The “King” of all high-strength Copper Alloys, C17200 (AMS 4650 / AMS 4535) non-magnetic alloy offers the best of all worlds when it comes to engineering requirements. Strength, conductivity, ductility, corrosion resistance, machineability, and form-ability—all rival most any other alloy, Copper or otherwise.

Copper Beryllium Alloys, which get their strength from precipitation heat treating, are used in Aerospace, Oil & Gas, Marine, Electronics, Performance Racing, and Plastic Mold tooling—as well as any market where rigorous performance is required. C17200 applications include large aircraft bearings and bushings, down hole drilling components, valve components, air bag sensors, fire suppression, welding equipment, computer connectors, shielding, springs, gears, plastic mold tooling and electrical switch relays.

Alloy C17200 (AMS 4650 / AMS 4535 Properties & Benefits:

  • Moderate electrical and thermal conductivity
  • Excellent for galling resistance
  • Excellent machineability
  • Low friction properties
  • Excellent corrosion and erosion resistance
  • Non-magnetic
  • Multiple tempers
  • Able to anneal and re-age
