So I am wondering about the various "hard use/full auto" rated suppressors made from Titanium. Airlock and some other ultralight hunting suppressor guys have been saying don't heat their titanium cans above 800* or it is permanently weakened.

Can anybody explain the dissonance here to me? I've seen plenty of cherry red titanium torture tests out there and it makes sense that Inconel can's (and now Haynes 282 is a thing) can handle that sort of hard use but what's the deal with Titanium for hard use cans?
