Ferrous includes any metal that is “magnetic” due to the iron content. This would include steel and cast iron. Pure nickel is magnetic, but is considered a non-ferrous metal. Stainless Steel has iron alloyed into it, but is also considered a non-ferrous metal.Non-ferrous metals are not magnetic and usually have a higher value than ferrous metals. The most common non-ferrous metals include:

• Copper
• Brass
• Aluminum
