Products

High-strength copper alloy, beryllium copper

ALBROMET-W130

Standards/specification

CuBe2
EN CW 101 C; DIN 2.1247; Type A 4/2

Material properties

Hardened beryllium copper alloy with extremely high hardness and strength, relatively good conductivity, very good spring and fatigue properties, good corrosion resistance, non-sparking

Application examples

Moulds, plastic mould construction, injection moulds, mould cores, mould inserts, hot runner nozzles, jaws, holders, welding fixtures, electrodes for resistance and flash butt welding technology, non-magnetic components, non-sparking tools, high-strength and corrosion-resistant components in marine technology and aviation

Editing instructions

When hardened, machining with carbide-tipped tools. Alternative: Solution-annealed (soft) or semi-hard pre-machining with HSS or carbide, then hardening according to instructions and finishing. Spark erosion
possible. Due to the beryllium content, protective measures are required to avoid the occurrence of dusts/vapors. Process wet, ensure good cooling.
