    grade 9 titanium vs 7075 aluminum

    TVP, thank you for the informative reply... so in summary the 7075 is a better choice than titanium for my use?

    grade 9 titanium vs 7075 aluminum

    thank you for the fast reply... the staff will be tossed, juggled, body rolled, and used as a pole vault. strength to weight ratio is the correct term? so lets say i have 2 poles. both 1600mm in length, both have a 23mm OD, and both have the same exact weight. which one will be the first...
