Deatons Car Spares & Metals

There are two main types of metals we recieve here for recycling, ferrous and non-ferrous. A non-ferrous metal is any metal which is not iron or any alloy of metals which does not contain iron as a component. Most (but not all) ferrous alloys are magnetic and even those which are vary in magnetic attraction due to the amount of iron in the alloy. All ferrous alloys will exhibit some degree of oxidation (called rust only in the case of iron and iron alloys) which has a distinct reddish color.Some typical examples of ferrous metals are; Mild steel, carbon Steel, cast iron, heavy steel, stainless steel and wrought iron.
