Titanium Grade 23 Fasteners are made from Ti-6Al-4V ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) titanium alloy and are known for their high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance and low interstitial content. Grade 23 is commonly associated with applications requiring a combination of strength, light weight and material cleanliness. ASTM F136 specifies wrought annealed Ti-6Al-4V ELI for surgical implant applications, with UNS R56401 designated in that specification. Grade 23 material is also identified as UNS R56407 in ASTM B381 Grade F-23.

We supply Titanium Grade 23 Fasteners in different configurations, sizes, thread forms and finishes according to customer drawings, specifications and applicable standards.

What Are Titanium Grade 23 Fasteners?

Titanium Grade 23 Fasteners are high-performance titanium alloy fastening components manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI. The ELI designation means Extra Low Interstitial, with controlled levels of elements such as oxygen, nitrogen, carbon and hydrogen.

This alloy is closely related to conventional Ti-6Al-4V Grade 5 but has lower interstitial limits. Grade 23 combines titanium's low density with useful mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for demanding applications where weight, material performance and surface durability are important.

ASTM F136 covers wrought annealed Ti-6Al-4V ELI for surgical implant applications and specifies the chemical, mechanical and metallurgical requirements for the material.

➤ ASTM F136 Titanium Grade 23 Screws

ASTM F136 Titanium Grade 23 Screws are manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI material covered by the ASTM F136 specification. The current ASTM F136-26 specification covers wrought annealed Ti-6Al-4V ELI and specifically identifies UNS R56401.

ASTM F136 is particularly associated with surgical implant material requirements, so buyers should distinguish between an ASTM F136 material designation and a general industrial fastener specification. For industrial fastening applications, the required product standard, dimensions, mechanical properties and certification should be confirmed before ordering.

➤ ASTM F468 / F467 Grade 23 Fasteners

ASTM F468 is a specification covering nonferrous bolts, hex cap screws and studs, and its material tables include Ti-6Al-4V ELI Grade 23. Historical ASTM F468M information identifies Grade 23 Ti-6Al-4V ELI with UNS R56401.

When purchasing ASTM F468 / F467 Grade 23 Fasteners, we recommend specifying the exact ASTM edition, product type, alloy designation, dimensions, thread requirements and certification required for the application.

This avoids confusion between material-grade terminology and the product standard being requested.

➤ UNS R56401 and UNS R56407 Grade 23 Titanium

Two UNS numbers can appear in Grade 23 titanium references, but they should not simply be treated as interchangeable.

UNS R56401 is explicitly identified by ASTM F136 for wrought Ti-6Al-4V ELI used in surgical implant applications.

UNS R56407 is identified by ASTM B381 as Grade F-23 Ti-6Al-4V ELI titanium alloy forgings.

Therefore, purchase specifications should state the complete material and product standard, rather than relying on "Grade 23" alone.
