Titanium is chosen where carbon steel, copper alloys or stainless steel will not survive: seawater and brackish cooling water, chloride-bearing process streams, and the corrosive services found in synfuels plants, refineries, chemical plants and desalination. Stage Metals supplies titanium to Sasol directly and prices it for contractors and OEMs working on power station and petrochemical projects.

Which titanium grade?

Grade 2 is the standard choice for condenser and heat exchanger tube. Grade 12, Grade 7 and Grade 16 are specified where crevice corrosion in hot chloride service is a risk, and Grade 9 where higher strength is needed. Our titanium grade comparison sets out the differences.

Questions buyers ask about titanium tube

Who supplies titanium condenser tube in South Africa?

Stage Metals supplies made-to-order titanium condenser and heat exchanger tube across South Africa as the exclusive South African reseller for CSM Group.

Do you hold titanium tube in stock?

No. Every order is manufactured to the grade, size and length you specify, so there is no compromise on the nearest stock size.

Can titanium be air freighted?

Yes. Titanium is light for its volume, so air freight is often practical when a shutdown date is close. Sea freight is the economical option for planned work.
