[PSUBS-MAILIST] titanium barrier

[hank pronk]

Jim,
Thanks'  After I sent the e mail, I re-measured the volume of the part with some better equipment.  I measured three times and got an accurate reading.  It works out to be SS almost dead on.  :-(

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.
