They often contain Rhodium, which is much more expensive than paladium or platinum. Rhodium is 4200 per ounce.

Catalytic converters vary GREATLY in the precious metal contents amount from unit to unit. Example:
A cat from a 94 Honda accord ULEV has about 250-375$ of precious metal. The prices difference j say relates to price fluctuations in the market but is an accurate representation. Compare that to A replacement catalytic converter that you would weld in or an aftermarket cat converter may have $10.
Typically your older Japanese car catalytic converter is Toyota Honda Lexus Acura have very sought after cats from say 2010 and earlier. Same thing applies to pick up trucks and SUVs not as much w domestics, Until you get to full-size trucks like the Ford F150, which has a very valuable cat, typically the bigger, the gas engine, the bigger the catalyst to offset admissions. Catalytic converters and emission systems are also required to operate properly from the manufacture for 150, 000 miles. Bigger trucks, bigger, cats, more value. Older Japanese cars and European vehicles have highly sought after recyclable cat converters. I’ve recycled some cat converters off of older Audi from the late 80s to early 90s that were worth five and $600 apiece at first stage recycling! So your Honda gets its catalytic converter cut out the guy that did it can expect to get at least $100 bill for it. If it’s an aftermarket unit, he’ll be lucky to get anything for it.

So for every three catalytic converter you get one gram of platinum😅 that explains why those fuckers cut off my cats😅😅😮

[garythompson]

Enthusiasm that's a third of a gram of platinum & or palladium! YA! 1/3 gram

[keithrobicheux]

So those junkies are chopping up people's cars for something around $20-$50? That makes sense

Hey there in my car this converter burned and spoiled like charcoal... And i replaced it a second one. but is that possible to extract those valuable materials from that spoiled thing ⁉️

[ryanssupra]

I have a bunch of crushed up cat material what would a guy have to do to send it to you?

[eshootziscrs]

Netted $10 in a one minute video, not bad.

Hauled a load of the catalintic converter guts for new cats . I remember it was gray area placards as a inhalation hazard . Wear a mask when you work with that crap.

$7.79 is his total

As of today June 7th, 2024 A gram of platinum is 31.16$. Divided by 1/4 or 0.25 = 7.79$

A good broker will round up to 10$

[algray]

So why are these being stolen if it takes THAT much effort and time?

[tomvarallo]

I just look it up 1 gram of Platinum is worth 32$

[kevinholland]

I always wondered who bought stolen Catalytic converters

[keithstubblefield]

If that is the only value that there is Which is about 30 Dollars, They wouldn't pay what they do for them at the junkyard. This video cannot be true it goes against the math

[northidahoshorts]

This is basically how to guide for criminals.😂 now they’re just gonna smell down the catalytic converter‘s to make it untraceable. Nice video though!
