History

I've included quite a bit on the properties and applications of Glidcop, but am unable to find anything online that points to its development or history. Any help in this area would be appreciated. Tevonic (talk) 05:44, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

A snippet from the 2003 Höganäs annual corporate report: "GLIDCOP® is a copper-powder based extruded material that possesses unique high-temperature conduction characteristics, and is used in applications such as autobody spot welding." - This might give some indication towards its design goals and intended market. --BjKa (talk) 12:22, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

Trademark

Nitpick: The Höganäs website writes Glidcop as "GLIDCOP" --BjKa (talk) 11:27, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

And at the time of Höganäs taking over SCM Metal Products, Inc. they spelled it "GlidCop".

Tool damage

Wouldn't the oxide particles wear out drill bits and other tools? --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 22:44, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
