  • Exclusion(s):

    Establishments primarily engaged in:

    • smelting, refining, rolling, drawing, extruding and alloying aluminum (See 3313 Alumina and Aluminum Production and Processing)

33141 - Non-Ferrous Metal (except Aluminum) Smelting and Refining

This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in smelting non-ferrous metals, except aluminum, from ores; and refining these metals by electrolytic or other processes. Establishments engaged in secondary activities, such as rolling or extruding basic shapes, from metal produced in the same establishment, are included.

  • Exclusion(s):

    Establishments primarily engaged in:

    • producing bullion at a mine site (See 21222 Gold and Silver Ore Mining)
    • aluminum smelting and refining (See 33131 Alumina and Aluminum Production and Processing)
    • rolling, drawing, extruding and alloying purchased copper (See 33142 Copper Rolling, Drawing, Extruding and Alloying)
    • rolling, drawing, extruding and alloying purchased non-ferrous metals, except aluminum and copper (See 33149 Non-Ferrous Metal (except Copper and Aluminum) Rolling, Drawing, Extruding and Alloying)

33142 - Copper Rolling, Drawing, Extruding and Alloying

This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in rolling, drawing, extruding and re-alloying copper, brass, bronze and other copper-based alloys, to produce products such as plates, sheets, strips, bars, wire and tubing, and specialty alloys. Establishments primarily engaged in drawing copper wire (whether or not the establishment further works the wire by such operations as insulating it); and in recovering copper from scrap, are included.

  • Exclusion(s):

    Establishments primarily engaged in:

    • manufacturing copper and copper alloy products in a smelter or refinery (See 33141 Non-Ferrous Metal (except Aluminum) Smelting and Refining)
    • casting copper (See 33152 Non-Ferrous Metal Foundries)
    • insulating purchased copper wire and cable (See 33592 Communication and Energy Wire and Cable Manufacturing)

33149 - Non-Ferrous Metal (except Copper and Aluminum) Rolling, Drawing, Extruding and Alloying

This industry comprises establishments, not classified to any other industry, primarily engaged in rolling, drawing, extruding and re-alloying non-ferrous metals, to produce products such as plates, sheets, strips, bars, wire and tubing, and specialty alloys. Establishments primarily engaged in drawing wire of these metals are included (whether or not the establishment further works the wire by such operations as insulating it); and in recovering these metals from scrap, are included.

  • Exclusion(s):

    Establishments primarily engaged in:

    • manufacturing non-ferrous metal (except aluminum) products in a smelter or refinery (See 33141 Non-Ferrous Metal (except Aluminum) Smelting and Refining)
