What is the strongest metal on earth?

Titanium – This naturally occurring metal has the highest tensile strength to density ratio of any metal, which makes it, pound-for-pound, stronger than tungsten. It scores lower on the Mohs scale of hardness, though. Titanium alloys are strong and lightweight and are often used in the aerospace industry. read more

By Chris Deziel; Updated March 13, 2018 It's useful for scientists and engineers to group metals from strongest to weakest, but the main obstacle to doing this meaningfully is that strength is defined by several properties. read more

The Strongest Natural (Non-Alloy) Metals: Tungsten, Titanium, and Chromium Tungsten has the highest tensile strength of any natural metal, but it's brittle and tends to shatter on impact. Titanium has a tensile strength of 63,000 psi. read more
