LME Grade A · 99.99% minimum purity
Copper Cathode Wholesale Supply
Gloogal Market supplies high-purity electrolytic copper cathode sheets to wire and cable mills, tube and sheet producers, foundries, alloy manufacturers and industrial distributors. Grade, assay, bundle weight, origin and delivery terms are confirmed in the sales contract before allocation.
Standard supply is quoted to LME Grade A / Cu-CATH-1 parameters. Buyers can nominate an independent inspector to verify purity, weight, quantity and condition at the loading point before shipping documents are released.

Copper Cathode Applications
High-purity cathodes are the primary raw material for copper and copper-alloy manufacturing.
- High-conductivity wire, cable and copper rod production
- Copper tube, bar, billet, plate, sheet, strip and foil
- Brass and more than 450 industrial copper alloys
- Foundry, extrusion, rolling and specialist electronics applications
Electrolytic Refining Process
Step 1
Blister smelting
Copper-bearing material is smelted and upgraded to blister copper before final purification.
Step 2
Electro-refining
Copper anodes enter an electrolytic bath; copper ions migrate and deposit onto starter or permanent cathode plates.
Step 3
Cathode stripping
The refined copper sheets are removed when they reach the contracted dimensions and weight.
Step 4
Final verification
Each production lot is washed, sampled, weighed and documented before bundling for export.
Inspection, Bundling & Export Handling
Assay and weight
Independent checks can verify chemical composition, sheet weight, bundle weight and shipment quantity.
Secure bundling
Sheets are grouped into 1–4 MT bundles and restrained with steel bands suitable for careful mechanical handling.
Clean stowage
Cathodes are kept away from contaminating cargo, moisture and rough handling that could damage bands or sheet edges.
