What this grade name highlights
For 80/20-style material, the buyer usually checks how much of the load is heavier prepared steel versus lighter or coated pieces.
Plate, structural steel, heavy pipe, cut steel and prepared thick ferrous pieces.
Thickness, heavy/light ratio, galvanized or painted pieces, concrete, rubber, plastic and oversize items.
Send wide and close-up photos, approximate weight, largest piece size and loading location.
HMS1-80 is evaluated as heavier ferrous scrap. The team checks thickness, density, cutting requirements and whether lighter or coated material is mixed into the load. For 80/20-style material, the buyer usually checks how much of the load is heavier prepared steel versus lighter or coated pieces.
They are used to discuss the mix of heavier prepared steel and lighter or secondary pieces, but real buying decisions still depend on photos, inspection, cleanliness and transport conditions.
Main factors are grade, thickness, oversize cutting, rust, coating, non-steel contamination, quantity, loading access and the ferrous scrap market on that day.
Keep concrete, rubber, plastic, wood and non-ferrous metals out of the pile. If large pieces need torch cutting, show them clearly in the photos.
