Titanium Wheel Nuts

For anyone that wants a bargain, I've just bought a set of these Titanium ones for £19.20 delivered. Really good quality, I'm happy.

You might be lucky but you might not, there is some perfectly acceptable Chinese produced Titanium and there is some seriously suspect stuff. I had some CP2 sheet that welded horribly, I think it had some very weird contaminants my guess at the time was a few percent Zinc from the contamination I saw. I threw away all the bits I got from the vendor I got them from.

I read somewhere that some Chinese nuclear projects material specifications specifically prohibit indigenously produced Titanium and Inconel from being used in the construction though that could of course be urban myth.

It says.. The Silver and Black color are made of Titanium. ( I know how to spell colour, I'm just quoting)

So does the pigment have Titanium in it?

Definitely is an ad for Aluminium nuts though.
