Grade 19 (R58640) Titanium

Grade 19 titanium is a titanium alloy formulated for primary forming into wrought products. R58640 is the UNS number for this material. Additionally, the ASTM designation is Titanium Grade 19.

It has a moderately low thermal conductivity among wrought titaniums. In addition, it has a moderately low heat capacity and a moderately high density.

The properties of grade 19 titanium include three common variations. This page shows summary ranges across all of them. For more specific values, follow the links immediately below. The graph bars on the material properties cards further below compare grade 19 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.
