Engineering Excellence through Precipitation Hardening and Metallurgical Precision
In the demanding landscape of modern industrial manufacturing, CDA 172 Beryllium Copper (C17200) stands as the ultimate alloy for applications requiring a unique combination of extreme strength, high thermal conductivity, and superior fatigue resistance. As a leading Custom CDA 172 Beryllium Copper Manufacturer, Sichuan Kepai New Material Co., Ltd. provides the global market with specialized alloys that bridge the gap between high-strength steels and high-conductivity copper.
C17200, often referred to as "25 Alloy," is the most utilized beryllium copper alloy because it contains the highest percentage of Beryllium (1.8% to 2.0%). Through a process known as age hardening (precipitation heat treatment), this material achieves tensile strengths exceeding 200,000 psi and hardness levels approaching Rockwell C45, while retaining electrical conductivity significant enough for heavy-duty switchgear and electronic connectors.
Cda 172 offers the highest strength of any copper-based alloy. It is the material of choice for heavy-duty springs, pressure sensors, and load cells where failure is not an option.
With thermal conductivity significantly higher than tool steels, it is ideal for plastic injection molding inserts, ensuring faster cycle times and uniform cooling.
Outstanding resistance to stress relaxation and excellent anti-galling properties make it perfect for aerospace bushings and undersea repeater housings.
Crucial for safety tools in explosive environments and components in MRI machines or high-frequency communication arrays.
Innovating the Future of Strategic Copper Alloys
Sichuan Kepai New Materials Co., Ltd., established in 2017, is a high-tech enterprise integrating research and development, production, and sales. Currently, the factory covers an area of approximately 9,000 square meters, with an office space of about 1,000 square meters. The company primarily engages in the production of strategic emerging new materials for the national 13th Five-Year Plan, including special copper alloys such as tellurium copper, high-conductivity oxygen-free copper, silver copper, and dispersion copper, while also focusing on the research and development of high-conductivity, easy-to-machine, high-strength copper alloys. The products are mainly applied in high-tech fields such as new energy vehicles, 5G technology, laser cutting, and lithium battery relays.
Our CDA 172 production adheres to ASTM B194, ASTM B196, and SAE J461 standards. We ensure strict RoHS and REACH compliance, managing Beryllium content with advanced safety protocols to meet European and American environmental mandates.
Based in the western area of the Sichuan Guanghan Industrial Zone, Kepai leverages China's robust industrial ecosystem. We offer shorter lead times through integrated smelting, extrusion, and drawing processes all under one roof, reducing international logistics bottlenecks.
Every batch undergoes Chemical Composition Testing and Metallographic Analysis. Our state-of-the-art labs utilize eddy current conductance instruments and microcomputer-controlled servo testing machines to guarantee material integrity.
The global demand for CDA 172 is shifting toward miniaturization and electrification. As 5G infrastructure expands, the need for precision-machined connectors that can handle high-frequency signals without heat buildup has skyrocketed. In the New Energy Vehicle (NEV) sector, C17200 is used for battery terminals and relay contacts where high current carrying capacity must be combined with mechanical durability.
Landing gear bushings, actuator components, and non-sparking safety tools for fuel-rich environments.
Downhole drilling tools, MWD (Measurement While Drilling) components, and undersea equipment requiring corrosion resistance.
Shielding gaskets, high-cycle connectors, and burn-in test sockets for semiconductor manufacturing.
