Answer

Turbine bucket value depends on the turbine make and model, stage (Stage 1 buckets are worth the most), alloy, condition, and whether they are serviceable or scrap. Serviceable Stage 1 buckets from a GE Frame 7 can be worth $500 to $5,000 each. Scrap buckets are worth their alloy content — typically $15 to $30+ per pound for Inconel and Rene alloys.

Related Questions

What are gas turbine buckets? +
Gas turbine buckets (also called turbine blades) are the rotating airfoil components in the hot section of a gas turbine engine. They are made from high-temperature nickel superalloys like Inconel, Rene, and Waspaloy. Turbine buckets are among the most valuable components in a gas turbine due to their exotic alloy content.
Do you buy turbine buckets for scrap or resale? +
Both — we buy turbine buckets for resale when they are serviceable or repairable, and for scrap when they are beyond repair. We always assess the resale potential first, as serviceable buckets are worth significantly more than scrap value.
What turbine makes do you buy buckets for? +
We buy turbine buckets for all major makes including GE (Frame 5, 6, 7, 9), Siemens (W501, W701, SGT series), Alstom/GE (GT11, GT13), Solar (Centaur, Mars, Titan), Mitsubishi (M501, M701), Rolls-Royce, and many others.
Do you buy turbine buckets in any condition? +
Yes — we buy turbine buckets in all conditions including new, used-serviceable, used-repairable, and scrap. Even severely damaged or cracked buckets have alloy scrap value.
