Phehlukwayo Metal, based in Cape Town, South Africa, is a reputable manufacturer and supplier of top-notch copper alloys, including Beryllium Copper C17300 Bars and Rods. Known for their remarkable strength, hardness, and resistance to corrosion, these bars and rods are designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial, aerospace, and electronic applications. With a blend of advanced metallurgical knowledge and precise manufacturing techniques, Phehlukwayo Metal delivers components that are not only durable but also reliable and of high quality. The Beryllium Copper C17300 Bars and Rods excel in electrical and thermal conductivity, fatigue resistance, and wear performance, making them perfect for situations where high performance, precision, and long-lasting reliability are crucial.
These bars and rods are primarily made up of about 97% copper and 2% beryllium, along with a few other alloying elements that enhance their mechanical properties. This unique composition results in impressive tensile and yield strength, high hardness, and excellent fatigue and wear resistance. Mechanically, C17300 can achieve tensile strengths of up to 1400 MPa after age-hardening, while also maintaining great toughness under cyclic loading and dimensional stability across a broad temperature range. The alloy stands out for its exceptional corrosion resistance and themal conductivity, making it a great fit for high-stress and high-performance industrial applications.
