Page: https://alhamadahalmutahida.com/materials/stainless-steel-scrap Arabic version: https://alhamadahalmutahida.com/ar/materials/stainless-steel-scrap.md Markdown index: https://alhamadahalmutahida.com/llms.txt All grades. Pipe and fittings, plates, plate cuttings, sheets, coils and turnings. ## What we accept All grades of stainless steel, as pipe and fittings, plates, plate cuttings, sheets, coils and turnings. Much of it arrives from process plant and from mechanical work. ## The grade is in the alloy Stainless is bought on its alloy content, so the same shape can sit in different grades. Material is assessed rather than taken on appearance. ## Turnings and cuttings Stainless turnings and plate cuttings are taken as their own streams and kept separate from carbon steel, which would otherwise pull the whole load down. ## 304 against 316 304 is the common eighteen eight grade. 316 carries molybdenum and is worth more. The two look alike, so loads are tested rather than taken on appearance. ## Magnetic grades and attachments Four hundred series stainless is magnetic and grades below the three hundred series. Carbon steel bolts, brackets and welded attachments are removed before the load is graded. ## 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. ## Related - [Non-ferrous scrap](https://alhamadahalmutahida.com/materials/nonferrous.md) - [Copper scrap](https://alhamadahalmutahida.com/materials/copper-scrap.md) - [Aluminium scrap](https://alhamadahalmutahida.com/materials/aluminium-scrap.md) - [Brass scrap](https://alhamadahalmutahida.com/materials/brass-scrap.md) ## Submit an enquiry Enquiries for disposal contracts and material purchases are handled from the same office.
