Machine shops: that bucket of worn inserts and end mills in the corner is worth more than you think.

RRCarbide buys carbide scrap by mail from shops across the country: inserts, end mills, larger bits, and turnings.

🧲 Tip: carbide is slightly magnetic, so don't toss it in with steel just because your magnet stuck. Not sure what you have? Keep it separate. We check every load with a metal analyzer.

Every receipt from our scale has three numbers on it. Here's what they mean:

⚖️ Gross: your whole load, bucket included
