Introduction
The titanium tube 1.5 od measures approximately 38.1 millimeters in diameter (since 1 inch equals 25.4 mm), placing it in a category frequently specified for aerospace, chemical processing, and heat exchanger applications. TSM TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. specializes in precision titanium tubes for aerospace, chemical, and industrial sectors.
Understanding OD Titanium Tube Specifications
What Does "OD" Mean?
OD stands for "Outside Diameter," a critical dimension in tubing specification. When we refer to a 1.5 od titanium tube, we're describing a tube with an external diameter of 1.5 inches. This measurement standard is commonly used across industries, though metric equivalents are also available.
Common OD Sizes and Their Applications
Different OD sizes serve distinct purposes in industrial applications:
1.25 od titanium tube: At approximately 31.75 mm, this size offers a smaller profile ideal for precision instruments and medical devices
1.640 od titanium tube: Approximately 41.66 mm, this larger diameter is often used in structural applications and chemical processing
1.75 od titanium tube: Approximately 44.45 mm, frequently employed in industrial heat exchangers and marine applications
2.5 od titanium tube: At approximately 63.5 mm, this larger diameter tube serves heavy-duty industrial applications
