DMS 1879 - 6Al-6V-2Sn Titanium Alloy Sheet, Strip, and Plate (Boeing/Douglas, Annealed)
DMS 1879 is the Boeing / McDonnell Douglas Material Specification for 6Al-6V-2Sn Titanium Alloy sheet, strip, and plate in the annealed condition. This DMS specification covers material procurement requirements for 6Al-6V-2Sn titanium sheet product forms used on Boeing and Douglas aerospace programs requiring the higher strength potential of the Ti-662 alloy system.
Sheet and plate per DMS 1879 are used in Boeing and Douglas aircraft airframe panels, structural skins, and formed components where the material will be subsequently heat treated or used in the annealed condition for maximum formability.
6Al-6V-2Sn titanium alloy offers higher strength than 6Al-4V in the solution treated and aged condition, making it the preferred choice for the most highly stressed aerospace structural applications where standard 6Al-4V STA cannot meet design requirements.
