Ferrous Metals
Here at Universal Recycling Co. we are always in the market to buy and sell ferrous and non ferrous metals of any type and quantity.
The main differences between ferrous and non ferrous metals are that ferrous metals tend to be metals like cast iron, wrought iron, steel and cast steel. The thing that these all have in common is that they are all made up of an iron compound. Ferrous metals are normally used in items such as automobiles, cans, stoves, cookers and fridges. Also, all types of ferrous metals are magneic.
Non ferrous metals can be defined as metals that don't contain an iron compound. Metals like copper, bronze, aluminium bronze, brass, pewter, lead and zinc are classed as non ferrous. You can tell if a metal is ferrous or non ferrous depending on whether they are magnetic or not. A magenet will not attach to non ferrous metals.
