hollow mold casing.

- Titanium is melted using induction in a water-cooled copper crucible. It is placed   in a specialized heating container system. It prevents the titanium from being      exposed to elements like nitrogen and oxygen.

- The melted titanium is now coursed into the specialized ceramic molding.              Centrifugal force to fill in the void within the thin walls

- The titanium freezes into its solid form upon contact with the ceramic molding.     Now it is ready to replicate the desired part or component needed almost            immediately.
