Radiator scrap can include aluminium-copper cores, car radiators, HVAC coils, plastic tanks and steel brackets. Composition changes the value. Final SA Copper Scraps pricing is confirmed in store after inspection, grading and weighing.
Radiator scrap can include aluminium-copper cores, car radiators, HVAC coils, plastic tanks and steel brackets. Composition changes the value. The table gives a public guide, then the sections below explain the material categories that make this page different from other price pages.
| Material / grade | Indicative public benchmark | Pricing note |
|---|---|---|
| Copper #1 / clean pipe | A$13.00-$13.75/kg | Clean copper pipe, busbar and heavier copper without solder or contamination. |
| Aluminium extrusion | A$2.30-$2.90/kg | Clean extrusion, frames and profiles without steel attachments. |
| Aluminium-copper radiators | Assessed in store | Value depends on copper tubes, aluminium fins, steel attachments, size and cleanliness. |
The page is built for quick decisions before visiting the Green Fields yard. Use it to identify the likely grade, prepare the material and understand what the team checks in store.
Use the table as a starting point, not as a guaranteed payout.
Keep radiators separate from steel, rubbish and unrelated metals where practical.
Call 08 7225 9998 for current guidance, then bring material to 12 Belfree Dr, Green Fields SA 5107.
Final value is confirmed in store after inspection, grade confirmation and weighing.
Two loads with the same material name can pay differently because grades, attachments and recoverable metal content are different.
| Entity | Attribute | Value |
|---|---|---|
| radiators | Grade | Aluminium-copper radiators, Car radiators, HVAC coils |
| radiators | Cleanliness | Dry, sorted material with fewer attachments is faster to assess and usually clearer to grade. |
| radiators | Weight | Final payment depends on the confirmed in-store weight after the material is checked. |
| radiators | Market movement | Public benchmark ranges can move with copper, aluminium, lead, steel, currency and local yard demand. |
| radiators | Contamination | Steel, plastic, rubber, oil, paint, moisture, mixed rubbish and unsafe handling can reduce value. |
Use these notes to identify what you have before calling or visiting.
Copper tubes and aluminium fins are assessed for cleanliness.
Plastic tanks and steel attachments affect the final grade.
Clean coils can be easier to value when separated.
Call SA Copper Scraps or request a quote before visiting. Final pricing is confirmed in store after material is inspected, graded and weighed.
Price pages work best when visitors can see the practical buying process: sorted scrap, clean material and in-store assessment before payment.
Cleaner preparation helps the yard assess the material faster and reduces confusion between grades.
These examples show why the final price is confirmed only after the material is seen and weighed.
| Entity | Attribute | Value |
|---|---|---|
| radiators | Clean HVAC coil | Often clearer to grade. |
| radiators | Plastic-tank car radiator | Plastic and steel reduce recoverable metal. |
| radiators | Mixed radiator load | Sorted by composition before weighing. |
These pages use public Adelaide and Australian scrap market references as decision support. SA Copper Scraps still confirms its own current in-store price after inspection.

These links are kept focused on closely related material types so the page does not repeat the same internal-link block as every other price guide.
Radiator scrap can include aluminium-copper cores, car radiators, HVAC coils, plastic tanks and steel brackets. Composition changes the value. Public May 2026 benchmarks start around A$13.00-$13.75/kg, then the final amount is set by in-store grading and weighing.
Aluminium-copper radiators, Car radiators, HVAC coils are the main categories to keep apart before visiting.
Separate coils from mixed steel where practical. Keep plastic-heavy car radiators together. Avoid mixing radiators with general rubbish. Tell the team if the load is HVAC, automotive or mixed.
No. These are public market guide ranges reviewed in May 2026. Final pricing is confirmed after material is inspected, graded and weighed in store.
radiators can be reduced by mixed metals, attached steel, plastic, rubber, oil, moisture, paint, unsafe handling or unclear material separation.
The team checks the material type, separates the grade where needed, weighs the accepted material and confirms the current in-store rate before payment.
Yes. Separating radiators from steel, rubbish, plastic, rubber and other metals makes the assessment clearer and helps avoid mixed-load pricing.
Public scrap guides use different update times, grade assumptions and market references. Treat online figures as guidance only until the yard checks the exact material.
Yes. Call 08 7225 9998 with the material type, estimated quantity and condition so the team can give practical guidance before you bring the load to Green Fields.
