What are Titanium Grade 2 Shims?

Titanium Grade 2 shims are thin, flat spacers cut from commercially pure titanium, a grade holding a titanium balance with oxygen capped at 0.25% and iron at 0.30%. The metal has a density of 4.51 g/cm³, melts near 1665 °C, and resists chlorides, seawater, and oxidising acids without the weight penalty of steel. Engineers use these shims where corrosion resistance and low weight are both important in pump housings, heat exchangers, and airframe assemblies.

As a reliable titanium Gr 2 shim supplier, we process every titanium shim in-house on our own slitting lines rather than reselling fixed widths. Material that we issue is annealed to ASTM B265 and slit to ±0.1 mm in any width from 3 mm to 2000 mm. Buyers choose matte surfaces, with a documented quality system governing each stage to dispatch.

Chemical Composition of Titanium Grade 2 Shims

Oxygen governs this grade. Titanium Grade 2 carries up to 0.25% oxygen, the interstitial that lifts strength above Grade 1 while keeping the metal formable. Iron, carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen sit at tight limits.

Element Composition (% max unless stated)
Carbon (C) 0.08 max
Iron (Fe) 0.30 max
Hydrogen (H) 0.015 max
Nitrogen (N) 0.03 max
Oxygen (O) 0.25 max
Titanium (Ti) Balance

Mechanical Properties of Titanium Grade 2 Shims

Annealed Titanium Grade 2 shims reach a 345 MPa minimum tensile strength with 20% elongation, so they punch and form cleanly. Commercially pure titanium ships annealed, so no hardness temper ladder applies here.

Industrial Applications of Titanium Grade 2 Shims

These 5 industries utilise the Titanium Grade 2 shims we slit. In each, buyers pick the grade for corrosion resistance, low weight, or biocompatibility rather than raw strength.

Titanium Gr 2 Shims used in Chemical and Petrochemical Processing

Chemical and Petrochemical Processing

Chlor-alkali and acid plants fit commercially pure titanium shims around heat exchangers, reactor flanges, and pump bodies. Grade 2 resists wet chlorine, hypochlorite, and dilute oxidising acids that pit stainless steel within weeks. The shims maintain their thickness and dimensional accuracy in service.

Titanium Gr 2 Shims used in Aerospace and Defence

Aerospace and Defence

Airframe and engine builders specify Ti Gr 2 shims to set clearances at a fraction of steel's mass. The grade's strength-to-weight ratio and fatigue resistance suit bracketry, actuator mounts, and structural shimming. Slit to ±0.1 mm and supplied against AMS 4902, each shim installs without on-site trimming.

Titanium Gr 2 Shims used in Power Generation

Power Generation

Power plants use Grade 2 titanium shims in surface condensers and heat exchangers cooled by seawater or brackish water. The metal shrugs off the chloride pitting that thins copper alloys and stainless spacers. Condenser tube sheets and support plates take the shims to align mating faces under load.

Titanium Gr 2 Shims used in Oil and Gas

Oil and Gas

Offshore platforms and refineries fit titanium Grade 2 shims where sour, chloride-heavy fluids attack conventional spacers. The grade withstands seawater injection lines, separators, and subsea manifolds without crevice corrosion. Its low density also trims topside weight, which counts on floating production units.

Titanium Gr 2 Shims used in Medical and Surgical

Medical and Surgical

Device makers select Grade 2 titanium shims for biocompatibility and an inert oxide surface. The metal neither leaches nor triggers rejection in contact with tissue. Surgical instrument trays, implant jigs, and diagnostic equipment use the shims to align components and set precise gaps.

Frequently Asked Questions

What thickness range is available for Titanium Grade 2 Shims?

We slit Titanium Grade 2 shim stock from 0.03 mm to 5 mm thick, in any width between 3 mm and 2000 mm. Anything thinner than 0.03 mm falls under our titanium Gr 2 foil range.

What is the standard specification for Titanium Grade 2 Shims?

Titanium Grade 2 shims are made to ASTM B265 / ASME SB-265, with AMS 4902 available for aerospace orders. The grade designation is UNS R50400.

Can Titanium Grade 2 Shims be custom-slit to specific widths?

Yes, we precision-slit Ti Gr 2 shims from 3 mm to 2000 mm wide, held to ±0.1 mm. Send us your width and thickness, and we will slit to it with no fixed standard size.

What is the difference between Titanium Grade 2 and Grade 5 Shims?

The main difference is alloying. Titanium Grade 2 is commercially pure with better formability and weldability, while Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V) adds aluminium and vanadium for higher strength but lower ductility. Grade 2 shims suit corrosion service where forming matters more than load.

Where can I source Titanium Grade 2 Shims in India?

You can source Titanium Grade 2 shims in India from us at Riddhi Siddhi Impex. Our Mumbai warehouse holds Ti Gr 2 shim stock ready for dispatch, and we supply across India and export overseas. Phone or WhatsApp us; quotations are provided within 24 hours.
