Aluminium
ISRI code Taint/Tabor
Old sheet of two or more alloys, free of foil, venetian blinds, castings, hair wire, screen wire, food or beverage containers, radiator shells, airplane sheet, bottle caps, plastic, dirt and other non-metallic items.
Aluminium
ISRI code Tense
Clean aluminium castings — auto parts, housings and similar — free of iron, dirt, brass, bushings and non-metallic items.
Aluminium
ISRI code Zorba
Shredded non-ferrous metal from end-of-life vehicles and mixed sources, mostly aluminium with copper, zinc and stainless fractions. Recovery depends on origin and density — ask for the lot's breakdown.
Aluminium
ISRI code Twitch
Aluminium fraction separated from shredder output by flotation — cleaner and denser than Zorba.
Aluminium
ISRI code Troma
Clean alloy wheels free of tyres, valve stems, balance weights, steel inserts and chrome.
Aluminium
ISRI code Taldon
Baled or briquetted aluminium beverage cans, magnetically separated.
Aluminium
Old or new 6063 profile scrap — window, door and structural sections — with or without paint/anodising as specified per lot.
Copper
ISRI code Barley
Clean, unalloyed, uncoated, unoxidised bare copper wire, not smaller than 16 gauge.
Copper
ISRI code Berry/Candy
Clean, unalloyed, uncoated copper wire and solids — clippings, punchings, bus bars, commutator segments.
Copper
ISRI code Birch/Cliff
Miscellaneous unalloyed copper with a nominal 96% copper content — oxidised, coated or soldered material.
Brass
ISRI code Honey
Yellow brass solids — plumbing fixtures, castings, rolled brass, valves — free of manganese bronze and aluminium bronze.
Brass
ISRI code Ebony
Valves, machinery bearings and other red brass or composition castings, free of semi-red brass and lead-free alloys.
Brass
ISRI code Ocean
Unsweated copper and brass automobile radiators, free of aluminium radiators and iron-finned radiators.
Brass
Machine-shop turnings from free-cutting brass, dry and free of iron, as specified per lot.
Zinc
ISRI code Saves
Old zinc-base die castings — auto parts, hardware — free of non-metallic items and other metals as far as practical.
Zinc
ISRI code Scabs
New, clean, unplated zinc die-cast runners, gates and rejects from production.
Stainless steel
18/8 austenitic stainless solids — sheet cuttings, pipes, utensil scrap — magnet-checked.
Stainless steel
18/8 machine turnings, clean and dry.
Stainless steel
Molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless solids.
Stainless steel
Low-nickel, manganese-bearing austenitic stainless.
Stainless steel
Ferritic and martensitic stainless — magnetic, nickel-free.
High-nickel alloys
Ni-Cr and Ni-Cr-Fe alloy solids (alloy 600/625/718 type) segregated by alloy.
High-nickel alloys
Turnings from nickel-alloy machining, segregated and free of oil as specified.
High-nickel alloys
Cupro-nickel tubes, plates and solids from marine and heat-exchanger use.
Ferrous
Heavy melting steel — No.1 and No.2 in an 80:20 ratio — cut to charge-box size.
Ferrous
ISRI code ISRI 211
Homogeneous, iron and steel scrap, magnetically separated, from automobiles and miscellaneous baling and sheet scrap.
Ferrous
Clean cast-iron borings and turnings for foundry and furnace charge.
Grade names follow ISRI specifications where one applies. Descriptions summarise the specification; the agreed contract terms for a lot always take precedence. Imported and domestic availability changes with the market — ask the desk what’s on offer this week.
