CUBERYLLIUM® manufactures copper beryllium in several distinct compositions.

These fall into two categories: high strength beryllium copper alloys 172(UNS. C17200),173(UNS. C17300),170(UNS. C17000), and copper alloys selected for high conductivity 751(UNS. 17510),750(UNS. 17500),741(UNS. 17410).

We also Supply Master alloy : CuBeryllium-200, CuBeryllium-275, CuBeryllium-350 and Cuberyllium-400 to global factory.

Introduction of C17200 Beryllium Copper Alloy:

The "King" of all high-strength copper alloys, C17200 (AMS 4590 / AMS 4530) non-magnetic alloy offers the best of all worlds when it comes to engineering requirements. Strength, conductivity, ductility, corrosion resistance, machineability, and form-ability—all rival most any other alloy, Copper or otherwise.

The most important Technology of CUBERYLLIUM ®

A: Heat treatment

Heat treatment is the most important process for this alloy system. While all copper alloys are hardenable by cold working, beryllium copper is unique in being hardenable by a simple low temperature thermal treatment. It involves two basic steps. The first is called solution annealing and the second, precipitation or age hardening.

B: Solution Annealing

For the typical alloy CuBe1.9 (1.8- 2%) the alloy is heated between 720°C and 860°C. At this point the contained beryllium is essentially “dissolved” in the copper matrix (alpha phase). By rapidly quenching to room temperature this solid solution structure is retained. The material at this stage is very soft and ductile and can be readily cold worked by drawing, forming rolling, or cold heading. The solution annealing operation is part of the process at the mill and is not typically used by the customer. Temperature, time at temperature, quench rate, grain size, and hardness are all very critical parameters and are tightly controlled by ohmalloy.

C: Age Hardening

Age hardening significantly enhances the material’s strength. This reaction is generally carried out at temperatures between 260°C and 540°C depending on alloy and desired characteristics. This cycle causes the dissolved beryllium to precipitate as a beryllium rich (gamma) phase in the matrix and at the grain boundaries. It is the formation of this precipitate which causes the large increase in material strength. The level of mechanical properties attained is determined by the temperature and time at temperature. It should be recognized that beryllium copper has no room temperature aging characteristics.
