Most aerospace stuff, i.e. the stuff that's generally talked about in the media, is grade 5.. the stronger/lighter than steel stuff. Not every application requires that strength or expense though. For applications that only need corrosion resistance, or high melting point, the lower grade will work and be cheaper.
