Copper Stamping

Copper stamping uses the deep drawn metal stamping process to form copper sheet metal with a punch and die. The copper is fed into the metal stamping press and progressively formed by a punch that stamps the metal into a die. Complex and even asymmetrical shapes can be created via deep drawn stamping, with copper and many other types of metals.

Advantages of Copper Stampings

Copper is a preferred metal for stamped components that are exposed to the elements, or that are used to convey liquids. Copper is corrosion resistant, much like stainless steel, but is far less costly than stainless steel. Copper is preferred for many plumbing-related applications as well as for temperature sensing components. While copper is corrosion resistant, it does tarnish quickly and very obviously. Copper left exposed to the elements quickly turns a green color -- this can often be seen on the roofs of old churches and other buildings. In some structural instances this tarnishing effect of copper is considered attractive and desirable
