Spark-resistant tools are used to eliminate the chances of accidental fires or
explosions in potentially combustible or explosive environments. They resist the
sparks that a standard tool could potentially create when striking hard
surfaces. The use of spark-resistant tools is essential in many industrial
applications such as petroleum and chemical manufacturing, spray booth
operations, the marine industry, the mining industry, the paper industries, or
any location where flammable vapours or combustible residues are present.
Beryllium Copper is manufactured at 30-10HRC and offers a breaking strain of
1117 N/m - 1236 N/m. Spark-resistant tools must be maintained with special care.
Frequent cleaning/re-dressing to remove ferrous particles or contaminants, which
may impair the spark-resistant properties, is essential.
