C17300 Beryllium Copper Alloys

C17300 Beryllium Copper Alloys Forms: Bar,Tube,Strip,Wire,Plate CDA173,CW102C,CuBe2Pb Leading manufacturer and supplier

C17300 Beryllium Copper AlloysCube2Pb--C17300(CDA 173) The Leaded Beryllium Copper is identical to a version of lead-containing alloy C17200 and achieves the same exceptional strength after hardening. C17300 rods contain a small amount of lead to provide an alloy tailored for automatic machining operations and the Lead promotes formation of finely divided chips thus extending cutting tool life
