Product Detail
Product Introduction
Grade 23 Ti-6Al-4V ELI Titanium Wire is supplied for corrosion-resistant fabrication and precision manufacturing. The final purchase definition must identify the exact material designation, governing specification and revision, dimensions, condition, tolerances, tests and documentation; trade-name or cross-standard equivalence is not assumed.
When should Grade 23 titanium wire be specified?
Selection answer: Grade 23 Ti-6Al-4V ELI wire is selected when the approved design requires lower interstitial limits than Grade 5 together with a wire product form and the exact governing material specification.
Selection boundary: Do not infer medical approval from the terms Grade 23 or ELI. ASTM B863 UNS R56407, ASTM F136 UNS R56401 and customer-controlled aerospace or medical requirements are distinct purchasing routes.
RFQ data to confirm: Send the exact specification and UNS, application, diameter and tolerance, format, condition, surface, test and metallurgical requirements, regulatory documents, quantity and destination for review.
Product Specifications
| Product | Grade 23 Ti-6Al-4V ELI Titanium Wire | Grade | Titanium Grade 23 / Ti-6Al-4V ELI / UNS R56407 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | ASTM B863-23 covers titanium and titanium-alloy wire and identifies Grade 23 as UNS R56407, Ti-6Al-4V with extra-low interstitial elements. ASTM F136 covers wrought annealed Ti-6Al-4V ELI for surgical implant manufacture as UNS R56401 and is a separate specification. State the exact standard, revision, UNS, wire size, condition, straight length or coil/spool form, surface and tolerances. | Size & Form | Coil, spool or straight wire; diameter, tolerance, package form and weight are confirmed by RFQ |
| Tolerance | Governing material standard or approved customer drawing | Supply Condition | Bright or pickled surface in coil, spool or straight length |
| Inspection | Verify the expressly ordered UNS and specification, heat identity, chemistry including interstitial limits, tensile properties, wire diameter and tolerance, straightness or cast/helix where relevant, surface, marking, MTC and heat/lot traceability. Medical, aerospace, welding or forming applications may require different metallurgical, cleanliness, dimensional and regulatory controls. | Documents | MTC, heat/lot traceability and agreed inspection reports |

FAQ
Is ASTM B863 Grade 23 wire automatically ASTM F136 implant material?
No. ASTM B863 Grade 23 is UNS R56407. ASTM F136 surgical-implant material is UNS R56401 and carries separate chemical, mechanical and metallurgical requirements. The purchase order must state the required specification and UNS.
Is Grade 23 wire the same as ERTi-5 welding wire?
No. Grade 23 is a wrought Ti-6Al-4V ELI material grade. ERTi-5 is a welding-filler classification used under a qualified welding procedure. Do not substitute one description for the other.
What information is needed to quote Grade 23 wire?
Provide exact ASTM, medical, aerospace or drawing specification and revision, UNS, diameter and tolerance, straight length or coil/spool, condition, surface, application, mechanical or metallurgical tests, cleanliness, MTC, quantity and destination.
