Dymco Manufactured Metal Sleeves from 64 Titanium



Hello, I'm Aoi from Dymco’s R&D department.
Today, I would like to talk about 64 Titanium.

64 Titanium（Ti-6Al-4V）is a Titanium-based alloy consists of 6% Aluminum, 4% Vanadium, and forms alpha and beta metal structurer.

64 Titanium features high-strength and light-weight. Its specific strength (tensile strength/ weight) is remarkably high; it shows as high tensile-strength as stainless-steel while its weight is only 40% of stainless-steel.  

64 Titanium are also known for highly resistant to corrosion by sea water or acid at room temperature. This is because when 64 Titanium is exposed to oxygen in the air, it forms a very strong oxide (so called the passive oxide film) on its surface.

Using these advantages, 64 Titanium are used in wide rage of industrial field, such as aero planes, medicine, chemical plants, and sports equipment.

Titanium holds 39% in entire weight in a F-22 Fighter. 

This time we focused on hard-to-process materials and manufactured high-strength/ corrosion resistant 64 Titanium sleeves. These metal sleeves are manufactured by our flow-forming machine.

Dymco’s R&D department have been working hard on further development of our metal belt and metal sleeve technology, to deliver our customers more satisfaction.
