Titanium Grade 5 ELI Wire Manufacturer and Stockist in India

Titanium grade 5 eli wire
Titanium Grade 5 ELI wire is another name for Ti 6Al 4V, referred to as ASTM Grade 23. The wire is used in coils, lines, and spools depending on the purpose. The tight control of oxygen and iron content differentiates titanium Grade 5 ELI from Grade 5 titanium, resulting in better properties concerning fracture toughness and ductility at cold temperatures. Grade 5 titanium presents the same content in aluminum and vanadium as Grade 5, possessing the same values of force, but it has lower contents of interstitial elements, making this type of titanium suitable for being used in operating rooms and cryogenic processes instead of industrial production. Sachin Steel Centre produces and sells Grade 5 ELI titanium wire from its facility in Mumbai, where testing and certification of every batch take place after production.

Applications of Titanium Grade 5 ELI Wire

  • Medical implants: Orthopedic implants, bone fixation wires, dental implants, surgical components, and other implantable devices.
  • Medical and surgical instruments: Precision components and instruments requiring corrosion resistance and reliable mechanical performance.
  • Aerospace components: Lightweight wire-formed parts, springs, fasteners, and safety-critical components.
  • Wire and spring manufacturing: High-strength springs, clips, hooks, retainers, and other formed wire products.
  • Additive manufacturing: Wire feedstock for wire-based metal 3D-printing and directed-energy-deposition processes.
  • Marine applications: Components exposed to seawater and chloride-containing environments because of titanium’s excellent corrosion resistance.
  • Chemical processing: Wire components and fabricated parts used in corrosive processing environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Titanium Grade 5 ELI is the trade name some suppliers use for ASTM Grade 23. They refer to the same material, and buyers sourcing to a specification should ask for Grade 23 by name.

Titanium Grade 5 ELI wire carries the UNS number R56401. Standard Grade 5 carries a different number, R56400, so the two should never be confused when ordering.

Titanium Grade 5 ELI wire is available as coil, straight length and spool. Spool packaging is covered in detail on the Titanium Grade 5 ELI Spool Wire page.

The tighter oxygen and iron limits in Grade 23 give it better fracture toughness and ductility than standard Grade 5, which reduces the risk of crack growth in an implant that has to perform reliably inside the body over the long term.

Both share the same aluminium and vanadium content and similar tensile strength, but Grade 5 ELI holds oxygen to 0.13 percent maximum and iron to 0.25 percent maximum, against 0.20 percent and up to 0.40 percent on standard Grade 5. That tighter control is what improves fracture toughness and low temperature performance.
