What Determines Catalytic Converter Value?
There is not one price that applies to every catalytic converter. Two converters can look similar while having very different recycling values.
Converter Identification
The identification number, manufacturer, vehicle application and converter type can help determine what material is contained inside and how the converter is evaluated for recycling.
Precious Metal Content
Catalytic converters can contain platinum, palladium and rhodium. The amount and combination of these materials varies between converter types and applications.
OEM or Aftermarket
Original equipment and aftermarket converters can have different material compositions. The specific converter matters more than simply assuming that every converter of a particular size has the same value.
Current Recycling Markets
Catalytic converter values can change as the recycling market and platinum-group-metal markets change. That is why a fixed online price should not be treated as a guaranteed offer.
Want to Know What Your Converter May Be Worth?
Start with the actual converter rather than a generic price list. Visit our Catalytic Converter Scrap Prices page to learn more about the factors that affect scrap value.
