Abstract
This invention generally relates to the field of nonferrous metallurgy, namely to titanium alloy materials with specified mechanical properties for manufacturing the aircraft fasteners. A stock for high strength fastener is manufactured from wrought titanium alloy containing, in weight percentages, 5.5 to 6.5 Al, 3.0 to 4.5 V, 1.0 to 2.0 Mo, 0.3 to 1.5 Fe, 0.3 to 1.5 Cr, 0.05 to 0.5 Zr, 0.15 to 0.3 O, 0.05 max. N, 0.08 max. C, 0.25 max. Si, balance titanium and inevitable impurities, having the value of aluminum structural equivalent [Al] eq in the range of 7.5 to 9.5, and the value of molybdenum structural equivalent [Mo] eq in the range of 6.0 to 8.5, where the equivalents are defined by the following equations: [Al] eq=[Al]+[O]×10+[Zr]/6; [Mo] eq=[Mo]+[V]/1.5+[Cr]×1.25+[Fe]×2.5. A manufacturing method for a stock for high strength fastener includes melting of titanium alloy ingot, production of forged billed from ingot at beta and/or alpha-beta phase field temperatures, hot rolling at a heating temperature of beta and/or alpha-beta phase field to produce a round stock, subsequent annealing of a rolled stock at a temperature of 550° C. to 705° C. (1022° F. to 1300° F.) for at lea…
