Beryllium Copper

Beryllium copper is a copper alloy that contains a small amount of beryllium as an alloying element, usually between 1% and 3%. This alloy is known for its excellent strength, hardness, excellent electrical conductivity and non-magnetic properties, while maintaining high thermal conductivity and good heat resistance. Because of these properties, beryllium copper is widely used in areas that require high strength and good conductivity, such as electrical switches, connectors, springs, and electrical contactors. In addition, beryllium copper also has good weldability and workability, making it easy to manufacture complex components. Its non-magnetic properties also make it suitable for high-precision instruments and devices where magnetism may affect performance.
