Hammered Copper Sheet Now Available at Storm Copper Components Co.

Decatur, TN – Storm Copper Components Co. a fabricator of custom copper electrical connectors for power equipment manufacturers is now offering copper sheets embossed with various textures, at very affordable prices. It wasn’t long ago, that to achieve these textured finishes required a considerable amount of hand hammering. Storm now offers these hammered and textured copper sheets through an automated process, which greatly reduces the price. Currently, seven different hammered and textured finishes are available for immediate shipment.

“We are simply amazed at the popularity of our new textured and hammered copper sheets. We offer these sheets cut in so many different sizes it allows our customer to purchase the exact amount they need. This also helps reduce the shipping cost. Because we shear this product down to size, almost everything we send out is shipped via UPS. The fact that the purchasing can all be done online, makes it even more convenient for the customer.” said Carol Howard President of Storm Copper Components Co.

These textured copper sheets are ideal for high traffic areas because of resistance to damage. Moreover, the texturing process increases the strength to weight ratio of the copper sheet and makes it more rigid. The real benefit of these features is to reduce maintenance costs while enhancing the overall appearance of the installation.

These hammered and textured copper sheets are being used in applications previously reserved for flat metal. Elevators, store fronts, doors, countertops, range hoods, light fixtures, sinks and bar tops, are just a few of the applications for this product. Sheila Stone, Customer Service Manager at Storm Copper Components Co. explains, “I was really impressed with the warmth of the sheets. This finish would be a great addition to any kitchen, family room or commercial setting.”

These panels are produced from 16 oz. copper sheet (approximately .0216” thick) and weigh 1.00/lb. per square foot. It is important to note, over time copper will darken with exposure to air. The oxygen in the air will actually corrode the metal. Over a number of years, a greenish patina will form on the metal. Most people find the character gained by copper through this corrosion process to be quite attractive. However, if you prefer the bright shinny look, sealers can be used to preserve the bright metal finish of newly rolled copper.
