AlTi5B1 Grain Refiner Rod AlTi5B1 · Ingot · Master Alloys
AlTi5B1 Grain Refiner Rod is traded in ingot form, sourced from master alloy producers. Ingots are cast blocks of primary or secondary aluminium, sold as standard ingots, sows, T-bars, notch bars or shots. Primary ingots are smelter metal graded by purity; alloy ingots are remelted metal made to a casting alloy chemistry such as ADC12 or LM6.

What to check before you buy
- Chemical composition: List the alloy standard and the limits for key elements such as Si, Cu, Fe, Mg, Zn and Mn. Ask for a composition report with every lot and keep the right to test on arrival.
- Packing: Agree how material is bundled, strapped, palletised or wrapped, and how it is protected from moisture and damage in transit. Poor packing is a common cause of claims.
- Grain refining: Grain refining, usually with an Al-Ti-B master alloy, gives a finer, more even structure. Ask whether billets or ingots are grain refined and with what.
- Lot check: Agree the grade or alloy designation, the purity or composition limits and the spectro report that will travel with each lot. Check weight per piece, bundle strapping, surface cleanliness (no dross, moisture or oxide pockets) and the heat or lot marking on the ingots.
