Are you looking for tool to store files into one archive file without 
compression?

In Unix world, 
 * ar
 * tar
 * cpio

These are popular. The first one may not be for your normal data.  If it
is source file tree, tar will be my first choice.  If it is for the 
selective back up, I go for cpio.

As mentioned by someone else, zip can store file without compression but
that is not common thing to do unless you want people using other OS to
read it.
