What is Titanium Grade 12?

Titanium Grade 12 (Ti-0.3Mo-0.8Ni, UNS R53400) adds molybdenum and nickel to commercially pure titanium to provide improved resistance to reducing acids — particularly crevice corrosion in reducing chloride environments — without palladium (lower cost than Grade 7). Mo and Ni shift the free-corrosion potential positively, stabilising the passive film. Titanium Grade 12 fasteners are used in chemical plant handling reducing acid and chloride streams, tube-and-shell heat exchangers in aggressive service, and chemical reactor internals where Grade 2 fails in crevice conditions but Grade 7 cost cannot be justified.

Chemical Composition

Titanium Grade 12 is alloyed with 0.3% molybdenum and 0.8% nickel, small additions that significantly enhance strength while maintaining excellent weldability and formability compared to commercially pure titanium. These alloying elements refine the microstructure, improving resistance to crevice corrosion and stress corrosion cracking in chloride-rich and reducing environments. The near-alpha structure ensures stability at elevated temperatures without compromising ductility, making the alloy a practical alternative to more expensive titanium grades and stainless steels in demanding applications.

Engineering benefits include superior corrosion resistance in seawater, brine and mildly reducing acidic media, along with excellent strength-to-weight ratio suitable for high-performance fasteners. Its high temperature capability up to 480°C, combined with resistance to hydrogen embrittlement and galvanic corrosion, makes Grade 12 fasteners ideal for marine, chemical processing and aerospace assemblies requiring long-term reliability, reduced maintenance and dependable mechanical performance under cyclic loading conditions.

Applications

Titanium Grade 12 Fastener Applications

Titanium Grade 12 Fasteners from RealBolt Engineering Industries are specified wherever corrosion resistance, elevated-temperature strength, or chemical media compatibility is critical to fastener performance. Primary industries and end-uses for Titanium Grade 12 fasteners include mo-ni alloy; excellent reducing acid resistance; heat exchangers.
Titanium Grade 12 bolts, nuts and washers are used on seawater pumps, piping supports, desalination equipment and splash-zone assemblies where resistance to chlorides and crevice attack is critical.
Grade 12 titanium fasteners perform well in many oxidizing chlorides, wet chlorine environments, dilute acids and chemical plant services where stainless steels or standard titanium grades may suffer localized corrosion.
The alloy is widely selected for fastening tube sheets, covers, baffles and external hardware on heat exchangers, evaporators and brine concentrators that operate in hot saline conditions.
Titanium Grade 12 fasteners are used around chlorine dioxide systems, bleaching equipment and wet process areas because the nickel and molybdenum additions improve reliability in aggressive chloride-bearing media.

Answers for Buyers

Frequently Asked Questions About Titanium Grade 12 Fasteners

Browse the questions below to get quick, expert answers about Titanium Grade 12 Fasteners — covering alloy specifications (UNS R53400), applicable standards (ASTM B348), temperature ratings, corrosion performance, and how to source certified Titanium Grade 12 fasteners from RealBolt Engineering Industries.
Grade 12’s Mo+Ni additions raise the critical crevice temperature (CCT) in reducing chloride environments significantly above Grade 2. Mo provides direct corrosion inhibition; Ni provides a cathodic depolarising effect similar to (but weaker than) Pd in Grade 7. Grade 12 resists crevice corrosion in hot reducing acids where Grade 2 fails.
Heat exchanger tubesheet bolting in H2SO4/Cl- mixed streams, chemical reactor inspection flange studs in acidic chloride service, HCl absorption tower internals and scrubber components where Grade 2 fails in crevice conditions under gaskets and under deposits.
ASTM B348 Grade 12 (bar), ASTM B338 Grade 12 (seamless tube), ASME SB-348 Grade 12 (pressure vessels). MTC includes Mo and Ni content verification by ICP analysis. Supplied in the annealed condition with EN 10204 3.1 MTC.
Titanium alloys are listed in NACE MR0175 — Grade 12 with Mo+Ni additions has the same basic listing as CP grades. For specific H2S environments, verify the current NACE MR0175/ISO 15156 Part 3 Table A.2 listing. Contact our technical team for NACE sour-service documentation for Grade 12.
