Titanium has seen increased usage in medical applications such as artificial joints, bone plates, surgical devices, dental implants, screws and many others. What makes titanium so appealing for these applications is its combination of high strength, light weight, corrosion resistance, bio-compatibility and low modulus.  Titanium also has the unique characteristics that allow bone growth and is compatible with MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and CT (Computed Tomography) energy. It is more readily accepted by the body than stainless steel or chrome, and is just as easy to fabricate.

Common Titanium Applications:

• hip and knee joints
• bone screws
• bone plates
• dental implants
• surgical devices
• pacemaker cases
• spectacle frames
• heart valves
• pharmaceutical equipment
• wheelchairs
