Why Is Copper Used In Fabrication

Image
Copper and Copper alloys are amongst the most versatile materials available and are used for applications in every type of industry. World consumption of copper now exceeds 18 million tonnes per annum. Copper is well known for its conductivity but it has other properties that have been exploited in a wide range of copper alloys. These alloys have been developed for a wide variety of applications and numerous copper fabrication processes employed to produce finished goods.Fabrication techniques that copper alloys are largely suited to include machining, forming, stamping, joining, polishing and plating.   The procedures for the handling and storage of Copper and Copper alloys are very similar to those used for aluminum and Stainless Steel.  It should be noted that the products are heavy, but relatively soft and can thus be easily damaged through poor or inappropriate handling.   The most important factor is cleanliness. Wrought iron gates restoration can be the cause of cracking or po
