Ferro Titanium Price Trend and Forecast 2026-2027

The United States paid the most for ferro titanium in Q3 2026: USD 6.20/KG, down 1.0% from USD 6.26/KG in Q2. Import costs, high labor costs and steady demand from aerospace and steel makers keep American prices above the other three markets. Worldwide, the average fell 1.3% to USD 5.22/KG from USD 5.29/KG, mostly because larger supplies of alloy and softer demand from steel makers led producers and traders to lower prices in all four markets. What about Q4 2026? We expect a global average somewhere in the USD 4.99-5.40/KG range, with titanium scrap prices, steel output, demand from steel and aerospace makers and energy costs doing most of the work.

Ferro titanium is an alloy of iron and titanium, usually with 30 or 70 percent titanium. Steel makers add it to remove oxygen and nitrogen and to control grain size in steel, and it is used in welding rods and stainless steel. Prices in this report refer to 70 percent ferro titanium and are quoted per kilogram of alloy. They depend on titanium scrap prices, steel output and energy costs.

Producers melt titanium scrap or sponge with iron in induction furnaces or by the thermite process. China, India, Russia and Europe make most of the supply. Titanium scrap from the aerospace sector is the main raw material, so aircraft production affects supply and cost. Steel mills buy in smaller lots under contract and on the spot market.

Ferro Titanium Price Forecast for 2026

Prices should ease slightly through the rest of 2026. Supplies of alloy are larger and demand from steel makers is softer, but steady demand from aerospace makers limits the size of the decline. Year on year, the global average has moved from USD 5.16/KG to USD 5.22/KG, an increase of 1.2%.

For Q4, the risks are weighted toward lower prices. What could push prices higher? Higher titanium scrap prices, stronger steel output or plant closures would lift prices. What could pull them lower? Lower titanium scrap prices, weaker steel output or larger supplies would lower prices.
