    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is ASTM F468 titanium grade 19 (R58640)?

    UNS R58640 is F468 titanium grade 19, general name Titanium Ti-38-6-44 (Table 1). Chemical requirements: vanadium 7.5-8.5 %, chromium 5.5-6.5 %, molybdenum 3.5-4.5 %, zirconium 3.5-4.5 %, aluminum 3.0-4.0 %, iron 0.30 % max, oxygen 0.12 % max, titanium balance. Titanium fasteners are furnished as formed (4.2.2).

    What are the mechanical properties of F468 titanium grade 19?

    Full-size tensile 115-150 ksi and yield 115 ksi min; machined specimen tensile 120 ksi min, yield 115 ksi min, elongation 15 % min in 4D; hardness 24-38 HRC (Table 2). Hardness for titanium is for information only (Table 2 note A). Titanium is furnished as formed (4.2.2). Full-size test properties apply to fasteners up to 76 mm diameter; larger sections are negotiated (Table 2 note G).

    How are F468 titanium grade 19 fasteners marked?

    With the manufacturer's identification symbol and the Table 2 alloy/mechanical property marking F468FT, raised or depressed (16.1). Nuts for use with F468 bolts, cap screws and studs are covered by ASTM F467 (1.2).

    Can palladium or ruthenium be added to Grade 19?

    Yes. Ruthenium, palladium or both may be added to Grade 19 for enhanced corrosion resistance as negotiated between purchaser and vendor; chemical analysis for them is not required unless the purchaser asks (Table 1 note D).

    Does ASTM F468 cover sour service (NACE MR0175)?

    No. ASTM F468 is a specification for general use (1.1) and sets no sour-service limits. Where NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 is required, state it on the purchase order as an additional requirement (3.1.8).
