Explore our flagship Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V) aerospace and industrial grade fasteners, fully customisable to drawing tolerances.
Galway has established itself as one of Europe's premier hubs for advanced manufacturing, high-specification medical technology, offshore marine engineering, and subsea oceanographic instruments. To support components exposed to extreme fatigue cycles and hostile salt-spray environments along the West Coast of Ireland, industrial procurement requires fasteners that eliminate traditional mechanical failure points.
Yevzo Titanium Metal Co., Ltd., based in the heart of Baoji—China's renowned "Titanium Valley"—delivers high-performance Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5, UNS R56400) screws and engineered components straight from source mills to Irish commercial enterprises, engineering workshops, and research institutes across County Galway.
Grade 5 titanium features an ultimate tensile strength exceeding 895 MPa, matching or exceeding Class 8.8 and Class 10.9 structural steels while reducing joint mass by approximately 44%. This critical ratio minimises rotational inertia and unsprung mass in high-end automotive, drone frames, and subsea robotics.
Under Atlantic saltwater exposure, standard 304 and 316 stainless steels eventually encounter crevice corrosion and pitting. Ti-6Al-4V rapidly forms a tenacious, self-healing rutile TiO2 passive film, offering near-zero corrosion rates in seawater, chlorides, nitric acid, and harsh atmospheric salt fog.
With an extremely low magnetic permeability (μr ≈ 1.00005), our precision fasteners prevent interference in sensitive electromagnetic, biomedical instrumentation, MRI auxiliary fixtures, and autonomous oceanic sensor packages deployed from Galway docks.

Procurement professionals throughout the Parkmore, Ballybrit, and Dangan technology parks, alongside maritime operators along Galway Bay, deploy Yevzo titanium fasteners across diverse engineering scenarios:
Deployments in SmartBay Ireland and offshore wave and wind pilot facilities require fasteners unaffected by microbial corrosion, cavitation, or persistent North Atlantic saline immersion. Gr5 hex and flange bolts ensure housing integrity down to extreme depths.
Galway is a global medtech capital. While internal surgical implants require dedicated clinical workflows, automated production fixtures, laser inspection chassis, and chemical cleanroom racks rely on our clean, electropolished, non-contaminating Ti-6Al-4V fasteners.
From high-performance rigid inflatable boats (RIBs) engineered for Atlantic swell to performance automotive and track-prepped racing machines, reducing rotational unsprung weight with Grade 5 lug bolts and caliper mounts yields immediate dynamic stability.
Over the past three fiscal years, procurement teams across Ireland have shifted away from multi-tier regional stockists toward direct OEM manufacturer partnerships. Supply chain disruptions have reinforced the necessity of verifiable mill certificates (EN 10204 3.1), strict dimensional conformity via multi-axis CNC processing, and rapid DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) air freight straight to Galway consolidation facilities.
Furthermore, sustainability mandates in European light-weighting engineering continue to position titanium as an eco-efficient investment: despite a higher initial unit cost than steel, its indefinite service lifecycle under corrosive conditions effectively eliminates replacement overheads and unexpected operational downtime.
Why Tier-1 engineering contractors choose Yevzo Titanium Metal Co., Ltd. as their verified supplier.
Operating since 2013 in the centre of China's primary raw-material basin, ensuring pure billet origin and complete heat-lot chemical traceability.
Over 100 dedicated CNC turning, multi-axis milling, and thread-rolling machines holding strict dimensional tolerances down to ±0.01 mm.
100% thread gauge checking, optical dimension sorting, ASTM B348 compliance, and EN 10204 3.1 material test certification on request.
Low sample MOQs (from 10–20 pcs for standard catalogue lines) with comprehensive custom surface anodizing, micro-engraving, and custom threads.
