Titanium strip and foil with high corrosion resistance, temperature resistance, & outstanding strength-to-weight ratios

Titanium Strip and Foil

Titanium foil offers excellent corrosion resistance, high‑temperature performance, and a high strength‑to‑weight ratio.Hamilton Precision Metals supplies titanium strip and foil in CP Grades 1, 2, and 4, and Titanium 3Al‑2.5V (Grade 9).

What Is Titanium Strip and Foil?

Titanium foil is produced as commercially pure or alloyed. Commercially pure titanium foil is typically used in implantable medical applications whereas the titanium alloys are produced with the addition of vanadium or aluminum for applications such as aerospace.

Hamilton Precision Metals processes strip and foil products in Titanium CP (Grade 1, Grade 2, Grade 4) and Titanium 3Al-2.5V (Grade 9).

Titanium is preferred when applications require a combination of lightweight strength, corrosion resistance, and reliability in extreme environments. It is often chosen where materials like stainless steel or aluminium cannot meet both mechanical and environmental demands simultaneously.

Titanium offers a high strength-to-weight ratio, meaning components can be made thinner and lighter without compromising structural integrity—ideal for aerospace, medical, and electronic systems.

Key inputs include:

  • Required strength vs formability
  • Environmental exposure (corrosion, temperature)
  • Thickness and dimensional tolerances
  • Application-specific requirements (medical, aerospace, chemical)
