Annealed Grade 29 Titanium
Annealed grade 29 titanium is grade 29 titanium in the annealed condition. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare annealed grade 29 titanium to: wrought titaniums (top), all titanium alloys (middle), and the entire database (bottom). A full bar means this is the highest value in the relevant set. A half-full bar means it's 50% of the highest, and so on.
