Product Details, Specifications, and Technical Information
See Beryllium Copper Tolerances
Beryllium Copper Round Bar 172 is a non-magnetic, non-sparking, strong, hard, wear resistant, thermally/electrically conductive metal. These attributes make it ideal for use in hazardous environments where sparks can be deadly. C172 0.625 inch beryllium copper round bar is commonly used in oil, gasoline, natural gas, coal, and aerospace components. However it is also popular for percussion instruments, motor components, and golf clubs.
