Overview of Beryllium Copper Rod and Casting Products

(1) Characteristics of Beryllium Copper

Beryllium copper rods and thick plates are widely used in various fields due to their high strength, high electrical conductivity, high thermal conductivity, wear resistance, fatigue resistance, non-magnetic, non sparking properties, and processability.

Strength

By precipitation hardening, the highest tensile strength in copper alloys can be achieved (over 1350N/mm2), which can even rival that of steel.

Conductivity

The conductivity of beryllium copper alloy is in the range of 20-55% IACS, and it is widely used in applications that require high conductivity.

Thermal conductivity

The thermal conductivity of beryllium copper alloy is approximately in the range of 120~250W/(m · K), and it is widely used in applications that require efficient heat dissipation.

Corrosion resistance

Beryllium copper alloy has steel like strength while retaining the corrosion resistance of copper alloy. In addition, it does not undergo cracking corrosion like stainless steel and is widely used in applications that require long-term corrosion resistance
