AMPCOLOY 83

AMPCOLOY 83 is a hardenable, [[glossary:beryllium|beryllium]]-free [[element:Cu|copper]]-[[element:Ni|nickel]]-[[element:Si|silicon]]-[[element:Cr|chromium]] alloy from AMPCO Metal. It combines high strength with good thermal conductivity — typical for [[glossary:kunststoffform|plastic molds]], core pins, and electrodes. Unlike [[glossary:berylliumkupfer|beryllium copper]], it's not a health concern when [[glossary:zerspanen|machining]]. Typical analysis: 2.0 % Ni, 0.7 % Si, 0.3 % Cr, balance Cu.
