It is possible for titanium to be turned, bored, milled, drilled, tapped, broached, planned, toothed, ground, and lapped depending on its type of alloy and the final form that has been requested.

After the titanium is mined, it goes through a series of treatments until it becomes pure metal, or “sponge”. This can then be melted with various other metals to create any desired alloy. This usually comes as an ingot, which is then formed into bars.

A particularly effective way of cutting titanium is the use of a high-powered water jet. The water cools the metal and prevents warping and a range of other negative effects.

Titanium is a famously strong and resilient metal with impressive flexibility and a range of other high performance properties – for example, it is lightweight, hypoallergenic, and corrosion resistant, making it biocompatible and therefore perfect for use in medical implants.

Ti-TEK offers a titanium cutting service to ensure that your titanium bars are always the perfect length. We use low cutting speeds to do this, as this reduces the amount of heat produced. If the metal becomes too hot when cut, tool life can be reduced by up to 80%.

In this article, the team members at Ti-TEK, experts in the manufacture of titanium products and other metal components, explain how we do it.

Q. When backlapping my California Trimmer mower, what is the difference between 80 grit and 120 grit for sharpening? And which should I get?

You may decide to request our titanium cutting services in order to achieve the most accurate finish possible for your materials.

If this is not the desired final form, the titanium may then go on to be shaped into sheets, tubes, and a range of other shapes.

A. It will come on its own separate pallet, wrapped and ready to open. It’s best to coordinate with our delivery company to ensure that it’s put in a secure location at delivery.

If you would like our assistance, guidance, or specialist services in this area, all you need to do is to fill in our straightforward enquiry form.

A. No, the roller will need to be installed once you receive it. However, installation of the roller only takes 10 minutes. Our front rollers are designed to use the existing hardware (nuts, washers, bolts) that secure the stock front caster wheels to your mower. The instructions on installing the front roller will be with the kit. Typically, you’ll need basic tools like a wrench, screwdriver, and possibly a hammer. Before you begin, make sure the mower is turned off, and disconnect the spark plug to prevent accidental starts.

California Trimmer has a long history in the lawn care industry, dating back to 1935. With decades of experience, the brand has earned a reputation for producing durable and reliable reel mowers.

However, the durability of this material has led to the myth that it is exceptionally difficult to cut and shape. This is absolutely not the case as long as you have the know-how and the right equipment for the job.

A. An 80 grit backlapping compound has a rougher texture and is more in line with regular reel mower users. A 120 grit is typically used for fine cutting, typically on 10-blade reel mowers used more frequently during the season.
