Martin - what is the difference of 6AL-4V and Grade 2 and ?? 6AL-4 Eli

?


6AL4V = 6% aluminum, 4%vanadium, balance titanium. the most widely used
"aircraft" titanium alloy.
6AL4V ELI = extra low interstitial elements. A "cleaner" form of 6AL4V used
for medical purposes mostly
Grade 2: commercially pure titanium. i believe it's 99.6% pure with grade 1
being 99.9, grade 4 being 99.0?

Thanks - normally I can find the composition but the use is sometimes not clear.
