Beryllium copper is also known by several other names: BeCu, beryllium copper or beryllium bronze, an alloy of it 0.5 to 3% beryllium and copper, it has sometimes other alloying elements and has amazing business and metalworking performance qualities.
Features
It is a weldable, machinable and ductile alloy, it is also completely resistant to eating non-oxidizing acids, such as (carbon dioxide or hydrochloric acid) with abrasive ear, plastic products and decompression. Besides its durability, strength and electrical conductivity can be improved and strengthened by heat treatment. This particular material achieves the highest strength of all alloys of copper.
However, there are some security concerns to deal with their contribution to the compounds are toxic. The present no danger to health or as finished parts in a fixed state s, but gives the material to them by processing the material can cause severe damage to the lungs, the compounds human carcinogens results in a known safe copper alloy such as Cu-Ni-Sn-bronze is often used as a substitute.
Used
Beryllium copper is a non-ferrous alloys in load cells, spring wire, feathers and other objects to use to keep their shape, because it is a highly conductive material and no spark, it is often used in low power electrical connections and batteries.
Is non-magnetic, ideal for making tools, these tools differ from the regular instruments as they are safe for use around explosive gases and vapors such as an oil rig. Screwdrivers, chisels, hammers and wrenches are an example of some of the tools of these materials.
