What Is Heavy Copper Tube (98%)?

Heavy Copper Tube refers to copper pipe that is:

  • Clean and free from fittings

  • Not excessively soldered

  • Not burnt

  • Free from heavy contamination

  • High copper content (typically 98%+)

It is commonly generated from:

  • Commercial plumbing removals

  • Heating system upgrades

  • Industrial pipe strip-outs

  • Boiler room decommissioning

  • Construction site demolition

The heavier and cleaner the pipe, the stronger the price per kg.

Difference Between Heavy Copper Tube & Clean Copper Tube

Heavy Copper Tube is what we class as 98% pure copper. Because of its purity and weight, it often commands a strong scrap rate.

If fittings or brass joints remain attached, it may be downgraded to mixed copper.

To maximise your return:

✔ Remove brass fittings
✔ Keep separate from braziery or mixed copper
✔ Do not mix with insulated cable

Correct sorting protects your price.

Why Heavy Copper Tube Has Strong Scrap Value

Copper remains one of the most valuable non-ferrous metals due to global demand in:

  • Construction

  • Renewable energy

  • Infrastructure projects

  • Electrical systems

Recycling copper saves significant energy compared to mining new material. Because of this, demand for recycled heavy copper remains consistently strong.

When copper markets rise, heavy copper tube prices often follow quickly.
