Known popular as 'New Production Scrap' or 'Bonus Grade Scrap' this grade comprises of Scrap metal generated from Fabrication Units, cut lengths of Rebar obtained from Cut and Bend factories and cut pieces of other items such as Structural Steel, Plates, Billets, Blooms, Stampings, Forging, etc.

The materials that fall into the category are new and will have the colour of freshly produced steel, although some quantity with light atmosphere rust is permissible. Acceptable dimension for this grade of scrap metal is 1.5m x 1.0m, with of thickness of 6mm and above. This grade conforms to ISRI 229/230/231/232/234 specifications of Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries, Inc. USA. One TEU (Twenty Feet Equivalent Unit) container can accommodate a minimum of 25 metric tonnes of New Production Scrap.

Premium Grade: This material comprises of Re-bars of thickness ranging from 25mm to 40mm. The length varies from a minimum of 1m.

Normal Grade: This material comprises of Rebars of thickness ranging from 16mm to 20mm. The length varies from a minimum of 1m.

This mainly comprises of plates, H-beams, I-beams, Angles, Channels, etc with a minimum thickness of 8mm and above. The minimum length for this grade of scrap metal is 1m.

HMS 1 grade conforms to ISRI 200/201/202 specifications of Institute of Scrap Recycling conform Industries, Inc. USA. It consists of cut lengths of Pipe, Re-bar, Angles, Steel Poles, H or I - Beams Ship's Plate and so on normally cut to a size not exceeding 1.5m X 0.5m and a thickness of 6mm.

Plates and Structural grade of scrap metal conforms to ISRI 236/237 /238 specifications of Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries, Inc. USA and mainly comprises of thick Structural Steel profiles such as H-Beams, I -Beams, Angles, Pipes, Piling Sheets, Merchant Bars, and other heavy materials. The dimension of this material will generally be 1.5m x 1.0m, with a thickness of 6mm and above. One TEU (Twenty Feet Equivalent Unit) container can carry at least 25 metric tonnes of this grade of scrap metal.

Known commercially as "Moon - Cuts", this kind of scrap is generated from the cutting of large diameter pipes used in the oil industry. These pipes can be straight welded or spiral welded and the wall thickness must be of minimum 8mm with no limit on the maximum. When moon-cut, the length of each piece can be up to a container length, but a minimum of 1 meter.

This is the most widely traded grade of scrap metal worldwide and conforms to ISRI 200/201/202/203/204/205/206 specifications of Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries, Inc. USA. It consists of a mix of heavier HMS 1 grade scrap and lighter steel scrap such as sheet scrap (less than 3.2mm thick), thin wall tubing and galvanized and blackened steel. One TEU (Twenty Feet Equivalent Unit) container of HMSL generally weighs about 20 metric tonnes.

This grade of scrap metal is most suitable for WCB grade castings.

Mis- Rolls are rejections produced when Billets are heated during the rolling process in a rolling mill. Billet End-Cuts are generated when a billet passes through rolls for thickness reduction and it falls off the production line and scrapped for re-use. Mis-Rolls are generally available from large steel mills and re-rolling mills. Length and thickness of these Billet End Cuts and Mis-Rolls vary.

SS 410 contains a minimum of 11.5% of Chromium, 0.75% of Nickel, 0 .04% of Phosphorus and 0.03% of Sulphur. It contains just enough Chromium to give corrosion resistance properties. SS 410 is a general purpose grade often supplied for applications where high strength and moderate heat and corrosion resistance are required.

SS 304 is the standard "18/8" stainless steel. It is the most versatile and widely used stainless steel, available in a wider range of products, forms, and finishes than any other. This scrap category shall contain a minimum of 8% of Nickel, 16% of Chrome and have a maximum of 0.50% of Molybdenum, 0.50% of Copper, 0 .045% of Phosphorous and 0.03% of Sulphur and are free from harmful contaminants.

SS 2205 is the most widely used duplex stainless-steel grade. It finds applications due to both excellent corrosion resistance and high strength. SS 2205 contains 21 % to 23% Chromium, 2 .5% to 3 .5% Molybdenum and 4 .5% to 6 .5% Nickel.

SS 316 is the standard molybdenum-bearing grade and contains a higher percentage of Molybdenum and Nickel than 55 304. It contains a minimum of 2% of Molybdenum and 10% - 14% of Nickel. The molybdenum gives SS 316 better overall corrosion resistant properties than Grade 304, particularly higher resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride environments.

SS 316L is the low carbon version of SS 316 and is immune from sensitization (grain boundary carbide precipitation). Thus, it is extensively used in heavy gauge welded components (over 6mm).
