316 Stainless Steel
Scrap 316 stainless steel, is a molybdenum-alloyed steel. It is typically referred to as “marine grade” and is the second most common austenite stainless steel. Stainless steel is valued because of its non corrosive properties, which means that it will not rust. Stainless steel is made up of numerous elements including steel nickel, titanium, aluminum, copper, nitrogen, phosphorous and selenium.
Typical usage; Screens for mining, jet engine parts, manifolds, chemical processing equipment, pharmaceutical equipment & heat exchangers, marine propellers.
316 Stainless Steel Contaminated
Contaminated 316 Stainless Steel scrap metal is considered contaminated when the 316 Stainless Steel it is combined with any other non alloy elements other than 316 stainless steel. Typical contaminants are steel, glass, plastic and sometimes wood.
Typical usage; Screens for mining, jet engine parts, manifolds, chemical processing equipment, pharmaceutical equipment & heat exchangers.
304 Stainless Steel
304 stainless steel, is the most common type of stainless steel used in the marketplace. The difference between 304 and 316 stainless steel scrap metal is the amount of a molybdenum-alloyed steel present. 304 stainless steel contains between 16 and 24 percent chromium and up to 35 percent nickel—along with small traces of carbon and manganese. 304 stainless steel can experience longer exposure to harsher elements than its 316 stainless steel counterpart without experiencing corrosion.
Typical usage; Restaurant equipment, food applications & appliances
304 Stainless Steel Contaminated
Scrap contaminated 304 Stainless Steel is considered contaminated when the 304 Stainless Steel it is combined with any non alloy elements other than 304 stainless steel. Typical contaminants are steel, glass, plastic and sometimes wood.
