Beryllium copper casting alloys are used to produce parts that require their unique combination of physical and mechanical properties. Casting applications of beryllium copper casting alloys take advantage of the material's special combination of high strength and hardness, excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, and excellent reproduction of fine casting details.
High strength beryllium copper cast alloy
These products have excellent thermal management properties and electrical conductivity. The alloy exhibits good strength, as well as excellent wear, corrosion resistance and material toughness. High conductivity BeCu cast alloys are suitable for applications requiring high electrical and/or thermal conductivity, such as resistance welded assemblies, subsea cable housing assemblies. These specialized alloys with a relatively low percentage of beryllium provide thermal conductivity far superior to most aluminum, magnesium and steel alloys. Chemical composition: High conductivity beryllium copper cast alloy
High conductivity copper beryllium cast alloy
These products offer mechanical strength and hardness values ​​higher than many steel alloys, but have relatively superior thermal and electrical conductivity. These 2.0% to 2.75% beryllium alloys (referred to as "gold" alloys due to their unique golden color) have excellent wear resistance, material toughness and anti-wear properties. High strength beryllium copper alloys are suitable for applications requiring the maximum combination of strength, hardness and toughness. In challenging casting applications that require precise reproduction of fine casting details, high-strength beryllium copper and beryllium nickel alloys provide flow and castability unmatched by other structural alloy systems.
