Introduction of Copper Beryllium CDA172(C17200):

C17200 (Class 4) beryllium copper alloys are ductile and produced in mill hardened and heat treatable tempers. C17200 copper alloy has extremely high rigidity and ultimate tensile strength. RWMA Class 4 Beryllium Copper is unique in that it is availabel in heat treatable tempers.

Alloys are used in a wide range of applications requiring high strength and stiffness with good conductivity. These alloys are used for all applications, which require high strength, stiffness and good conductivity. This copper type is commonly used with electrical and electronic connectors, current-carrying springs, precision screw machined parts, welding electrodes, bearings, plastic molds and corrosion resistant components.

The chemical compound of C17200 (Class 4) copper alloy is 97.9% copper, 1.80-2.00% beryllium, 0.20% cobalt.

The physical properties of C17200 are that its density is 8.25 grams per cubic centimeter, and its melting point is 866 degrees celsius. The tensile strength of C17200 copper is over 1380 MPa (200 ksi).

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.
