We are a world-class supplier of engineering raw materials. Our objective is to provide all our customers, from the small machine shop to the large multi-national corporation, a supply path that continuously delivers the highest levels of service, quality and value.
Alloy 165 is a beryllium-copper alloy which displays good strength. The material is non-magnetic and non-sparking with good conductivity. The alloy is easily machined and weldable using established welding methods. Alloy 165 also offers good strength in cryogenic conditions. The alloy inherently has good wear resistance.
Alloy 165 offers inherently good wear resistance. Threaded joints of beryllium copper in contact with itself and also stainless steels show good resistance to galling.
Alloy 165 is a non-sparking, non-magnetic alloy which offers good strength and good conductivity. The alloy can be easily machined with similar characteristics to free-cutting copper alloys or stainless steels.
Commercial applications for this engineering material include:
We stock Alloy 165 in a variety of shapes.
