Abstract: In this research work, Tungsten Inert Gas welded titanium sheet of 1.5 mm thickness is considered as candidate material for investigation. Weld joint is prepared using 80 A welding current and 200 mm/min travel speed. Tensile properties are evaluated at room temperature, 250 °C, 450 °C and 650 °C. It is evident that the ultimate strength and yield strength decreases with increase in temperature and also the percentage elongation increases with increase in temperature. At temperatures above 650°C, the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) had decreased to about 66% than the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) at room temperature.
Keywords: Properties Temperature Tensile Welding Tensile.
