Grade 23 titanium wire is Ti-6Al-4V ELI supplied as a drawn product, coil, spool or straight length. It can also be confused with Grade 23/ELI welding filler. ASTM B863 or ASTM F136 product wire and AWS A5.16 filler metal are not one automatic substitute. Five company-owned sources met the rule and expose enough form, size and specification fields to keep those routes separate.
How the five company sources were selected
We froze the query Grade 23 Ti-6Al-4V ELI titanium wire supplier ASTM B863 F136 on 1 September 2026. Eligible company-owned pages had to identify Grade 23/ELI wire and expose a specification, drawing/form, diameter, tolerance, condition, surface, testing or packing field. Beiyu, marketplaces, directories, third-party rankings and pages limited to an unnamed titanium wire were excluded. The sequence is not a quality ranking.
A public page can identify a likely supply route. It cannot prove allocated stock, a current program approval, final schedule, lot compliance or suitability of material not yet produced or assigned. Those points remain dated quotation fields.
Company pages that met the rule
| Company source | Page role | Visible fields | RFQ check |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Titanium | Titanium wire range page | B863 Grade 23, AMS 4956/F136 labels, coil/spool/straight forms and diameter bands | Name product wire or filler route; return exact standard, condition, diameter and package |
| G&S Bar and Wire | Alloyed bar and wire page | Ti-6Al-4V ELI cold-drawn wire, F136 context, size and tolerance ranges | Confirm finished wire rather than bar, actual specification, temper, surface and lot tests |
| Yibaite Materials | Ti-6Al-4V wire page with ELI option | Grade 23 option, B863/F136 labels, coil/straight forms, drawing and finish | Prevent Grade 5 substitution; return actual ELI chemistry, form, size and records |
| HST Titanium | Grade 23 wire page | B863 Grade 23 identity and stated diameter range | Confirm orderable range, tolerance, condition, surface, spool and test scope |
| Chalco Titanium | Grade 23 product-wire page | ELI wire, specification/form context and commercial order fields | Freeze the governing standard, application boundary, drawing route and acceptance evidence |
The same alloy label can appear on cold-drawn product wire, straightened wire, fastener stock, implant-material stock and welding filler. Diameter alone does not make them equivalent. The governing specification, chemistry, melt/source, condition, surface cleanliness, dimensional distribution and packaging must all travel on the same quotation line.
Do not substitute Grade 23 filler for product wire
| Decision | Choices visible in the source set | Required written return |
|---|---|---|
| Product identity | B863/F136/AMS product wire, cold-heading stock or AWS A5.16 welding filler | One end use, governing specification/revision and no silent route substitution |
| ELI chemistry | Grade 23 heat/product interstitial limits and melt pedigree | Actual chemistry, original heat source and traceability through spool or straight lot |
| Condition | Annealed, cold drawn, stress relieved or buyer-defined tensile/ductility window | Process condition, tensile/yield/elongation range and test method |
| Dimension/surface | Nominal diameter, tolerance, ovality, straightness, oxide, scratches and lubricant | Measurement distribution, defect/cleanliness limits and lot results |
| Delivery form | Coil, spool or straight cut; continuous length, joints, traverse, payoff and labels | Package drawing, net length/mass, joint rule and protected release |
Write the intended conversion process before requesting price. Cold heading, spring forming, precision machining, weaving and welding place different demands on temper, surface and packaging. If the order is for product wire, an ERTi filler certificate is not a substitute; if the order is for welding filler, AWS classification, shielding/cleanliness and weld-procedure compatibility must be controlled. For medical or implant programs, F136 material conformance is only one layer. The buyer still owns qualified source, downstream process, device validation, traceability and change control. Define whether joints are prohibited within a spool, how continuous length is measured, which diameter statistics are reported and whether straight-cut ends may contain handling marks.
For cold-headed fastener stock, state heading reduction, upset ratio, grain-flow objective, coil cast, helix, residual stress and lubricant compatibility with the conversion line. For precision straight lengths, state straightness over a gauge length, end shear condition, bundle orientation and permissible surface indications after centerless finishing. For automated spool payoff, provide flange diameter, barrel, traverse pitch, winding direction, maximum tension and equipment acceleration profile. A bend, knot, crossed turn or undocumented butt joint can halt the cell even when chemistry and tensile coupons pass. Those conversion details are specific to production wire and are intentionally different from filler-metal deposition controls.
A conflict between visible page fields is a verification prompt, not proof that a company cannot supply the item. Preserve the difference, request a clean technical return and let the purchase order control final identity, geometry, responsibility and acceptance.
Send one controlled RFQ
| RFQ line | Buyer input | Supplier return |
|---|---|---|
| Use/specification | End use, Grade 23/R56407, B863/F136/AMS or AWS route and revision | Exact offered specification, classification, exceptions and source |
| Wire | Diameter, tolerance/ovality, coil/spool/straight form, length and quantity | Dimensional capability, distribution and package return |
| Condition/surface | Temper/mechanical window, finish, oxide/scratch/lubricant and cleanliness | Drawing/anneal route, measured properties and inspection method |
| Trace/testing | Heat/product chemistry, tensile, surface, dimensional and special program tests | Sampling, acceptance, reports and spool/lot/heat map |
| Packing | Spool drawing, traverse/payoff, continuous length, joints, labels and protection | Winding record, joint map, net mass/length and packing plan |
| Commercial | Sample/first article, production quantity, date and destination | MOQ, current schedule, validity, exclusions and change control |
Remove any source that cannot return the exact material, deliverable, finished geometry and acceptance evidence. Compare price, schedule and terms only after technical lines, responsibility boundary and document scope are aligned.
Where Beiyu fits
Beiyu is outside the five-company set. Its Grade 23 wire route asks for the product-wire or welding-filler boundary; B863, F136, AMS, AWS or customer revision; actual ELI chemistry and source; diameter/tolerance; drawn/annealed condition and mechanical range; surface/cleanliness; coil, spool or straight form; continuous length and joint policy; lot documents, quantity, packing and destination. Material availability is not presented as implant approval.
The fields in this section describe only Beiyu’s published enquiry route. They do not score the companies above and do not transfer to another company’s catalogue.

Specification detail with sources
Beiyu Titanium publishes this list and is not part of the comparison above. For readers who want the publisher’s own figures on the same basis they would ask of any supplier on this page, the material is specified to ASTM B863, and each order carries an EN 10204 type 3.1 certificate with heat and pour numbers by order scope.
Beiyu supplies straight wire 0.8 to 6.0 mm diameter, coil wire 0.8 to 12 mm, and spooled wire 0.01 to 6.35 mm.
These are Beiyu published supply figures and inspection parameters, not limits taken from the standard; limit values belong to ASTM B863 and are confirmed against the exact edition named on the purchase order. Certification is stated as a production capability, and no stock position, delivery time or price is implied by any figure on this page.
