Material Science & Fabrication
Precision Cold-Rolled Titanium Foil Strip for Japanese High-Tech Manufacturing
In high-reliability Japanese industrial ecosystems, the demand for ultra-thin titanium foil and slit strip extends far beyond standard commercial grade sheeting. Advanced electronics, electrolytic hydrogen production, and aerospace telemetry rely on the strict physical and chemical consistency of titanium strips down to micro-gauges (≤ 0.02 mm). Jiaxing Wexra Titanium Products Co., Ltd. applies closed-loop tension-leveling and multi-roll Sendzimir cold rolling to manufacture titanium strips that strictly adhere to JIS H 4600 standards alongside ASTM B265 parameters.
Precision stamping and laser micro-welding in Japan demand two critical attributes: absolute grain size uniformity (ASTM 7 to 8) to eliminate isotropic tearing during deep-drawing, and precise shape flatness (I-units ≤ 10) to facilitate seamless feeding into automated pick-and-place or stamping dies. Our cold-rolling mills operate with computerized AGC (Automatic Gauge Control) ensuring foil thickness tolerance is held within ±0.002 mm, providing Japanese procurement divisions with unprecedented batch-to-batch repeatability.
| Standard Grade | JIS Equivalent | Gauge Range (Thickness) | Slit Width Precision | Tensile Strength (Rm) | Core Application Focus |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grade 1 (CP Ti) | JIS Class 1 (TP270) | 0.015 mm – 0.50 mm | ±0.05 mm | ≥ 240 MPa | PEM Fuel Cell Bipolar Plates, Acoustic Speaker Cones |
| Grade 2 (CP Ti) | JIS Class 2 (TP340) | 0.020 mm – 1.50 mm | ±0.05 mm | ≥ 345 MPa | Corrosion Barriers, Chemical Sensors, Gaskets |
| Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V) | JIS Class 60 (TAB6400) | 0.050 mm – 2.00 mm | ±0.08 mm | ≥ 895 MPa | Aerospace Shims, High-Frequency Diaphragms |
| Grade 9 (Ti-3Al-2.5V) | JIS Class 61 | 0.030 mm – 1.20 mm | ±0.05 mm | ≥ 620 MPa | Hydraulic Tubing Liners, Structural Foil Honeycomb |
Targeted Deployment
Localized Application Scenarios in Japanese Industry
Strategic deployment of our Grade 1, Grade 2, and Grade 5 titanium strip materials across key Japanese manufacturing sectors.
Hydrogen Energy & Fuel Cells
Supplying ultra-thin JIS Class 1 (CP Grade 1) foil for stamped PEM (Proton Exchange Membrane) electrolyzer bipolar plates. High chemical purity and low iron content (≤ 0.05%) inhibit membrane poisoning and ensure prolonged electrolysis lifespans across Tokyo and Kanagawa hydrogen research clusters.
High-End Precision Electronics
Delivered to assembly contractors in Osaka and Kyoto for camera shutter springs, wearable micro-battery casings, and miniaturized acoustic diaphragms. The non-magnetic nature and high acoustic velocity of titanium provide unmatched resonance clarity with zero electro-magnetic interference.
High-Performance Motorsport & Tuning
Supporting custom motorcycle tuning houses and racing teams throughout Shizuoka and Aichi. Wexra supplies Grade 5 thin-wall shims, exhaust flow splitters, and custom CNC brake rotor bolts that resist thermal fatigue under track operating conditions exceeding 600°C.
Macro Dynamics
Emerging Trends Reshaping Titanium Demand in Japan
The Japanese industrial landscape is experiencing a paradigm shift driven by green transformation (GX) initiatives and extreme lightweighting demands. As Tier-1 and Tier-2 manufacturers align with the Japanese government's Green Growth Strategy, traditional reliance on heavy stainless steels (SUS316L, SUS304) is decreasing in favor of commercially pure and alloyed titanium thin foils.
First, the surge in green hydrogen infrastructure has stimulated exponential consumption of titanium strip materials. Water electrolysis units demand corrosion-proof electrode substrates that can withstand acidic operating environments without ionic degradation. Wexra meets this trend by offering coil stock with custom vacuum annealing cycles, yielding a smooth passive oxide layer that slashes interfacial contact resistance.
Second, the drive toward consumer electronics miniaturization and wearables requires metals exhibiting superior biocompatibility and fatigue resilience. Titanium Grade 1 and Grade 2 foil strips enable micro-stamping of ultra-light enclosures that cause zero cutaneous allergic responses. By providing slitting services down to narrow widths (≥ 3.0 mm) with zero burr (edge burr height ≤ 0.01 mm), Wexra minimizes scrap rates for Japanese high-speed progressive die tooling.

Frequently Asked Questions: Sourcing Titanium in Japan
Clear, technical responses addressing the procurement criteria of Japanese corporate purchasing divisions.
How does your titanium strip and foil correspond to Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS)?
Our titanium strip products are manufactured in compliance with ASTM B265 and can be verified against JIS H 4600 specifications. For instance, our commercially pure Grade 1 corresponds directly to JIS Class 1 (TP270) with carbon, iron, and oxygen limits controlled to match Japanese stamping requirements. Grade 2 maps to JIS Class 2 (TP340), and Grade 5 corresponds to JIS Class 60 (TAB6400). Full comparative chemical and mechanical test sheets are supplied prior to shipment.
What surface finish and slit edge conditions can be guaranteed for high-speed stamping?
We provide Bright Annealed (BA) and Cold-Rolled Pickled finishes with surface roughness values controlled between Ra 0.1 μm and 0.4 μm. For slitting, we use precision rotary carbide shear blades ensuring clean edges with minimal burr (burr height ≤ 5% of material thickness or ≤ 0.01 mm on foils). Deburred and rounded edges are also available upon request to prevent die galling in progressive stamping tooling.
Can Wexra support small prototype batches prior to mass production runs?
Yes. We understand that Japanese R&D pipelines involve extensive functional prototyping. We support pilot coil orders (as low as 5–10 kg for ultra-thin foils) and provide rapid CNC prototype turnaround for custom turned components or stamped samples. Once validation is approved, production scales seamlessly within our 1,000+ m² production workshops.
What anti-oxidation and export packaging methods are utilized for transit to Japan?
To prevent mechanical deformation and atmospheric exposure during sea or air transit across the East China Sea, our coils are interleaved with neutral paper, vacuum-sealed in moisture-barrier film with desiccant, and housed in reinforced wooden crates with internal spool supports. Fasteners and machined parts are individually packed in anti-static, compartmented blister trays to prevent thread impact during transport.
How does Wexra address galling issues when titanium screws are paired with titanium components?
Titanium has a natural tendency toward micro-welding and thread galling under high clamp loads. To counter this, Wexra offers specialized surface treatments including micro-arc oxidation, hard PVD coatings, and uniform anodization. We also supply engineered torque recommendations and anti-seize paste specifications tailored to Japanese industrial assembly protocols.
