Product Overview
Beryllium Copper C17200 nuts are high-performance fasteners manufactured from a copper-beryllium alloy (UNS C17200) conforming to ASTM B194 and ASTM B196. This precipitation-hardened alloy contains 1.8-2.0% beryllium, providing a unique combination of high strength (up to 1380 MPa), excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, and outstanding resistance to stress relaxation and galling.
Beryllium Copper C17200 nuts are non-magnetic, spark-resistant, and maintain their mechanical properties across a wide temperature range. They are widely specified for critical bolted joints in electrical, aerospace, oil & gas, and instrumentation applications where conventional copper alloys or stainless steels are inadequate.
