Why Choose Our Titanium Pipe Fittings?
Titanium pipe fittings are the preferred choice for critical piping systems where failure is not an option. They offer unparalleled benefits in environments that would rapidly degrade traditional metallic materials:
Unmatched Corrosion Resistance: Excellent resistance to pitting, crevice, and stress-corrosion cracking in chloride-containing media, including seawater and brine.
High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Allows for lighter, yet structurally sound, piping systems, reducing support requirements and installation costs.
Thermal Stability: Maintains structural integrity and mechanical properties over a wide range of temperatures, from cryogenic to high-heat process environments.
Longevity and Reliability: Engineered to meet stringent international specifications, ensuring a long, predictable, and maintenance-free service life.
Comprehensive Range of Titanium Pipe Fittings
We supply a diverse portfolio of Titanium Pipe Fittings tailored for specific connection types and flow requirements. Our products are typically manufactured in accordance with the ASTM B363 / ASME SB363 specification for seamless and welded unalloyed titanium and titanium alloy welding fittings.
Common Types of Titanium Fittings
Elbows (90° and 45°): Used to change the direction of the piping run. Available in long radius (LR) and short radius (SR) forms.
Flanges: Used to connect pipes, valves, pumps, and other equipment, allowing for easy disassembly. Types include Weld Neck, Slip-On, Blind, Socket Weld, and Lap Joint (Stub Ends).
Reducers (Concentric and Eccentric): Used to connect pipe sections of different diameters.
Tees (Equal and Reducing): Used to combine or divide fluid flow.
Stub Ends: Used in conjunction with Lap Joint Flanges, providing a cost-effective solution for large-diameter or high-alloy piping.
Caps: Used to cover the end of a pipe.
Titanium Grades and Standards
Our fittings are available in all major Commercially Pure (CP) titanium grades and key titanium alloys, ensuring compatibility with virtually any corrosive or high-pressure application.
Primary Grades for Pipe Fittings
Grade 2 (WPT2): The most common CP grade, offering an excellent balance of strength, formability, and superior corrosion resistance in oxidizing and mildly reducing media. Ideal for general chemical processing.
Grade 5 (WPT5 / Ti-6Al-4V): The "workhorse" alloy, selected for applications requiring high strength and low weight, such as aerospace and high-pressure oil & gas systems.
Grade 7 (WPT7): CP titanium with Palladium added, providing the best all-around corrosion resistance, especially in highly acidic environments.
Grade 12 (WPT12): A titanium-molybdenum-nickel alloy offering enhanced crevice corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures, making it a cost-effective alternative to Grade 7.
Key Manufacturing Standards
All our titanium fittings are manufactured and dimensionally controlled according to the following international standards:
ASTM B363 / ASME SB363: Standard Specification for Welded and Seamless Titanium and Titanium Alloy Welding Fittings.
ASME B16.9: Factory-Made Wrought Buttwelding Fittings (Covers dimensions and tolerances).
ASME B16.5 / B16.47: Pipe Flanges and Flanged Fittings (Covers dimensions and pressure-temperature ratings).

Core Applications of Our Titanium Pipe Fittings
Our high-quality Titanium Pipe Fittings are essential components in critical infrastructure across multiple heavy industries, providing sustainable and cost-effective solutions for fluid handling.
Chemical Processing Industry (CPI): Handling highly corrosive media such as wet chlorine gas, nitric acid, and various organic acids.
Marine and Offshore: Used in seawater cooling systems, ballast water treatment, and subsea oil & gas exploration due to titanium's immunity to seawater corrosion.
Power Generation: Essential for condenser tubing and piping in nuclear and fossil fuel power plants, especially where cooling water is brackish or seawater.
Oil & Gas (Downstream): Used in refineries and petrochemical plants for critical heat exchangers and piping where high temperatures and corrosive substances are present.
Desalination Plants: Integral to the piping systems in Multi-Stage Flash (MSF) and Reverse Osmosis (RO) desalination facilities.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the primary standard for titanium welding fittings?
The primary specification is ASTM B363 / ASME SB363, which covers the chemical and mechanical requirements for seamless and welded titanium and titanium alloy welding fittings. Dimensional requirements are typically governed by ASME B16.9.
Q: Why is Grade 7 titanium often chosen for highly corrosive applications?
Titanium Grade 7 contains a small addition of Palladium, which significantly enhances its corrosion resistance, particularly in reducing and highly acidic environments. This makes it the most corrosion-resistant of all titanium grades.
Q: Are your titanium fittings seamless or welded?
We supply both. Smaller diameter fittings are often seamless, manufactured from titanium pipe or tube. Larger diameter and more complex fittings are typically welded or fabricated from titanium plate or sheet, all in compliance with the requirements of ASTM B363.
