Ferrous
Mild Steel Turnings
Steel turnings, also known as steel swarf or metal shavings, are the small metal pieces or chips that result from machining or turning operations on steel components. They are produced during various metalworking processes, particularly those involving cutting, shaping, or drilling of steel.
Rerolling Plates
Steel plates can arise from various manufacturing processes and are used for a wide range of applications.
Re-rolling plants may also have plate rolling capabilities, where steel plates are processed to achieve specific dimensions, shapes, or profiles. Plate rolling involves applying pressure to the plate to bend or curve it according to the desired specifications.
Incineration Scrap
Incineration steel scrap refers to steel scrap that has been subjected to an incineration or combustion process. It is a type of steel scrap that has undergone thermal treatment, typically in waste-to-energy facilities or certain industrial processes.
Used Rails
Used rails scrap refers to discarded or decommissioned railway tracks or rails that are no longer in use. These rails are made of steel and are a valuable source of scrap metal for recycling purposes.
Steel Plates
Steel plates can arise from various manufacturing processes and are used for a wide range of applications.
Re-rolling plants may also have plate rolling capabilities, where steel plates are processed to achieve specific dimensions, shapes, or profiles. Plate rolling involves applying pressure to the plate to bend or curve it according to the desired specifications.
Bushellings Steel Scrap
Busheling steel scrap, often referred to as bushelings, is a specific type of steel scrap that consists of clean, new production scrap generated during steel manufacturing and fabrication processes. It is typically derived from stamping operations, such as automotive manufacturing, where excess steel sheet or coil is cut into smaller pieces or "blanks" for further forming and assembly.
Shredded Steel Scrap
Shredded steel scrap, also known as shredder scrap or frag, is a type of steel scrap that has been processed through a shredding machine to break it down into smaller, more manageable pieces. It is a common form of steel scrap used in recycling and metal recovery processes.
Shredded steel scrap typically comes from a variety of sources, including end-of-life vehicles (ELVs), appliances, demolished structures, and industrial machinery. These sources can contain different types of steel, such as carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel.
