Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Galling of titanium threads during installation.Always use a high-quality anti-seize compound specifically designed for titanium fasteners and avoid over-torquing.
Using incorrect torque values, leading to under- or over-tightening.Consult engineering drawings or a torque chart for Titanium Grade 5 fasteners to determine the correct torque specification for the M13 size and application.

Common Applications

  • Aerospace structural components
  • Chemical processing equipment
  • Marine hardware and offshore structures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Titanium fasteners can be susceptible to galling; proper lubrication and installation techniques are crucial.
  • Ensure compatibility with mating materials to prevent galvanic corrosion.
