Copper sheet metal properties. Tensile strength yield strength b elongation copper or copper alloy uns no. Cuprum and atomic number 29. It is a soft malleable and ductile metal with very high thermal and electrical conductivity a freshly exposed surface of pure copper has a pinkish orange color copper is used as a conductor of heat and electricity as a building material and as a constituent of various metal alloys such as sterling. Copper sheets plates are also noted for their high electrical and thermal conductivity and good corrosion resistance.

One of few metals that doesn t need to be extracted from ore i e it is directly usable in its natural state copper exhibits excellent thermal and electrical conductivity good ductility and a natural resistance to corrosion. In 2 in min c10100. The copper most commonly used for sheet and strip applications complies with astm b370. Copper is a chemical element with the symbol cu from latin.

110 copper sheet plate is widely known for its architectural applications whereas the familiar green patina appearance is acheived when exposed to the elements copper sheets and plates have excellent hot or cold workability and is ductile when heated. So whenever metal sheets need to work as conductors copper sheet metals are more preferred. Types of copper and properties. And unlined stainless steel sheets it s an unalloyed type of sheets.

It consists of 99 9 percent copper and is available in six tempers designated by astm b370 as.
