RF feeder coaxial cable is a kind of more complex cable. Some may think it more difficult to process. While in fact it just needs double stripping to scrap it, that's to say, to strip the wire again for twice.

Interesting. If only there was some kind of machine that would recover the copper for you....
I'm sure there is but what would that be??Quote:

Have anyone tried it and whats the pros and cons?
Alright.. Ignore the second part... I see that had already been discussed before... :p
I feel like the Billy Hayes (r.I.p) of the scrap world keeps bombarding everyone with cheesy latenight infomercials, when I read some of these threads.
Can you tell us how a copper granulator - slices, dices, brightens my whites, and cooks my eggs perfectly?
And thats not all. If you order in the next 20 minutes we will give you another one. All you have to pay is shipping and handling of $425,000 ;)
For those who might be wondering about striping coax first check the center conductor(solid wire in the center) to see if a magnet will stick to it. Most of the coax used by cable tv companies has a copper coated steel wire in the center and is not worth any effort other than clipping off the connectors which are brass. Mike.
I have noticed that the older coax is usually a solid copper core. You can tell right away by how flexible the wire is.
Just set it, and forget it.Quote:

Where have I heard that before,,,;)Quote:

How would you do that? Pyrolize does not involve burning as oxygen is absent.
