Beryllium copper battery contacts are one of the more popular items manufactured here at atlantic precision spring.
Full hard and mill hardened tempers are stocked on a limited basis.
Beryllium copper is a non ferrous alloy used in springs spring wire load cells and other parts that must retain their shape under repeated stress and strain it has high electrical conductivity and is used in low current contacts for batteries and electrical connectors.
Unfortunately beryllium dust is highly toxic so manufacturing methods that create airborne particulates cannot process it.
4977 is known for allowing excellent detail in your casting combined with high strength and an attractive color.
The commercial grades of beryllium copper contain 0 4 to 2 0 percent beryllium.
20c beryllium copper belmont product code.
Beryllium is also found as a trace metal in slags and fly ash.
Beryllium alloys are classified into two types.
The first of the two families c17200 and c17300 includes high strength with moderate conductivity while the second family c17500 and c17510.
High beryllium content up to 30 beryllium and low beryllium content 2 3 beryllium.
The small ratio of beryllium to copper creates a family of high copper alloys with strength as high as alloy steel.
Mead metals carries alloy 172 beryllium copper in annealed quarter hard and half hard tempers from 0 003 to 0 060.
Beryllium copper or becu is often used in metal spring clips and flat springs because of its elastic properties formability non metallic nature and its electrical conductivity.
