Medical grade titanium is a specialized class of titanium material used in life-saving applications such as implants, prosthetics, surgical instruments, and medical devices. Known for its biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and strength, medical titanium plays a pivotal role in modern healthcare engineering.
At Ti Time Company, we provide high-purity, certified titanium materials for the medical industry, customized to meet international regulatory standards and the most demanding clinical environments.

2. Medical Grade Titanium Price Overview
The price of medical-grade titanium varies based on grade, purity, form, and compliance requirements.
| Titanium Type | Price (USD/lb) | Application |
|---|---|---|
| Grade 1 / Grade 2 (CP) | $6 – $9 | Surgical tools, housings, and non-load-bearing devices |
| Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5) | $10 – $15 | Implants, orthopedic screws, surgical implants |
| Ti-6Al-4V ELI (Extra Low Interstitials) | Higher than Grade 5 | Load-bearing implants (hip/knee joints, dental implants) |
3. Why Medical Grade Titanium?
✦ Biocompatibility
Titanium is non-toxic and non-reactive, making it one of the few metals suitable for long-term implantation in the human body.
✦ Corrosion Resistance
Titanium forms a passive oxide layer that resists degradation in bodily fluids, ensuring durability and safety inside the body.
✦ High Strength-to-Weight Ratio
Titanium’s strength ensures stability in orthopedic, dental, and spinal implants, while its lightweight nature reduces patient stress.
✦ MRI Compatibility
Titanium is non-magnetic, meaning it is safe for imaging and diagnostic procedures, unlike many other implant materials.

FAQs – Medical Grade Titanium
What makes medical grade titanium different from industrial grades?
Medical grade titanium must meet strict purity and biocompatibility standards (e.g., ASTM F136), with controlled levels of oxygen, carbon, and iron.
What is Ti-6Al-4V ELI and why is it used in implants?
ELI stands for “Extra Low Interstitials,” offering higher fracture toughness and fatigue resistance, making it ideal for load-bearing implants.
Is Grade 2 titanium safe for surgical tools?
Yes, Grade 2 offers excellent corrosion resistance and formability, ideal for tools that contact body fluids but are not implanted.
Can I request customized medical titanium shapes or machining?
Absolutely. Ti Time offers custom-sized bars, plates, rods, and pre-machined parts to suit surgical applications.
What certifications does Ti Time provide for medical titanium?
We provide ISO, ASTM, and CE compliance documentation, as well as mill test reports (MTRs) and third-party inspection upon request.
