Beryllium nickel casting alloys are characterized by their steel-like high strength, toughness, and hardness properties. However, unlike the steel alloys, the beryllium nickel alloy system offers these properties with the additional benefit of superior thermal conductivity. Beryllium nickel casting alloys are notable for their high resistance to wear, thermal shock, and corrosion even at elevated temperatures in the range of 1000°F (540°C). The 40 series BeNiCr Casting Alloys have historically been utilized for high definition precision cast jewelry and commemorative rings, as well as, dental component applications.
