- Aluminum-Beryllium (Al-Be) Alloy Description:
1) Al-Be alloys consist of physical and mechanical properties that exceed those of standard aluminum alloys in such areas as mechanical stability, dampening, thermal management and reduced weight. AlBeMet combines the high modulus and low density of beryllium with the strength, ductility and fabrication characteristic of aluminum.
2) The Al-Be alloy with a high modulus-to-density ratio (3.8 times that of aluminum or steel) greatly reduces the chance of flexure and mechanical failure.
