Titanium Forging Procurement Guide
Neutral buyer guidance on procuring titanium forgings — spec, standard, inspection, and what to verify.
Quick Answer
For titanium forgings, specify the grade, forging process, heat treatment condition, the applicable standard, and the inspection and certification deliverables you require.
Checklist
- Specify grade and material condition
- State forging and heat-treatment requirements
- Reference the applicable forging / material standard
- Define inspection scope (dimensional, NDT, mechanical)
- Require certification documents (MTR, FAI if required)
Forgings need defined acceptance
Because forging is a process-sensitive route, the buyer should specify the process and the inspection scope, not just the final dimensions.
KEEP THE GAP
Process capabilities and acceptance schemes are supplier-specific. titanium.blog does not publish process limits.
