According to the machinability ratings [1], Inconel 700 is rated at 0.09 (less is harder) and Inconel 702 at 0.11, while most of the Titanium alloys are above 0.15. There&#x27;s a single Titanium alloy family (MST) in the table that is just as hard to machine as Inconel 700.<p>So, you&#x27;re technically correct: generally, they are on the same scale. And your argument about ignitability is certainly true.<p>1. <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.quakerchem.com&#x2F;wp-content&#x2F;uploads&#x2F;pdf&#x2F;skill_builders&#x2F;no10_machinability_ratings.pdf" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.quakerchem.com&#x2F;wp-content&#x2F;uploads&#x2F;pdf&#x2F;skill_build...</a>
