The chain is fine...but I ordered the wrong size. Nine links of the chain I ordered equals six of the size I wanted. My error...
How can I straighten out the springs? I can't use them coil uo as is.

When your project demands a material that won't corrode, won't flex under load, and won't add unnecessary weight, standard steel or aluminum simply falls short. Engineers, makers, and fabricators who need a reliable, biocompatible, and chemically resistant metal turn to TA2 grade pure titanium plate — available here in a wide range of thicknesses and sheet sizes to match your exact build requirements.
Each sheet is TA2 commercially pure titanium (equivalent to ASTM Grade 2), offering a balanced combination of strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance. Thickness options span 0.5 mm (0.020") through 18 mm (0.709"), and sheet dimensions are available in 100 × 100 mm (3.94" × 3.94") and 200 × 200 mm (7.87" × 7.87"). Packing quantities of 1, 3, or 5 pieces allow you to order exactly what your project needs without waste.
Typical applications include custom aerospace brackets and heat shields, marine hardware and saltwater-exposed fixtures, medical device prototyping and implant-adjacent components, chemical processing equipment liners, and lightweight structural panels for RC aircraft or drone frames — all use cases where a titanium metal sheet for DIY fabrication outperforms conventional alternatives.

For shims, gaskets, or thin structural skins, 0.5–1 mm is typically sufficient. For brackets, enclosures, or load-bearing panels, 1.5–3 mm offers a good balance of rigidity and weight. Thicknesses of 4 mm and above are suited to heavy structural components, tooling fixtures, or applications requiring significant impact resistance. If you are unsure, select your variant above or contact us to confirm the best match for your load and geometry requirements.
TA2 (ASTM Grade 2) is the most widely used commercially pure titanium grade. It offers better strength than TA1 (Grade 1) while retaining excellent ductility and corrosion resistance. TC4 (Ti-6Al-4V, Grade 5) is an alloy with significantly higher strength but lower ductility and is harder to weld and form. For most DIY, marine, chemical, and medical prototyping applications, TA2 provides the optimal balance of workability and performance.
Yes. TA2 titanium is one of the most corrosion-resistant metals available for marine use. It forms a passive oxide layer that is highly stable in seawater, chlorinated water, and brackish environments — making it an excellent choice for boat fittings, underwater housings, and coastal structural hardware without any additional coating.
Titanium can be cut with carbide-tipped tools, laser cutters, waterjet machines, or angle grinders fitted with appropriate discs. Drilling requires sharp HSS or carbide bits, low speed, and consistent feed pressure to avoid work-hardening. TIG welding is the recommended joining method — use argon shielding gas on both sides of the weld to prevent oxidation. Avoid high-speed dry cutting without coolant, as titanium has low thermal conductivity and can overheat quickly.
TA2 commercially pure titanium is widely recognized as biocompatible — it is non-toxic, hypoallergenic, and does not corrode in bodily fluids. It is commonly used in medical device prototyping, dental implant components, and body-contact hardware. However, for regulated medical implant use, always verify compliance with the applicable standards (e.g., ISO 5832-2, ASTM F67) for your specific application.
For prototyping, the 100 × 100 mm size in a 3-piece or 5-piece pack is typically the most cost-effective starting point — it gives you multiple identical blanks to iterate on without committing to large sheet stock. If your design requires larger blanks or you need to nest multiple parts, the 200 × 200 mm option provides more usable area per piece. Select your preferred thickness and quantity combination from the variant selectors above.
Surface finish varies by thickness and production batch. Thinner sheets (0.5–1.5 mm) typically have a smooth rolled finish, while thicker plates (2 mm and above) may have a mill-scale or lightly pickled surface. If a specific surface finish (e.g., brushed, polished, or anodized) is required for your application, please contact us to confirm availability before ordering.
