Ti 5-5-5-3 titanium alloy heat treatment process having, in weighted percentages, the following composition: between 4.4 and 5.7% aluminum, between 4.0 and 5.5% vanadium, between 0.30 and 0.50% iron, between 4.0 and 5.5% molybdenum, between 2.5 and 3.5% chromium, between 0.08 and 0.18% oxygen, 0.10% traces of carbon, 0.05% traces of nitrogen, 0.30% traces of zirconium, 0.15% traces of silicon, the residual percentage being titanium and impurities, characterised in that the heat treatment of said alloy is carried out by: heating to a first stage of between 810 and 840′° C. and below the &bgr;-transus temperature of the alloy; maintaining at the first stage for one to three hours; cooling to a second stage of between 760° C. and 800° C. without intermediate reheating; maintaining at the second stage for two to five hours; cooling to ambient temperature; heating to a third stage of between 540° C. and 650° C.; maintaining at the third stage for four to twenty hours, then cooling to ambient temperature. Part obtained by this process.
