Grade 35 (R56340) Titanium

Grade 35 titanium is a titanium alloy formulated for primary forming into wrought products. Cited properties are appropriate for the annealed condition. R56340 is the UNS number for this material. Additionally, the ASTM designation is Titanium Grade 35.

It has a fairly low ductility among wrought titaniums. In addition, it has a moderately high density and a moderately high tensile strength.

The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare grade 35 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.
