Beryllium copper our beryllium copper stock is available in various specialty alloys with full sizes available.
C172 has excellent bearing properties with extremly high compressive strengths.
Beryllium copper c172 sheet is in big demand today and one of the reasons for this is that at elevated temperatures it shows a great deal of resistance to stress relaxation.
17410 17460 and 17510 are also obtainable.
172 beryllium copper is very similar to 173.
Special heat treating of the wire at the mill produces a mill hardened hm tempered beryllium copper wire which can then be formed and used without additional heat treatment.
C172 beryllium copper is available in ductile heat treatable tempers and in mill hardened tempers.
Additionally 173 has slightly superior corrosion resistance to 172.
It also meets astm b194 specifications.
Applications are in springs connectors switches and automotive parts.
The ultimate tensile strength can exceed 200 ksi while the hardness approaches rockwell c45.
