Titanium Grade 2 Pipes

In short: Titanium Grade 2 pipe to ASTM B861 (seamless) or B862 (welded) is used for seawater, chlorine and chemical lines where it is essentially immune to chloride pitting at ambient and moderate temperatures.

Why this combination

Why Titanium Grade 2 in pipes

Most widely used CP titaniumImmune to seawater and wet chlorine corrosionGood weldability and formabilityAbout 57% of the density of steel

Commercially pure titanium forms a stable oxide that resists seawater and many oxidising chlorides better than stainless or nickel alloys in those conditions.

It is light (about 4.5 g/cm³), so weight per metre is roughly half that of steel pipe.
