Beryllium copper alloy is a metal alloy formed by combining copper and beryllium. It is used in specialized applications because it combines features such as high strength, thermal conductivity and durability. Beryllium copper is widely used in the electrical and electronics industries, heat sinks, radiators, laser technologies and aerospace applications.

When beryllium is alloyed with copper, the mechanical properties of the material improve, and characteristics such as thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity can also be enhanced. However, because of the health risks associated with beryllium, this alloy must be processed and handled carefully. Beryllium dust and machining operations involving this alloy can cause serious health issues through inhalation, so production and processing require special safety measures.
