📊 What Determines Grade Value:
- Copper Recovery Percentage: High-grade items like Copper Electric Motors have thick copper windings, whereas Aluminum & Dirty Motors yield less value because aluminum is cheaper than copper.
- Casing Composition: Heavy cast-iron or steel casings add weight but lower the overall price-per-pound compared to aluminum-housed units.
- Remanufacturing Demand: Units like Automotive Starters often carry a 'core value' because they can be rebuilt, making them worth more than standard motor scrap.
- Attachment Contamination: Attached pumps, plastic fans, or pulleys can drop a motor's value down to the 'Dirty' grade.
