When your project demands exact thickness tolerances and consistent width, generic metal tape simply won't do. Makers, electronics technicians, jewellers, and model engineers who need reliable copper and brass foil roll stock in ultra-thin gauges — from 0.01 mm all the way up to 1 mm — will find this range covers the full spectrum of precision metalwork requirements.
Each roll is cut from copper or brass sheet stock and supplied in widths ranging from 45 mm (approx. 1.77 in) to 305 mm (approx. 12 in), with thickness options spanning 0.01 mm to 1 mm (0.0004 in to 0.039 in). Lengths are available in 1 m, 2 m, 3 m, and 5 m cuts, giving you the exact quantity you need without waste. The material is uncoated and supplied in a flat roll format for easy handling and cutting.
Typical applications include EMI/RFI electromagnetic shielding for electronics enclosures, copper foil tape for stained glass and art projects, thin brass shim stock for mechanical gap-filling and alignment, and decorative metalwork inlay for woodworking and jewellery. The ultra-thin 0.01–0.05 mm gauges are particularly suited to precision shim and gasket work, while the 0.3–1 mm range handles structural inlay and forming tasks.

For EMI/RFI shielding and stained glass foil tape, 0.01–0.05 mm is the standard range. For shim stock and gap-filling in mechanical assemblies, 0.05–0.3 mm is typical. For decorative inlay, forming, or light structural applications, 0.3–1 mm provides the rigidity needed. If you are unsure, select the variant options above or contact us to confirm suitability.
Copper foil offers superior electrical conductivity and solderability, making it the preferred choice for electronics shielding and circuit work. Brass foil (a copper-zinc alloy) offers slightly higher hardness and a warmer gold tone, making it better suited for decorative inlay, jewellery, and applications where a harder surface is needed. Check the variant title to confirm the material for your chosen size.
Copper variants are directly solderable with standard rosin-core or lead-free solder and a temperature-controlled iron. Brass variants can be soldered but may require flux and slightly higher iron temperatures due to the zinc content. Always clean the surface with isopropyl alcohol before soldering for best adhesion.
Both copper and brass will develop a natural patina (oxidation layer) over time when exposed to air and moisture. This patina is generally protective and does not compromise structural integrity. For applications requiring a bright finish, store unused foil in a sealed bag and clean with a mild metal polish before use. For outdoor or high-humidity environments, consider a clear lacquer coating after installation.
Standard widths available are 45 mm, 100 mm, 200 mm, 300 mm, and 305 mm. Standard lengths are 1 m, 2 m, 3 m, and 5 m. These cover the most common DIY and light industrial requirements. For custom widths, lengths, or bulk quantities beyond 5 m, please contact us directly before placing your order.
For gauges up to 0.1 mm, a sharp craft knife or scissors on a cutting mat gives clean edges. For 0.1–0.5 mm, score with a knife and snap, or use metal shears. For 0.5–1 mm, metal shears or a guillotine cutter are recommended. Always support the foil flat on a hard surface and use a steel rule as a guide to prevent tearing or distortion along the cut line.
Yes. The 0.01–0.05 mm copper variants in 45 mm and 100 mm widths are well suited for stained glass foiling. Note that traditional stained glass copper foil tape has an adhesive backing — this product is plain (non-adhesive) foil. You will need to apply your own adhesive or use it in conjunction with a foil burnisher and solder for the Tiffany technique.
