Direct shipment from Jovzi Titanium Industry Co., Ltd. in Baoji, China's Titanium Valley. Fully certified with 100% material traceability, EN 10204 3.1 mill inspection certificates, and ultrasonic flaw detection.
For heavy machining facilities, thermal reactors, and structural fabrication projects across the Pyongyang metropolitan zone and nearby industrial satellites (such as Nampo and Hungnam chemical corridors), selecting the proper alloy grade, forging ratio, and thermal conditioning is decisive for equipment longevity. Titanium square bars (also categorized as square billets, square rods, and blocks) manufactured by Jovzi Titanium are melted from 100% virgin grade 0 vacuum-arc double or triple-melted (VAR) titanium sponge. This ensures that interstitial impurities including Carbon (C), Nitrogen (N), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O) remain strictly within ASTM B348, AMS 4928, and ASME SB348 tolerances.
Each titanium square billet undergoes multi-directional open-die forging using hydraulic presses exceeding 2,500 metric tons. A forging reduction ratio of > 4:1 completely crushes as-cast dendritic microstructures, creating ultra-fine equiaxed grains and eliminating internal micro-voids.
Titanium spontaneously creates a stable, protective TiO₂ oxide film when exposed to oxygen or moisture. This provides near-total resistance to wet chlorine gas, chlorate solutions, nitric acid, ferric chloride, and industrial cooling seawater, avoiding pitting and stress cracking.
Supplied in milled, cold-drawn, or precision-planed conditions with surface roughness Ra ≤ 1.6 μm. Side-to-side perpendicularity and flat faces minimize setup time and tool wear when indexing square bars for multi-axis CNC milling centers.

* Values indicate minimum mechanical standards at room temperature (20°C) in annealed condition per ASTM B348 / ASME SB348 specifications. Jovzi supplies certified test results from BaoTi Test Center for every mill production heat.
Heavy manufacturing, fertilizer synthesis, power generation, and chemical process plants operating within Pyongyang and connected industrial hubs require reliable structural and flow-control materials that operate without catastrophic failure under corrosive reagents and cyclic thermal stress.
Conventional 316L and 904L stainless steels frequently suffer severe pitting and stress corrosion cracking in high-chloride, acidic, or wet chlorine media. Jovzi's precision-forged titanium square bars are routinely machined into the following mission-critical components:
Jovzi Titanium maintains high CNC accuracy across all hot-forged, hot-rolled, and cold-drawn square profiles:
Economic planning and factory modernizations in the capital and coastal industrial regions emphasize longevity, lower downtime, and material upgrades from ordinary carbon and stainless steels to refractory and corrosion-resistant alloys.
Industrial chemical processing is shifting away from rubber-lined or glass-lined steel vessels toward solid titanium Gr2 and Gr12 square bar components. The upfront investment in titanium is recouped through reductions in maintenance and shutdown times.
Procurement offices require comprehensive EN 10204 3.1 certification. Independent testing from third parties like the BaoTi Test Center verifies elemental chemistry, mechanical tensile limits, and grain size conformity before dispatch.
To reduce cutting chips and save CNC machining hours, buyers increasingly order customized square bar dimensions cut directly to length, minimizing material scrap rates for large component fabrication.
Headquartered in Baoji—widely recognized as China's "Titanium Valley"—Jovzi Titanium Industry Co., Ltd. has delivered precision titanium materials, ASTM B381 forgings, ASME B16.5 flanges, and industrial parts since 2006. With an engineering team including 4 senior and 5 intermediate metallurgical engineers, we maintain strict quality control from raw sponge to final packaging.
We use exclusively 0A and 0-grade titanium sponge, verifying impurity concentrations (Fe ≤ 0.05%, O ≤ 0.07%, C ≤ 0.02%) before vacuum arc remelting.
Forging presses exceeding 2,500T refine grain boundaries through multiple thermal-deformation cycles, ensuring high internal consistency across large billets.
Computerized vacuum heat treatment eliminates internal residual stress, preventing deformation or distortion during subsequent CNC wire-cutting or milling.
100% of bars undergo ultrasonic testing per AMS 2631 Gr.A/AA or ASTM B348 standards to detect interior defects, voids, or non-metallic inclusions.
Modern CNC planers and grinders ensure precise dimensions with tight tolerances (±0.2mm to ±0.5mm) and uniform surface roughness.
Billets are wrapped in moisture-proof barrier foil, cushioned, and crated in heavy fumigated plywood cases suitable for cross-border transit.
