[PSUBS-MAILIST] titanium barrier

[JimToddPsub at aol.com]

Hank,
749 grams divided by 139.5 cc = 5.37 g/cc.  That's pretty  close to 
vanadium (5.494) and might be a good guess considering alloy.   Stainless steel is 
going to be close to 8 g/cc.

Today I discovered that I did not leave enough clearance between my new  
drive hub and housing for my reach rods that release the propeller,  grrrr.  I 
had to remove the entire assembly to make a modification.   
Since it is all apart I decided to do a volume measurement to determine  if 
the barrier is ss or titanium.  By my calculations it is  titanium.  The 
barrier is 139.5 cc and the part weighs 749grams.   Titanium weighs 4.506 
grams per cc   Stainless steel is .2904 lbs  per cubic in.  Can someone confirm 
the math.
Hank
