Aerospace titanium on demand — our strongest material, full stop.
Titanium 3D printing at KAD3D — Aerospace titanium on demand — our strongest material, full stop.
Ti6Al4V (Grade 5) is the aerospace titanium alloy printed by laser powder-bed fusion. It offers the highest strength-to-weight of anything we print, with exceptional corrosion and temperature resistance, and is the alloy trusted across aerospace and medical.
Ti-6Al-4V titanium is the aerospace and medical alloy: lightweight aircraft brackets, motorsport parts, and biocompatible-grade components where maximum strength-to-weight is essential.
Typical applications include Aerospace hardware, motorsport parts, and high-value structural replacements.
Produced with SLM, Titanium 3D printing typically offers a tensile strength around 1050 MPa, elongation at break near 13%, a density of 4.42 g/cm³, a hardness of ~36 HRC (320 HV) and water absorption around 0%. Full technical data is listed in the table below.
For dimensional work, Titanium Ti6Al4V supports a typical layer height or tolerance of ±0.10–0.20 mm or ±0.2% (pre-machining).
This makes Titanium Ti6Al4V a strong choice for parts that need metal, end-use production, heat over 100 °c, outdoor / uv-stable, chemical / moisture exposure, water-resistant and fatigue-resistant.
Finishing options for Titanium Ti6Al4V include Heat Treatment, Machining, Bead Blast and Polishing.
Standard turnaround for Titanium Ti6Al4V is 20 business days, with an express option in 8–10 business days, from order confirmation and delivered Australia-wide.
Commonly chosen for aerospace and defence programs across Victoria and South Australia, where its strength-to-weight and corrosion resistance suit demanding structural hardware.
Raw metallic as-built; bead-blast, machine or polish. Can be anodised for colour marking. The most popular finish is Stress-relieve, then bead-blast and machine critical interfaces; polish where required. Natural metal finish; bead-blast, machine, polish or anodise-mark. Maximum build size is up to 1100 × 625 × 625 mm.
SLM (selective laser melting) fully melts fine metal powder layer by layer to build dense, functional metal parts. You can read more about the SLM process on Wikipedia.
Not sure Titanium Ti6Al4V is the right pick? Include a line about your part's job when you upload your STL, STEP or 3MF file, and our team will sanity-check the choice against the alternatives on cost, lead time and performance — then prepare wall thickness, infill and orientation to suit.

Parts printed in Titanium Ti6Al4V in SLM can be finished a number of ways at KAD3D, from a clean functional surface to a fully painted, display-ready result. The treatments below are the ones we most often apply to this material.
Most popular finish: Stress-relieve, then bead-blast and machine critical interfaces; polish where required.
To make material costs easy to compare, KAD3D prints the same standard model — the #3DBenchy — in every material. The price shown is what that identical benchmark part costs in Titanium Ti6Al4V, so you can weigh materials against each other on a genuine like-for-like basis before uploading your own file.
Benchmark price is a guide for comparison only; your part is quoted on its own size, geometry and finishing. Upload your model for an exact price.
