Sheet Copper

Description

Sheet copper refers to flat pieces or sheets made of copper that are commonly used in various applications. It is a form of copper that has been flattened into thin, flat sheets or plates. Sheet copper is highly valued for its conductivity, malleability, and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in industries such as electrical, plumbing, roofing, and decorative arts.

Sheet copper can be found in different grades and thicknesses, ranging from thin foils to thicker plates. It is typically characterized by its reddish-brown color and can develop a distinctive green patina over time when exposed to the elements.

In the scrap metal industry, sheet copper is a valuable commodity, and it is often recycled and sold as scrap when it is no longer needed or has become damaged. Recycling sheet copper helps conserve natural resources and reduces the environmental impact associated with mining and refining new copper.
