Chris,

If you are looking for titanium finish or solid titanium keepers for their superior corrosion resistant properties, I know for a fact that the REC aluminum winding checks are not nearly as corrosion proof as titanium guides. They are merely anodized aluminum. I highly doubt ANYBODY makes a solid titanium alloy winding check with high corrosion resistant properties, but if you're only after the color of the checks to match the titanium finish on your guides, Pac Bay manufactures some that are very close. I typically try to match my winding checks as closely as possible to the finish on my reel seat hardware, but to each his own.

Torin.
