Brass Shell Casings – Clean Material from Demilitarization
What Are Brass Shell Casings?
Brass shell casings are a type of non-ferrous scrap obtained primarily from used ammunition collected through demilitarization or from shooting ranges. The key feature of this material is the absence of iron (Fe) content, which makes it particularly valuable and desirable in non-ferrous metal recycling.
Characteristics of Brass Shell Casings
Brass shell scrap is made from high-grade brass casings that have been discharged. Due to its purity and lack of ferrous contamination, this material is sent for remelting and reused in various industries – including precision manufacturing, technical components, or even new ammunition parts.
How to Identify Brass Shell Casings?
- Color: Distinctive golden shade with a slight shine
- Magnetic test: Not attracted to a magnet – proof of no iron content
- Surface: Smooth, often with markings from ammunition manufacturers
Brass Shell Casings Price – What Does It Depend On?
