  1. PDF icon Case Study: Oil and Gas Valve For Drill Stem Testing

    Read our new oil and gas case study to see how our team of experts worked with a customer to analyze a competing material’s failure in a valve used for drill stem testing. The analysis also includes a comparison of the competing material to our Alloy 25.

  2. PDF Document Galling Resistance of Alloy 25 and ToughMet 3 to Various Materials

    Galling occurs when metals adhere to each other during sliding contact. This is especially important when considering threaded connections that need be assembled rapidly and repetitively as required in drill string applications.

  3. PDF Document Materials for Solar Energy

    Learn about Materion's range of materials for the solar energy market.

  4. PDF icon Technical Review - Analysis of ToughMet 3 and Cu-14Ni-3Al

    Technical Reviews are detailed comparisons of Materion products to competitor materials. ToughMet® 3 and Cu-14Ni-3Al are both high strength copper alloys commonly used in the marine and oil and gas industries, but significant differences are realized when their properties are compared. This Technical Review discusses those differences that make ToughMet an advantageous replacement for the nickel bronze alloy in demanding applications and severe environments.

  5. PDF icon Tech Brief - Cavitation Resistance of Selected Copper Alloys

    Materion ToughMet® and copper-beryllium products are highly resistant to cavitation.

  6. PDF icon Tech Brief - A Guide to Galvanic Corrosion

    Galvanic can occur when two or more dissimilar metals contact each other in an electrolytic environment. This can occur in seawater, chemical processing, or in automotive fasteners and connectors exposed to road salt spray. It is important to understand the relative position of metals on the galvanic series when they will be coupled near an electrolytic solution.

  7. PDF icon Brochure - Alloy 25 For The Oil And Gas Market

    Alloy 25 by Materion is the material of choice for downhole drilling tools, production and completion tools, subsea and wellhead products. The alloy is also used for highly demanding applications like MWD/LWD tools, drill collars and subs, flex subs and shafts, drill rods, drill bit bushings, valve components, pump shafts and fasteners.

  8. PDF icon High Strength, Non-galling, Non-Magnetic Precision Tube

    Materion provides Alloy 25 copper beryllium and ToughMet® copper-nickel-tin alloy tube for Instrumentation pressure housings and battery housings used in downhole MWD, downhole LWD, and wire line oilfield tools.
