Abstract
An alpha-beta titanium-base alloy, and fastener made therefrom. The alloy has a combination of an ultimate tensile strength of at least 220 ksi with a minimum elongation of 7% in the solution-treated and aged condition. The alloy has a total beta stabilizer content of 15 to 20%, a total alpha stabilizer content of 1.5 to 3.5% and balance titanium. The alloy may have an aluminum equivalence of at least 3.0%, preferably 4.0%. The alloy may have an aluminum content of at least 1.5%. The beta stabilizer element may be at least one vanadium, molybdenum or iron and the alpha stabilizer element may be one or more of aluminum, oxygen, carbon and nitrogen.
