Titanium Grade 2 (Ti Gr 2 / 3.7035) structural hollow sections are increasingly used in a variety of applications due to their excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. The following is an overview of their applications, especially in structural hollow stations:

Marine Structures – Support Frame: A support frame used in the construction of offshore platforms to provide strength while minimizing weight.
– Hull and superstructure: Hull and superstructure used in the shipbuilding industry due to its resistance to seawater corrosion.

Aerospace Industry – Aircraft structures: for lightweight structural components such as fuselage frames and wing structures where weight reduction is critical.
– Spacecraft Parts: Ideal for structural elements in spacecraft that require high strength and low weight to withstand harsh conditions.

Chemical Processing – Piping systems: Hollow profile pipes often used to convey corrosive materials, ensuring durability and reliability.
– Storage tanks: Storage tanks used to contain corrosive chemicals and have excellent corrosion resistance.

Architectural Applications – Structural Framing: Columns and beams used in modern building designs to provide both aesthetic appeal and structural integrity.
– Facades and cladding: applied to building exteriors to provide a unique appearance while ensuring protection from environmental factors.

Nuclear Power Plant – Structural supports: used in containment structures and support frames to ensure safety and stability in critical environments.
– Heat exchanger: used in cooling systems due to its corrosion resistance and ability to handle high temperatures.

1. Corrosion resistance: Excellent resistance to oxidation and corrosion, making it very suitable for use in corrosive environments.
2. High strength-to-weight ratio: Significant weight reduction compared to traditional materials, thereby improving performance in a variety of applications.
3. Ductility and formability: Good ductility allows a variety of manufacturing techniques, including bending and welding, which is critical for hollow structures.
4. Temperature resistance: Maintains mechanical properties at high temperatures, suitable for high temperature applications.
5. Biocompatibility: Ideal for medical applications requiring compatibility with human tissue.

– Cost: Titanium has higher material costs compared to traditional materials such as steel, which may limit its use in certain applications.
– Manufacturing challenges: Due to its unique properties, specialized cutting, welding and forming techniques and equipment are required.
