Detailed Engineering Specifications

Manufactured under strict quality controls, this M13x88mm hex head cap screw is precisely engineered from Titanium Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V). This alloy provides a tensile strength of approximately 950 MPa, a yield strength of 880 MPa, and excellent fatigue strength, all while maintaining a density significantly lower than steel. The M13 diameter, 88mm length, and 11mm head width ensure robust engagement and load distribution. Its inherent biocompatibility and resistance to chloride corrosion make it ideal for environments ranging from aerospace and marine to medical implants and chemical processing equipment.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-torquing the titanium screw, leading to thread stripping or fastener failure.Always use a calibrated torque wrench and consult torque charts specific to Titanium Grade 5 for the M13 size.
Using incompatible lubricants or anti-seize compounds that can react with titanium.Use only lubricants and anti-seize compounds specifically rated for use with titanium alloys. Nickel-based or copper-based compounds are often recommended.

Common Applications

  • Aerospace structural components
  • Medical implants and surgical instruments
  • High-performance automotive and motorsport assemblies

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Titanium Grade 5 can gall if not properly lubricated during installation. Use appropriate anti-seize compounds.
  • Do not exceed the recommended torque specifications to prevent thread damage or fastener fracture.
