The hardness of C17300 beryllium copper

After the C17300 beryllium copper undergoes solid solution aging treatment, its hardness significantly increases to HRC 38-43. The key process steps of solid solution treatment (heating to dissolve the beryllium element) and aging treatment (precipitation of strengthening phases) enable it to possess excellent mechanical properties. The high hardness characteristic makes it suitable for manufacturing wear-resistant parts (such as shaft sleeves, gears) and precision molds, which can withstand high-pressure friction and ensure forming accuracy, thereby extending the service life of the components.

Excellent physical and chemical properties

The conductivity and thermal conductivity of the high-hardness C17300 beryllium bronze rod are also very good. The high-hardness C17300 beryllium bronze rod has a high resistance to corrosion in the atmosphere and water. Copper is an anti-magnetic substance.

Good processing performance

The high-hardness C17300 beryllium bronze rod has excellent plasticity and is easy to be cold and hot formed; the cast copper alloy has excellent casting performance. Mechanical properties

For instance, excellent anti-friction properties and wear resistance (such as in bronze and some types of brass), high elastic limit and fatigue limit (such as in beryllium bronze, etc.).

Characteristics and Applications

The high-hardness C17300 beryllium bronze rod integrates excellent mechanical properties, physical properties and chemical properties. After heat treatment (solution treatment and aging treatment), it has the same high strength limit, elastic limit, yield limit and fatigue limit as special steel. At the same time, it also has high conductivity, high thermal conductivity, high hardness, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, good casting properties, non-magnetism and spark-free impact characteristics. The high-hardness C17300 beryllium bronze rod is widely used in mold manufacturing, machinery, electronics and other industries.
