Product Code : ME-BeCu-5N-SF
Beryllium copper tube is a type of metal tube made from an alloy of copper and beryllium. The precise amount of beryllium in the alloy varies, but typically ranges from 0.5 to 3% by weight. The alloy has a unique combination of properties that make it ideal for a range of applications.
Beryllium copper tubes are known for their high strength, ductility, and electrical conductivity. They also exhibit excellent resistance to corrosion, wear, and fatigue, making them ideal for use in high-stress applications that require exceptional mechanical or electrical properties. The tubes are typically manufactured using a process called extrusion, where a metal billet is forced through a die to create the desired tube shape.

Typical Applications:
Beryllium copper tubes are commonly used in electrical and electronic systems due to their high electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion. They are also used in a range of other industries, including aerospace and defense, automotive, and medical systems. Applications include heat exchangers, pneumatic and hydraulic systems, conductive springs, and antennas.
It is important to note that beryllium is a toxic substance, and proper handling and safety precautions must be taken during the manufacturing and use of beryllium copper tubes. Workers should be trained to handle the material safely, and suitable personal protective equipment should be used to minimize exposure to beryllium dust or fumes.
