C17200 Beryllium Copper for Telecom Battery and SIM Contacts in Telecommunications Devices

NGK positions C17200 Beryllium Copper for telecom battery and SIM contacts in telecommunications devices. C17200, or CuBe2 / Berylco 25, is described by NGK as the reference beryllium copper alloy across strip, rod, wire and other forms. It reaches the highest mechanical strength and hardness of any copper alloy after age hardening while still offering good formability, fatigue strength and stress-relaxation resistance. Telecom equipment uses many small contacts that need spring effect and stable conductivity. That combination is exactly why these products appear in demanding designs instead of being left to cheaper alloys that would tap out early.
