Gluing Copper Sheet

Cyanoacrylate adhesives or instant adhesives are ideal for bonding copper.

Gluing copper sheet.

Apply the metal glue. In a well ventilated area thoroughly wash the back side of the copper with water or acetone using a steel wool or synthetic steel wool scotch brite pad. Position the pieces and press together. Take care to not touch your bare fingertips to the surfaces to be bonded.

Apply adhesive to the prepared surface as the manufacturer directs. Gently scuff sand the back of the copper veneer with 80 or 120 grit sandpaper. Clean the metal. Surfaces should be clean and dry.

Step 1 lay the two sheets you will be gluing together on a flat surface and pour acetone onto a clean rag. Solderless copper bonding also known as cold soldering gluing copper or cold welding uses a liquid durable polymer which is applied to rigid pipe fittings to literally weld them together hermetically absolutely nothing can get in impenetrable. Copper glue solutions cyberbond is highly regarded for setting the strictest requirements for all of the adhesives we produce. Cyberbond is the adhesives manufacturer you can depend upon for superior quality copper adhesives available in high strength low viscosity quick set time or a variety of colors.

Soak a rag in lacquer thinner and thoroughly polish the newly etched surface with it. Scrub thoroughly and remove all grease and other grime from the sheet metal. Do not apply the adhesive to the copper. Paint a thin layer of adhesive onto the entire etched surface of the copper sheet.

Rub the rag over the entire surface of the two sides of sheet metal you will be gluing together. The highest strength bonds are created with methyl cyanoacrylates such as the original permabond 910. Prefit the parts to make sure there are no big gaps. Be sure to read your product instructions for any details on application and drying times before.
