Description of Beryllium Copper Rod/Bar
Beryllium copper (BeCu), also known as Copper Beryllium and Beryllium bronze, is one of the highest strength copper-based alloys available on the market today. The industrial-grade of beryllium copper contains 0.4%-0.2% beryllium. The alloys are also non-magnetic and non-sparking. Therefore, they provide many ideal materials in many applications. Moreover, because copper-beryllium performs well in most metalworking and joining processes, special configurations can be produced economically.
