Engine blocks, pipe and machine bases.

## What we accept

Engine blocks, pipe and machine bases. Material is weighed and graded on arrival at our yard in Mina Abdallah.

## Cast iron is not steel

Cast, ductile and wrought iron melt differently from steel and are kept apart from heavy melting scrap. Mixing them puts the load on the lower value.

## Where it comes from

Engine blocks, cast pipe and machine bases, from vehicle work, plant replacement and demolition.

## Cast, ductile and wrought are not one grade

Grey cast breaks, ductile iron bends, wrought iron is fibrous. The three behave differently in a furnace and are graded apart even when they arrive in the same load.

## Size and breakage

Engine blocks, pipe and machine bases are broken down to charging size. Bearings, shafts and steel inserts are removed, since they are not cast and are not paid at cast rate.

## From the yard to the port

Five stages, handled by us, in the order they happen.

### 01 Grading and preparation

Material is sorted and graded, then cut, sheared or baled to the size the buyer specifies.

### 02 Weighing

Every load is weighed and a weight ticket is issued against it, recording gross, tare and net.

### 03 Inspection

A lot may be inspected at the yard by arrangement. Photographs and weights of a specific lot are provided on request.

### 04 Container loading

Sorted material is loaded to container at the yard, grade by grade rather than mixed.

### 05 Documentation and shipment

Paperwork is handled from the yard through to the port, and the shipment leaves through Shuaiba or Shuwaikh.
