bedra64700

bedra64700 is a heat-treatable and can be cold worked to enhance mechanical strength. It offers excellent wear and corrosion resistance in both marine and industrial environments. Its low friction properties enable its use in plunger tips for die casting machines. Additionally, the alloy possesses high electrical and thermal conductivity along with good notch toughness.

 

Typical applications:

bedra64700 is widely used for electrode arms in resistance welding; contact tips in submerged arc welding machines; and electrodes for spot, seam, and butt welding machines. Additionally, it serves as mold material and motor commutators. The material is also suitable for other components requiring high strength, hardness, and electrical conductivity.
