Product Detail
Product Introduction
Custom titanium fittings are drawing-controlled piping components with nonstandard geometry, interfaces or functions that are not fully defined by a catalog fitting designation. Custom does not necessarily mean large: it may involve unusual angles, offsets, branches, wall transitions, mixed ends, ports, close tolerances or integrated features. The approved drawing is the primary acceptance document.
Product Specifications
| Product | Custom Titanium Fittings | Material Options | Titanium Grade 2, Grade 7 or Grade 12 as specified |
|---|---|---|---|

| Product Standard | ASTM B363 / ASME SB363 where applicable | Dimensional Basis | ASME B16.9, ASME B16.11 or approved drawing as applicable |
| Wall | Schedule or nominal wall thickness matched to the connected pipe and design | Ends | Welded, machined, flanged or project-defined ends |
| Manufacturing | Seamless, welded, formed, forged, machined or fabricated as specified | Surface | Pickled, cleaned, machined or project-specific finish |
| Inspection | Visual, dimensions, wall, ends and specified NDT | Documents | MTC, heat/lot traceability and inspection report |
Typical ranges are quotation guidance, not a stock guarantee. Final availability and tolerances are confirmed against the complete RFQ and design code.
Selection and Configuration
- Drawing-controlled geometry: Provide revision-controlled dimensions, datums, tolerances, wall transitions, branches, ports and end interfaces.
- Material and fabrication plan: Define grade, source-product specifications, formed, forged, machined or welded route, heat treatment and cleaning.
- Verification plan: State first article, dimensional report, CMM or templates, weld NDE, pressure/leak test and documentation.

Certificates & Inspection Records
Services We Can Provide
Product Packaging
Fittings are capped or wrapped to protect clean ends, bevels, threads and machined faces. Items are separated by grade, size and heat/lot, then packed in reinforced cartons or export cases according to geometry and quantity.
Application Scenarios
Chemical Processing
Corrosion-resistant piping for acids, chlorides and process media after grade compatibility review.
Power & Energy
Cooling-water, condenser and auxiliary piping requiring traceable titanium components.
Marine & Desalination
Seawater and chloride-bearing piping systems designed for the selected titanium grade.
FAQ
Is every large-diameter fitting a custom fitting?
Large size can require customization, but the terms describe different issues: large diameter is scale; custom is nonstandard geometry or acceptance.
What files are required for quotation?
Provide a controlled 2D drawing and, when available, a 3D model plus material, design, service, inspection and document requirements.
Can a standard fitting be modified?
Only after design review of remaining wall, reinforcement, end geometry, heat input, cleanliness and code compliance.
