Cord prongs

I have noticed that also. I think the silvery prongs are brass, maybe with more nickel in the alloy. Just a guess, though.

They are plated brass just like collapsible antennas and some bullet shells. Just throw them in a seperate bucket as the price will be a little lower than clean brass.


Good luck

My yard takes it all the same. I asked them one day about the nickel plated brass keys, and they said just throw them in with all the other brass. I dont pull the brass prongs, I just clip them off. I have gotten a few of the plated ones also, and just put them in with the other brass. Check with your yard and use the example of the plated brass keys if they are unsure of what you are talking about.

Yard takes them as brass same as when you have a crome plated sink faucet...
