Overview
EN 3456:2012 is a CEN (ASD-STAN) aerospace material standard that defines the requirements for Titanium alloy TI‑P64001 (Ti‑6Al‑4V) in the annealed, hot‑rolled sheet and strip form with a nominal thickness a ≤ 6 mm. This specification is intended for aerospace applications and sets out chemical, metallurgical, heat‑treatment and mechanical criteria, plus referenced test methods and inspection rules.
Key topics and requirements
- Material designation: TI‑P64001 (Ti‑6Al‑4V) for aerospace use.
- Form and production: Sheet and strip, hot‑rolled; applicable for thicknesses up to 6 mm.
- Delivery condition: Annealed (designation code U).
- Heat treatment: Anneal at 700 °C to 840 °C for at least 30 minutes followed by air cooling (AC) in an inert atmosphere.
- Mechanical properties:
- Proof stress (Rp0.2) ≥ 870 MPa
- Tensile strength (Rm) between 920 and 1 180 MPa
- Elongation A (50 mm) ≥ 8%
- Chemical composition limits (as given in the standard):
- Al: 5.50–6.75%
- V: 3.50–4.50%
- Limits for interstitials and impurities (examples quoted): O + 2N ≤ 0.25%, N ≤ 0.03%, H ≤ 0.012%, Fe ≤ 0.30%, C ≤ 0.08%, Y ≤ 0.005%, Ti = balance; total impurities noted.
- Microstructure and inspection: Microstructure and grain‑size requirements are referenced to EN 3114‑004 and EN 2002‑8; dimensional, marking and defect acceptance follow EN 4800‑001, EN 2338 and EN 2032‑2 as applicable.
- Product qualification: Qualification programme to be agreed between manufacturer and purchaser.
Applications and users
EN 3456:2012 is used by:
- Aerospace manufacturers and structural designers specifying Ti‑6Al‑4V sheet for airframe and engine components where high strength-to-weight and corrosion resistance are critical.
- Material suppliers and mill producers to control chemistry, processing (hot rolling, annealing) and delivery condition.
- Quality assurance, inspection and test laboratories implementing referenced test methods (microstructure, grain size, tensile testing).
- Procurement and regulatory teams ensuring supplied material meets aerospace industry material standards.
Relevant applications include lightweight structural panels, cover skins, internal components, and other aerospace parts where annealed, hot‑rolled Ti‑6Al‑4V sheet/strip (≤ 6 mm) is appropriate.
