993 exhaust valves - F1 proxies

ConceptNot authorised until engineering review

Non-functional parametric proxies of the Carrera and Turbo exhaust valves to compare packaging and mass between generic steel, Inconel 751 and Ti-6Al-4V, without concluding on engine suitability.

Known limits

  • The public dimensions do not define keeper grooves, seat angles and widths, margins, neck radii, coatings or tolerances.
  • Titanium is not selected for exhaust duty; it remains a comparison requiring measured temperatures and full thermal-fatigue validation.
  • The generated STLs are fit-check-only and must never be installed in an engine.

Post-processing it would need

  • Precipitation treatment per qualified route
  • Finish machining
  • Stem, seat, groove and tip finishing
  • Coating or hard-facing decision after tribology review

What a supplier would have to provide

  • Material heat and lot certificates
  • Process route
  • Dimensional and NDT reports
  • Hot fatigue and oxidation validation
  • Professional engineering release

Titanium route

Alloy
Ti-6Al-4V retained only as a deliberately challenged comparison for exhaust service
Heat treatment
not selected
Hot isostatic pressing
To be determined
  • CT
  • Metallography
  • Surface roughness
  • Dimensional inspection
  • Hot fatigue
  • Oxidation and wear testing
