@MrsBuddevil yes. I cut the steel off as in the video. I stack up the centers and sell as clean copper/aluminum rads. You can go a step further and cut each pipe out of the aluminum fins. You will then have number 2 copper. I get these so fast that for me to take the time to do it is not worth it. Thanks for watching anything I can help with let me know. You can message me on IG also
Like the visor you use when cutting. I have used safety glasses before but the grinding disc when under the lense and got a piece in my eye. The shield...is a lot safer. Good video.
Do you try to harvest the macaroni on the ends? I usually either double cut with a sawzall or cut on the and knock the steel off. That worm drive saw is the bomb!
Yes I clean those also. Most of the time they pop out with a screwdriver. If not I run them through the bandsaw. I Normally wait til I have a barrel full of them to process at once on rainy day.
Great video. I've only ever had one of those copper/aluminium rads. I think it came out of an AC unit. But who would need it in Ireland, I don't know LOL
Anything that was in or on the pipe other than copper will make it number 2. These copper aluminum radiator coils had refrigerate running through them which has an oil in it. The oil in the pipe make it number 2. Number 1 copper is clean uncontaminated copper. No paint, oil, solder, grease, etc. Hope this clears up the difference. If you have more questions please feel free to ask. Thanks for watching
If you ever do decide to pull the straight pipes out of the rads lay them flat in a tote and soak them in vinegar for 20 mins and it'll eat the corassion off and turn it to number 1. Make sure to wash them off good or it'll turn green fast. Happy scrappy
Yes vinegar works great. I add salt also. I dont do it anymore. Theres just no time. I get so many so fast I just can't take the time anymore to do it. Thanks for checking this out.
I cut the ends off to get rid of the steel. Then sell the clean radiator with aluminum on it. I get so many so fast for me it is not worth going to the next step to separate the aluminum fins from the copper tube.
You can cut along every single pipe to remove the aluminum and end up with #2 copper. Takes a lot of time. You would be better off cutting the ends and sell them as is. Instead of waiting 20 or 30 minutes fighting with each pipe you can use that time to hunt down more scrap worth more than the few extra bucks separating.
Sorry to tell you this radiators are in vehicles operator calls or an air conditioners that’s twice I heard you call him radiators while you’re working on it can evaporator coal
We call them copper aluminum coils over here. I have called them radiators at times cuz I was getting so many messages not understanding what we call them. Thanks for watching
Never use a circular saw I like the grinder myself. Idk why people use a sawzall it's a pain in the ass and takes forever. Plus I strip the copper tube and them sawsall beat the shit out the aluminum
What long pipe? Are you referring to the pipe that runs through the aluminum? If so you have to cut down each pipe to separate it. I don't waste time doing that. I have found it take to much time. I get such a large volume of cu/al rads I just cut the end of stack them up. Thanks for watching
I use a special putty knife and put the radiator in my vise. I cut the aluminum to the copper pipe and push the radiator to snap out or tug the copper pipe. Yields #1 copper.
Correct. I cut the steel end off and sell as clean ACR'S. I don't waste time cutting and pulling every row of tubing out. You can make extra money doing that however it is time consuming. I have found for me it is not worth it, I get so many so fast I don't have extra time.
Yea if ya got the time sounds good. I found it's not worth it. The time it takes getting out the #2 copper I can be out getting more coils. Thanks so much for watching
great tip sawzal takes forever
Yes it works perfectly. Thanks for watching
yes it does when you blade is needed to change it out
So nice of you sir, you do a great job and a good and time saving technique.
Thanks for sharing God bless
Thank you for watching. More to come soon
Hello, what kind of disc is this for cutting copper pipes? Is this a regular wood disc?? Regards
This is not a disc. It is a circular saw blade. Made for cutting aluminum and soft metals. I also have other blades that cut steel. Cuts like butter.

You remind me of my old man, never used saws all... he was a skill saw master

Very good.

