ATI 425® alloy is a recently developed alpha-beta titanium alloy with strength comparable to Ti-6Al-4V but with improved ductility and formability.

Due to the unique combination of properties, ATI 425® alloy is an attractive candidate for replacement of Ti 6Al-4V (AMS 4911) for certain structural applications as well as a potential upgrade from alloys such as Ti 3Al-2.5V (AMS 4989) and Ti CP-4 (AMS 4901). 

 The improved workability of ATI 425® alloy allows this alloy to be hot rolled and warm or cold formed into larger section parts with fewer joints thereby reducing the costs of large components. 

This presentation will focus on potential applications of ATI 425® alloy plate for aerospace and defense structures requiring cold formability, strength, toughness and/or ballistic resistance.
