Біржова ціна відображає чистий перероблений метал (99,9%+). У кожної марки лому різний рівень домішок і різна складність переробки. Чим вищий відсоток, тим цінніша марка і тим ближче виплата до спотової ціни.
| Grade | Exchange (100%) | Yard Price (per lb) | Grade Quality |
|---|---|---|---|
| 316 Stainless Steel | $8.90 LME | $0.75 | High Grade•8% |
| 18/8 Stainless Steel | $8.90 LME | $0.40 | Mid Grade•4% |

📊 What Determines Stainless Grade Value:
- Nickel & Moly Content: The higher the nickel and molybdenum (like in 316 vs 304), the bigger the payout at the scale.
- Cleanliness: Iron attachments, heavy grease, or plastic immediately drop your material to a low-paying 'dirty' price.
- Form and Density: Solid plates, pipes, and thick extrusions pay more than thin gauge sheet or fluffy turnings.
- Market Spread: Local yard demand and the current 95.6% spread against the LME influence the final scale price.
