Beryllium is fairly brittle as far as metals go, so a crack wouldn't be out of the question.

  But alloys don't behave like the individual elements, so Beryllium being brittle doesn't mean that the alloy also is. Just like Carbon has multiple crystallization forms with wildly different mechanical properties (graphite vs diamond)

    Plating is not an alloy though?
