    Its not a pipe flange, but some sort of machinery part.

    If it was a pipe flange it would have markings around the rim, including telling you what material it was.

    Yep, your yard will likely tell you it goes into the steel bin. Anything ....''foreign'' as well as magnetic goes as steel. it wouldn't even qualify as Irony.

    I've got a couple of yards were that would get 14 or 15 cents a pound as magnetic stainless. Main yard says shred because they don't have a gun to test it. Other yards don't bother testing it.
