Form This specification covers a titanium alloy in the form of bars up through 7.000 inches (177.80 mm) inclusive@ in nominal diameter or least distance between parallel sides@ forgings of thickness up through 7.000 inches (177.80 mm)@ inclusive@ and stock for forging of any size. Application This material has been used typically for parts to be machined in the solution heat treated condition and subsequently precipitation heat treated@ requiring high strength-to-weight ratio and stability up to 550 ??(288 ?? in the precipitation heat treated condition@ 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; ARP982 recommends practices to minimize such conditions.
