Standards for titanium rods mainly include national standards (GB/T) and international standards (such as ASTM), which specify their chemical composition, mechanical properties, dimensional tolerances, and manufacturing processes.
National Standards: GB/T2965-2007, GB/T13810, Q/BS5331-91
American Standards: ASTM B348, ASTM F136, ASTM F67, AMS4928
China's newly released national standard, "Titanium and Titanium Alloy Rods," will be implemented on April 1, 2024, replacing the old version GB/T 2965-2007. This standard specifies the technical requirements for titanium and titanium alloy rods produced by both forging and rolling processes, eliminating extrusion and drawing processes.
1: GB 228 Metallic Materials - Tensile Testing
2: GB/T 3620.1 Titanium and Titanium Alloys - Grades and Chemical Composition
3: GB/T3620.2 Titanium and Titanium Alloy Processed Products - Chemical Composition and Permissible Deviations
4: GB 4698 Sponge Titanium, Titanium and Titanium Alloys - Chemical Analysis Methods
