Brian Fasteners provides Beryllium Copper C17000 Rods and Bars in Houston, USA, designed for high strength and thermal conductivity. C17000 contains slightly less beryllium compared to C17200, creating a balanced strength, conductivity, and workability profile. It can be age-hardened and is ideal for dynamic parts that need high fatigue and wear resistance. Our C17000 bars, fabricated according to ASTM B196 specifications, are highly utilized in aerospace, power systems, and precision devices. Brian Fasteners maintains premium dimensional consistency and performance through stringent quality controls and state-of-the-art processing.
C17000 has ~1.6% beryllium, remainder copper. Tensile strength > 1,100 MPa following aging. Conductivity ~25% IACS. Provides good hardness, wear resistance, thermal stability, and resistance to corrosion. Non-magnetic and dimensionally stable under load and heat. Simple to machine and age-hardened for long-term strength.
