About the Titanium Screw Kit
Why Titanium?
Titanium is strong, dense and super lightweight. In fact, Titanium has one of the highest strength-to-density ratios of all the metal compounds, making it the best advantage for dropping weight without sacrificing strength or durability.
6AL-4V Grade 5
6AL-4V, or more commonly known as "Grade 5", is a Titanium alloy mixture composed of 6% aluminum and 4% vanadium. It is significantly stronger than pure titanium but more expensive to manufacture. Grade 5 is the most widely used titanium alloy for its excellent combination of low weight, high strength and corrosion resistance.
Features:
- Top quality "Grade 5" Titanium
- Precision CNC-machined for supreme finish
- Roughly 45% lighter compared to traditional steel Lock Nuts

*NOTE: Avoid using impact drivers and hand-tighten only—do not overtighten, as titanium threads can easily strip plastic.
*NOTE: Do not pair titanium screws with titanium lock nuts. Use stainless steel or aluminum nylock nuts instead.
*NOTE: Torque values should be reduced by 20–30% compared to steel fasteners.
*NOTE: Avoid dry fitting and use hand tools for final torque.
