Industrial Surplus World recycles all kinds and types of Copper wire.  Copper is one of the most commonly used metals in the electrical industry.   And is the third most produced metal next to iron and aluminum. 

Used in its purest form, Copper is one of the most conductive metals around; second only to Silver.  So you can see why it is widely used for a lot of things, big and small.  For example, an average car or truck contains approximately 50 pounds of copper; a commercial airplane about 9,000 pounds. Industrial Surplus World pays good price for metals such as copper, brass, aluminum, and stainless steel.

The most electrically conductive element is silver, followed by copper and gold. Silver also has the highest thermal conductivity of any element and the highest light reflectance.  Electrical conductivity in metals is a direct result of the movement of electrically charged particles.  The transfer of energy is strongest when there is little resistance.  Copper conductivity σ(S/m) at 20°C is 5.98x107

Brass however, which contains copper – is far less conductive because it’s made up of additional materials that lower its conductivity, making it undesirable for electrical purposes.

Industrial Surplus World recycles all types of Copper wire.  #2 Copper is very common.  This grade covers most copper, it is copper tubing that has solder or any copper wire 12 awg and smaller with/without insulation and coatings.  #3 copper wire has a silver appearance.

Romex is the name given to the Copper wire that is in your home, referred to as 10/3, 12/2 and so on.  It will usually have 2 layers of insulation with the outside layer normally being a white, gray, beige or orange color.
