Copper——Imprint of time & Traces of life
Introduction
Pure Copper/Red Copper
Copper is a rose-red metal that turns purple after a copper oxide film is formed on the surface. Pure copper is often called red copper or electrolytic copper. It is well-known for its good electrical and thermal conductivity and excellent plasticity.
Brass
Brass is an alloy made from copper and zinc. Brass is often used to make valves, water pipes, and connecting pipes for internal/external air conditioners and radiators.
Use and special material
As you know, Copper material is often used to make handicrafts, utensils, toy pieces, etc. Speaking to its surface, an oxide layer will naturally form with its contact with the air, and it will show different colors over time. In addition, it will chemically react with the sweat from the surface of your hand, forming a patina effect. It is these characteristics that allow it to be preserved for thousands of years and why copper has such a long history of application.
About Olight copper-related products
As one of our new products in April, it was created with pure copper on its surface. The beauty of pure copper on our products not only endures over time but also allows every touch to leave a personal impression. Moreover, a unique texture of the patina will grow as time lapses, which records the subtle traces of your life.
Our new penlight launching in April is unique for its bark brass material. The vivid carvings and special aging techniques capture the image of aged tree bark in brass. As we know, even if the rains and winds have gone, their traces are still founded in the tree bark. Therefore, this product also allegorically expresses hope to record the trajectory of your life.
i3T Plus Ancient Bamboo EDC flashlight
Different from our previous product of the same series, each i3T plus ancient bamboo is manually aged with fire and water to make it unique and special. You can see all the fissures and knots of the weathered bamboo on its surface. Those fine fissures and sturdy bamboo knots are ingeniously made in order to give a sense of strength and integrity.
Conclusion
These three products are all featured products of the copper series that will be launched for Olight’s 15th anniversary, which we hope to gain more recognition from our fans. At the same time, we also hope that this article can allow more people to have a better understanding of copper and brass.
