Titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5 / 23)

Titanium mixed with small amounts of aluminium and vanadium. It is stronger than pure titanium, so it suits narrow implants and aggressive thread designs. BioHorizons, ZimVie, MIS and Alpha-Bio use it.

✓ Advantages

  • About twice as strong as Grade 4
  • Good for narrow implants

✗ Limitations

  • Contains aluminium and vanadium, which some patients prefer to avoid