You are doing a fine job on evaporator cooler not Radiators
When you take them to the scrap yard they are called and paid out as copper aluminum radiators.
What type of saw blade are you using
Metal cutting circular saw blade carbide tip
@@mikehasit73 Thanks
Great video. I've only ever had one of those copper/aluminium rads. I think it came out of an AC unit. But who would need it in Ireland, I don't know LOL
They are worth good money. I fill a pallet or a little more each month. Thanks for watching
We get a ton in Florida 🤣
What makes it #2 copper, i thought it would be #1
Anything that was in or on the pipe other than copper will make it number 2. These copper aluminum radiator coils had refrigerate running through them which has an oil in it. The oil in the pipe make it number 2. Number 1 copper is clean uncontaminated copper. No paint, oil, solder, grease, etc. Hope this clears up the difference.

sir may I apply you in..I'm scrapper here in the philippinea
"time is money".... big words for someone who spent almost 10 minutes of video showing exactly the same: the easiest part...................
Thanks
It's best to do the labor then sell the copper by itself 😅
If you ever do decide to pull the straight pipes out of the rads lay them flat in a tote and soak them in vinegar for 20 mins and it'll eat the corassion off and turn it to number 1. Make sure to wash them off good or it'll turn green fast. Happy scrappy
speggetti sauce and raw eggs works way better add a lil pepper bam works like butter
Yes vinegar works great. I add salt also. I dont do it anymore. Theres just no time. I get so many so fast I just can't take the time anymore to do it. Thanks for checking this out.
sir I want to see you in live because I'm scrapper in philippinea
does it profitable to separate copper from radiator
I cut the ends off to get rid of the steel. Then sell the clean radiator with aluminum on it. I get so many so fast for me it is not worth going to the next step to separate the aluminum fins from the copper tube.
Eu trabalho com esses materiais...
How much does it cost for a kilo?
Every place pay different. Here in USA we can range 1.25-2.50 per pound. Thanks for watching
I'll be sharing you to my people. I'm also gonna shout you out in my next video!
Awesome, thank you!
Where do you find these radiators ?
I pickup for several heating and AC companies. These come from central air and heat systems
Evaporators AC units or evaporators
Com a limpeza do material, agrega um valor melhor!!♻️💱👏🏻
What type of blade do you use ?
Metal blade. Made for a circular saw
I wonder any special way of actually seperateing the pipe out . Or this take too much time. I only get a dozen of these a year.

Roe mantic sent me great video bro ...i rang ur bell lets say connected
Thanks so much! I'm here buddy !!
Nice!! i use my sawzall instead!!!! But hey what ever works!!!

What about air conditioners? Do they have much copper in them?
Yes there's great copper in an AC. But you have to have the gas removed by someone with an EPA license.
Never use a circular saw I like the grinder myself. Idk why people use a sawzall it's a pain in the ass and takes forever. Plus I strip the copper tube and them sawsall beat the shit out the aluminum
Thanks for watching. If you get to try a worm drive circular saw you see how fast it is. Nothing beats the speed. However you do it keep Scrapping!
so i just spent 10 minutes to find out you dont know how to get the long copper pipe in the center out either. thanks

The copper tubes are still in there though.

You were doing great where did ya go???
I'm here buddy!!!! Things got so so crazy busy i couldn't do everything. I didnt flim to much. I'm starting to film again and start to put more out!!!
@@mikehasit73 I'll come cut your scrap LoL
Cutting tools make mention and description
Kitab bhav he rediater ka??????????
I go one step further and pull out the copper pipes.
Yea if ya got the time sounds good. I found it's not worth it. The time it takes getting out the #2 copper I can be out getting more coils. Thanks so much for watching
@@mikehasit73 soak them in vinegar and salt for 20 mins. It'll turn the copper to number 1. Rinse as soon as you pull them out. Boom number 1 copper
Roe Manic sent me - I'll be back
Thank you so much!!
You actually bought one of those saws? Or?
Yes I have a few worm drive saws that I have bought
