Whenever an item needs to be made lightweight and high strength, titanium is always considered for its manufacturing qualities. Most titanium alloys possess the same strength as common grades of stainless steel, but are 40% less dense (the weight per volume area). Titanium therefore is commonly chosen in the manufacturing of aircraft parts and medical equipment where strength at a lightweight is important.
