CU-5 Copper Strip is available in a 5-pound bundle, of 2-foot long strips, 1-inch wide by .030-inches thick. This is ideal for making bullets from .45 pistol (about .7 inch maximum length) and smaller, including .308, .224, .172 and tiny .142 and .124 diameter jackets.

CU-5 is also commonly purchased for use in Corbin BGK-1 Base Guard Kits, to make the copper disk which fastens to the base of a bullet and scrapes fouling from the bore on each shot, eliminating the need for lubrication grooves.

The total length of strip is 42.5 feet. The number of parts that can be made from this strip quantity depends on the diameter of initial disk cut from the strip. For example, a full width disk of nearly 0.9 inches is used to make .45 caliber cups. Leaving a 0.1 inch web between disks, five pounds would make about 510 jackets. Making a .45 or smaller Base Guard disk from the same amount of strip would give you over 1020 parts.

The strip is edge finished and polished, so it will pass easily through a slot for coining and cupping operations. The strip is annealed and polished, and free of nicks and scratches that would affect the quality of deep drawn parts.
