Everyday uses for titanium range from shafts for golf clubs and pool cues to frames for bicycles and tennis raquets. You'll also find titanium in such vehicle components as inlet valves, exhaust valves, valve springs, valve retainers, rocker arms, connecting rods and suspension springs. In finer automobiles, of course. That's why it's widely used for surgical implants and devices. In fact, titanium replacements for hips and other joints have been going strong for over 30 years.
Titanium is also a popular choice for jewelry.
Not only because jewelry designers like its strength and corrosion resistance, but because they relish the fact that they can produce a range of colors by anodizing or heating the titanium. All rights reserved.
