My firm will sell you a higher grade steel and a higher alloy copper for $95 and$69 a ton, respectively, freight prepaid, which saves you an extra $3 a ton. Plus, we'll guarantee our metal will produce a waste factor of 15% or less, and we'll replace any wasted coverage, free.

waste over and above the 15% warrant
The firm warrants that the waste factor will be 15% or lower, if the actual waste exceeds that number, then the firm will make it up for you for any excess free of charge.

Yes, but if the waste is 15% or less, then it is good enough, maybe much better than that of competitors' products. So you can't expect a zero waste, only those exceeding that guaranteed will be replaced with new compensations free of charge.

I think they just replace the quantity of the part which exceeds the 15% guarantee.

| wasted coverage-the amount of material that cannot be used.. this is the idea that came to my mind while reading the text |
| so the idea is that they replace the metal which produces a waste factor above 15%? |
