Copper tubing and wire with paint, solder joints, or light corrosion. Old plumbing systems, roofing copper, and burnt-end wire all grade as #2.
#2 copper takes the paint, solder, tar, and light corrosion that #1 can't. It's still a strong payer — the key is keeping brass, steel, and heavy contamination out.
