This specification covers a titanium alloy in the form of bars, forgings, and stock for forging. These products have been used typically for parts which require high mechanical properties in the annealed condition and a high strength to weight ratio up to 750 °F (399 °C), but usage is not limited to such applications. Certain processing procedures and service conditions may cause these products to become subject to stress-corrosion; SAE ARP 982 recommends practices to minimize such conditions.
