Aerospace Industry

AlBeMet is an aluminium beryllium metal matrix composite that combines the low density of aluminium with the stiffness of beryllium, used where a structure has to stay light, rigid and dimensionally stable under thermal load. WessDel machines AlBeMet, beryllium and other advanced materials for aerospace and defense programs at its AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 certified facility in San Jose, California, supporting customers from material selection through to final inspection.
