Welding Copper Bar. The manufacturing process consisted of press welding drilling bending and nickel plating. However it may not be safe or desirable to make welded joints in situ.
Welding copper commonly known as industrial pure copper is most commonly used butt jointWelding wire can be used for gas welding one is a wire containing deoxy elements such as wire 201 202The other is a general copper wire and base metal cutting using gas agent 301 as a flux. You can use silicon bronze filler wire and a TIG welder to weld steel to copper most easily while maintaining as strong of a bond as possible between the two metals. Bare copper can be directly attached to rebar using rebar clamps for concrete encasement here an exothermic welding system was used for this purpose.

You could use ceramic brass aluminum or even steel but you still have to backgouge to sound metal and weld the root side. We are dealing with copper busbars of 1250 amp T off it with a smaller busbar say 200 amp. They are compact and have the advantage that the current-carrying capacity is unimpaired as the joint is effectively a continuous copper conductor. We are currently bolting it onto each other but want to change from bolts to for example Welding or Brazing instead of bolts.
