LEAD
Lead (Pb), derived from the Latin word Plumbum, is a dense and durable metal with an atomic number of 82. Known for its high density, low melting point, and excellent malleability, lead has been widely used in various industrial applications, including batteries, construction materials, radiation shielding, cable sheathing, and specialized manufacturing processes.
LEAD SHOTS
Lead Shots are small spherical pellets manufactured from lead and lead-based alloys. Due to their high density and uniform shape, they are used in a variety of industrial, commercial, and balancing applications where concentrated weight and stability are required.
These pellets are typically produced by melting lead and allowing it to form rounded spheres through specialized manufacturing processes. One of the most common methods involves dropping molten lead from a controlled height into a cooling medium, where the material solidifies into smooth, spherical shapes. Alloying elements such as tin and antimony may be added to enhance hardness, durability, and performance.

LEAD COPPER CABLE
Lead Copper Cable, commonly known as Relay, consists of copper cable protected by a lead sheath or covering. This specialized cable was widely used in telecommunications, electrical distribution, and underground utility networks due to its excellent conductivity and enhanced resistance to moisture and environmental conditions.
The lead sheath serves as a protective barrier, shielding the copper conductor from moisture, corrosion, and other external factors that could affect performance and reliability. Historically, lead-covered copper cables were extensively installed in underground telephone systems, power transmission networks, and communication infrastructure where long-term durability was essential.
Lead Copper Cable Scrap contains valuable recoverable materials, including high-grade copper and lead, making it an important commodity in the metal recycling industry. Through specialized processing and separation techniques, both metals can be efficiently recovered and reused in the production of new products.
WHEEL WEIGHTS
Wheel Weights, commonly known as Ropes, consist primarily of lead tire balancing weights recovered from automobiles, trucks, and other vehicles. These weights are attached to wheels to ensure proper balance, improve vehicle performance, and reduce tire wear during operation.

LEAD BATTERY PLATES
Lead Battery Plates, commonly known as Rails, are recyclable lead components recovered from automotive, industrial, and specialty batteries. These plates represent one of the most valuable sources of secondary lead due to their high lead content and suitability for refining and reuse.
INDOOR RANGE LEAD
Indoor Range Lead is a recyclable lead scrap material recovered from indoor shooting and training facilities. Over time, spent projectiles accumulate in bullet traps and collection systems, creating a valuable source of recoverable lead for recycling and refining purposes.

SOFT MIX LEAD
Soft Mix Lead, commonly known as Radio, is a high-quality lead scrap grade consisting of clean lead solids with minimal contamination. This material is valued for its high lead content, excellent recyclability, and suitability for refining and remanufacturing applications.
