Titanium is the base element in these Russian titanium alloys. The remaining chemistry is controlled through aluminium, vanadium and impurity limits to support strength, corrosion resistance, weldability and stable performance.
Aluminium improves strength, heat resistance, phase stability and lightweight performance in VT6-type titanium alloys.
Vanadium supports beta-phase stabilization, strength and useful plasticity in Ti-Al-V titanium alloys.
Iron, carbon, silicon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, zirconium and other impurities are controlled to maintain consistent mechanical properties, welding behavior, heat-treatment response and MTC compliance.

VT6 / ВТ6 provides high tensile strength for aerospace parts, aircraft structures, pressure cylinders, forged components, machined blanks and welded assemblies. Annealed condition is used where ductility and forming are important, while hardened and aged condition can be selected where higher strength is required.
VT6S / ВТ6С mechanical properties depend on product form, heat treatment and final supply condition. Russian Metals can supply VT6S sheet, strip, plate and bar with MTC, chemical analysis and mechanical testing based on project requirement.
VT6sv / ВТ6св welding wire is commonly referenced with tensile strength around 665–865 MPa and elongation around 12% for wire under GOST 27265-87. Final values should be checked from the MTC and wire condition.
VT6-type titanium alloys can be supplied in annealed, stress-relieved, quenched and artificially aged, hardened and aged, or project-specific thermomechanical condition.
