Primarily used in aircraft applications where strength is required but weight is a critical factor. Ti-6Al-4V has always been the first titanium choice in the aerospace industry. Due to the fact that it is not a malleable alloy, it is more commonly used in sheet and plate applications. Regardless, there are still some tubular applications where Ti-6AL-4V is used where strength is critical.
