What is Beryllium Copper?
Beryllium copper (BeCu), also known as copper beryllium (CuBe), beryllium bronze and spring copper, is a copper alloy with 0.5—3% beryllium and sometimes other elements. It has superb metalworking, framing and machining properties. It has many specialized applications in electrical industry, industrail and aviation.

The small proportion of beryllium to copper makes a group of high copper amalgams with quality as high as compound steel. The first of the two families, C17200 and C17300, incorporates high quality with moderate conductivity, while the subsequent family, C17500 and C17510, offers high conductivity with moderate quality.

Where is Beryllium Copper used?
Beryllium copper is a non-ferrous composite utilized in springs, spring wire, load cells, and different parts that must hold their shape under rehashed anxiety. It has high electrical conductivity and is utilized in low-flow contacts for batteries and electrical connectors.

Other Uses:
Ultra-low temperature cryogenic equipment, such as dilution refrigerators, because of its mechanical strength and relatively high thermal conductivity in this temperature range
Servicing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines, where high strength magnetic fields make use of ferrous tools dangerous, and where magnetic materials in the field can disturb the image.
It has important applications in oilfield tools, aerospace landing gears, robotic welding, and mold making applications.
