This specification covers a copper-beryllium alloy in the form of bars and rods. These products have been used typically for parts requiring a combination of high strength, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance and where thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity and low magnetic susceptibility may be important, but usage is not limited to such applications.
