This specification covers a titanium alloy in the form of bars, wire, flash welded rings, and stock or flash welded rings or heading.This alloy has been used typically for parts requiring strength up to 800 mDF (427 mDC), but usage is not limited to such applications.Certain processing procedures and service conditions may cause these products to become subject to stress-corrosion cracking; SAE ARP 982 recommends practices to minimize such conditions.
