Mourad Metals is a reliable manufacturer and supplier of top-notch Beryllium Chromium Copper bars and rods, proudly based in Tunis, Tunisia. With a keen emphasis on precision metallurgy and unwavering quality, the company provides copper alloy products that align with international standards and meet the rigorous demands of various industries. Mourad Metals skillfully blends cutting-edge production methods with stringent quality control to guarantee outstanding dimensional accuracy, surface finish, and overall performance. Catering to a wide range of industries both locally and globally, the company is dedicated to being dependable, ensuring timely deliveries, and offering tailored solutions for applications that require exceptional strength, conductivity, and durability.
Beryllium Chromium Copper bars and rods are mainly made from copper mixed with specific amounts of beryllium and chromium, which boosts their strength and thermal stability. The beryllium content typically falls between 0.4% and 2%, while chromium enhances hardness and helps resist softening at higher temperatures. These alloys are known for their impressive tensile strength, good fatigue resistance, and excellent wear characteristics, all while maintaining solid electrical and thermal conductivity. They also resist corrosion well and can be heat-treated to achieve a broad spectrum of mechanical properties.
