METAl LEAD

Product Description

Lead Ingot is used in a number of applications including battery segment leadbased pigments and cathode ray tubes Our refined lead metal is available in standard 24 kgs ingots

The battery sector is the single largest consumer of lead accounting for around threequarters of the demand It can be subdivided into the following groups

SLI StartingLightingIgnition batteries which currently accounts for over half of the total lead demand These are mainly used in cars and light vehicles but are also found in other applications such as golf carts and boats SLI battery demand in turn can be split into original equipment and replacement with replacement demand outstripping original equipment demand by about 41 in mature markets

Industrial batteries which currently consumes around a quarter of the total lead produced This sector can be split roughly 5050 into stationary and traction batteries Stationary batteries are principally used in back up power supply systems traction batteries are used for motive power in equipment such as forklift trucks and motorised wheelchairs

The remainder is used in nonbattery applications The second largest current end use of lead for nonbattery applications accounting for around 20 of lead consumption is the alloys and chemical industry in the form of leadbased alloys pigments and other compounds Principal markets are for cathode ray tubes used in television screens and computer monitors and for Poly Vinyl Chloride PVC stabilisers Cable and other industries account for the remaining 5 of lead demand Also made various size  shapes as per customers requirement
