Beryllium Copper C17200 — Machining & Properties
Typical properties, what Beryllium Copper C17200 is like on a machine tool, what it gets used for, and the tolerance and finishes we hold on it — from a shop that actually machines it, not a datasheet aggregator. Every figure here drives our own calculators.
Machining Beryllium Copper C17200
Machinability is rated good — a well-behaved material to machine with correctly chosen tooling and parameters. Brass CZ121 and CZ131 are among the most economical materials to machine — their outstanding chip-breaking behaviour allows high speeds and excellent surface finish. Beryllium copper must be machined with appropriate respiratory controls in place.
Our standard achievable tolerance on Beryllium Copper C17200 is ±0.010mm under normal conditions, with tighter tolerances on critical features agreed at quotation. Standard finishes: As machined. Full material traceability with MTR and CoC documentation on every order.
Typical applications
Non-sparking tools, precision springs, aerospace connectors, semiconductor tooling.
