C17510 Beryllium Copper / C17510 Class III


C17510 Beryllium Copper (RWMA Class III)
C17510 Beryllium Copper offers a high performance material that provides a unique combination of relatively high electrical and thermal conductivity and high stregnth. Class III Beryllium Copper is a heat treatable copper alloy with a high tensile stregnth. C17510 is utilized when a combination of very good mechanical stregnth along with moderate electrical and thermal conductivity is required. The hardness properties of C17510 Beryllium Copper are comparable to tool steel.
