Why Copper Metal Stampings?
As with all metals, copper has its own advantages and disadvantages for metal stamped parts. Some of the characteristics of copper that affect its desirability for metal stamping include:
- Copper is corrosion resistant
- Copper tarnishes quickly, with substantial discoloration
- Copper is very expensive when compared to low carbon steel, approximately eight times the price.
- The pricing for copper is very volatile and it is typically purchased at market or spot buy prices
- Copper is excellent for brazing and soldering
- Copper can be polished for decorative purposes; however, the polished copper must be coated to minimize tarnishing
