LEAD PRODUCTS
There are different uses of lead both as the metal and as its chemical
compounds, all considered as lead products. Lead products are used as
the metal predominates and may well be alloyed with other materials
depending on the application. The various lead products are used in
various fields such as, Ammunition and metallic lead products, lead
products for cable covering / sheathing, lead products for type metal
production, radiation protection, and many more.
Radiation Protection lead products uses only the purest lead available.
Absolutely no refining of the lead takes place in the making. Lead is
consumed in the manufacture of ammunition, bearing metals, and other
lead products, with subsequent lead emissions. The other lead products
are the cable coverings. The manufacture of cured jacketed cables
involves a stripping/re-melt operation as an unalloyed lead cover that
is applied in the vulcanizing treatment during the manufacture of
rubber-insulated cable must be stripped from the cable and re-melted.
The lead products are also used for the type metal production. Emissions
& controls and metallurgical industries also make use of the lead
products. The lead products are also the main component of the lead acid
batteries.
There is a vast list of the uses of the lead products. These are only some
basic uses of the lead products. Lead products are made by the
controlled addition of lead to the other elements. Some basic examples
of lead products are lead sheets, lead powder, lead pipes, lead
wires/rods, and many more.
