    Highly Machinable 173 Beryllium Copper Rods

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Copper. Highly Machinable 173 Beryllium Copper Rods.
    Combine high strength and machinability. Alloyed with lead, 173 beryllium copper forms small chips that won't clog your tools, making it a great choice for automated production lines. Often turned into bushings and fuse clips, it stays strong under recurring stress and resists wearing down over time.
