Alloy 25 (UNS C17200) is the most commonly specified beryllium copper and is available in several wrought forms. In its age-hardened condition, Alloy 25 attains the highest strength and hardness of any commercial copper base alloy. The ultimate tensile strength can exceed 200 ksi, while the hardness approaches Rockwell C45. Also, in the fully aged condition, the electrical conductivity is a minimum of 22% IACS (International Annealed Copper Standard). Alloy 25 also exhibits exceptional resistance to stress relaxation at elevated temperatures.

Alloy M25 (UNS C17300) offers the strength properties of Alloy 25 with the added benefit of being "free machining." Alloy M25 rod and wire contain a small amount of lead to provide an alloy tailored for automatic machining operations. Lead promotes formation of finely divided chips, thus extending cutting tool life.
