Tensile Strength (Min)

In accordance with base mterial specification.

Tensile tests in accordance with EN ISO 6892-1

In accordance with the formula in GB/T 8546

When Titanium Cladding layer is not a part of Design Strength Requirement. Which means total Clad Plate＞38.1mm, in accordance with the spec of base layer.

When Cladding Cladding layer is Part of Design Strength Requirement. Which means total  Clad Plate≤38.1mm,in accordance with the formula in GB/T 8547

Elongation (A)%

NA

In the case of clad steels where the cladding has a lower degree of elasticity than that of the base metal, a tensile test on the cladding after the base has been removed should show an elongation after fracture A5 of at least 12 %.

In accordance with the spec of Titanium layer or base layer,whichever is the lower.

In accordance with the spec of Titanium layer or base layer, whichever is the lower.

Shear Strength

≥137.9 MPa

(Performed when specified by the purchaser)

The shear strength of cladding with a tensile strength of less than 280 MPa should be more than half the minimum tensile strength of the cladding material and, for all other cladding materials, should not be less than 140 MPa, regardless of the direction of testing.
