Beryllium Copper C17000 bars offer excellent strength and hardness at elevated temperatures, maintaining good thermal stability and electrical conductivity. They are highly resistant to oxidation and wear in high-temperature environments.
Yes, Beryllium Copper C17000 bars can be welded, but it requires special care. Preheating, proper filler material, and post-weld heat treatment are essential to prevent cracking and ensure weld strength.
Yes, Beryllium Copper C17000 rods can be customized in size and length to meet specific requirements, allowing for various diameters and lengths based on the application and customer specifications.
Beryllium Copper C17000 Bars and Rods are commonly used in applications requiring high strength, excellent conductivity, and resistance to wear. Their common uses include electrical connectors, relays, and switches, among others, which require good electrical and thermal conductivity. They also find applications in components such as aerospace and defense springs, bushings, and gears with high stress and fatigue. Because it resists corrosion and retains hardness at elevated temperatures, the alloy is used to make molds, dies, and precision tools. C17000 is also applied in the production of valve seats, hydraulic fittings, and fasteners.
