Non-Ferrous Products Metals other than those containing steel (i.e. "non-ferrous" products) abound on maritime vessels. Examples of non-ferrous scrap are: aluminum, copper, brass and lead. These metals may be found in the ships’ propellers, wire, engine rooms, fire lines, weapons systems and superstructure. While Non-ferrous material is considerably more valuable than ferrous products by weight. Types of non-ferrous material include: Aluminum: Many of the ships we dismantle, particularly warships, are laden with substantial quantities of aluminum. Grades often available include 3000, 5000 and 6000 series and are sweated for delivery as 1,200 lb. And 1,500 lb. sows. Sample buttons are available to interested parties. Brass: Yellow (honey) brass, admiralty brass, red brass, high grade brass (both G and M), marine brass and other types of brass are available to be shipped, also in Gaylord boxes. Copper: Copper products, including copper #1, copper #2, bronzes and other red metal mixes are plentiful in vessel construction. These varieties can be shipped in Gaylord boxes. Cupro-Nickel: Cupro-nickel 70/30 and 90/10 are often processed from ship inventory. Typically, only a small percentage of non-ferrous output is comprised of cupro-nickel. Lead: Often, especially with Naval construction, lead is utilized as ship ballast. Many ships have hundreds of tons of lead available in bar form. In addition, our wire stripping facility separates lead sheathing from copper wire. Other Non-Ferrous Scrap Products: Monels (both K and R types), reefers, stainless steel and zinc are examples of the other non-ferrous products the Company offers for sale.
