Soft carbide scrap (swarf) recycling
—
how do you get paid:

Shipping usually brings some of the coolant to the top. We remove this excess top oil before
sampling.

When your shipment arrives, core samples are taken and sent to an independent lab for analysis.

This is the proper way, as the heavier
--
and thus more valuable
--
material will have settled to the
bottom. When the analysis comes back it might read something
like:


12.5%


moisture


05.7%


cobalt


19.8%


other elements


74.5%


tungsten


1,750# x 74.5%


=


1,304# tungsten contained (sometimes
called "tungsten units)


1,304# x $10.00


=


$13,040 paid (typically in 2 or 3
weeks)


We use DOUBLED, industrial strength, 8
-
mil bags to ship all
over the country.
Sissy sandwich bags and garbage bags do not work
,
No wooden boxes please
, they
break and do not give.





TOTALLY IMMOBILIZE THE INSIDE PACKAGES



We use crumpled,
and
very tightly stuffed

newspaper below and around and on top of the “inside”
container. This provides a firm crash cushion if the package is dropped.
