What grade titanium is x metal ?
I am asking because I bought the cracked pair from the earlier thread. Never have I welded anything titanium but have plenty of time on steel and aluminum. I can only touch it once. No mess ups. No do overs.
I’ve got a few days to study just how to make my move.
It’s most likely Grade 5. G5 is basically the go-to for consumer products, whereas all others are more for industrial, aerospace and health products. And especially since the X-metal plant’s original purpose was to make golf clubs before Oakley took over, chances are G5 is what it’s tooled for.
I would not bet against Mark.
