Abstract

PURPOSE:To aim at reducing the cost of an engine valve, by welding a high heat resistant titanium alloy member to a low heat resistant titanium alloy to forma titanium alloy valve so that the use amount of high expensive alloy is reduced. CONSTITUTION:A high alloy titanium alloy material (for example, Ti-6Al-2Sn-4 Zr-2Mo) 1 is used for the bevel section of an engine valve, which requires heat- resistance in particular. Further, normal titanium alloy (such as Ti-6Al-4V) 2 is used for the shank of the valve. Further, the bevel section and the shank are welded at 3 in the drawing to obtain a given engine valve. Thereby it is possible to reduce the use amount of titanium alloy so that titanium alloy valves which are excellent in heat resistance may be produced at a low cost.
