Beryllium Copper C172 Sheet

Its strength and hardness is similar to that of steel.

Beryllium copper c172 sheet.

In its age hardened condition it attains the highest strength and hardness of any commercial copper base alloy. 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 bronze pipe. The hardness of beryllium copper c172 can reach rockwell c45.

It has excellent metalworking forming and machining qualities. C172 has excellent bearing properties with extremly high compressive strengths. Also in the fully aged condition the electrical conductivity is a minimum of 22 percent iacs. Beryllium copper combines high strength with non magnetic and non sparking qualities.

This alloy also has great galling resisitance. C172 beryllium copper alloy wire cube2 download pdf. Cda 172 strength and hardness is similar to that of steel. Full hard and mill hardened tempers are stocked on a limited basis.

C17200 beryllium copper is an excellent material for a number of applications. Beryllium copper alloys combine form ability with very high strength properties when aged. Beryllium copper c172 is also known as alloy 25 sheet and c17200 sheet. 17410 17460 and 17510 are also obtainable.

To achieve it s high strengths whilst still maintaining acceptable levels of toughness for many industrial applications cda 172 is age hardened. Add to wishlist added to wishlist removed from wishlist. C17200 also has siginificant non corrosive properties when exposed to harsh conditions. The high strength beryllium coppers c172 can be purchased in the solution annealed or cold worked tempers and can be easily formed or machined.

Mead metals carries alloy 172 beryllium copper in annealed quarter hard and half hard tempers from 0 003 to 0 060. The ultimate tensile strength can exceed 200 ksi while the hardness approaches rockwell c45. It has many excellent properties such as it can attain the hardness as well as the strength of any copper base alloy that is used in commercial purposes.
