Lead Ingots

We are buying Lead ingots of both LME and non-registered brands. Lead is a soft, ductile metal that resists both oxygen and acids. Lead has the advantage of a very high density, low melting temperature and good malleability which enables lead articles to be cast, joined & shaped easily. It also has high electrical conductivity. This makes it extremely important for the automotive industry, which buys around 80 per cent of all lead to produce for use in car batteries.

Where is lead used ?

Lead’s primary usage is for the production of batteries. In fact, more than 80% of world production goes into the manufacture of lead acid batteries which play an important part in the starter mechanism for automobiles.

Lead is also used in a wide variety of products found in and around our homes.  including paint, ceramics, pipes and plumbing materials, solders, gasoline, batteries and cosmetics.

Other end uses for lead include underwater cable sheathing, glassware, solder and roof sheeting.

Lead also has qualities that allow it to protect against ionizing radiation and x-rays. Walls and ceilings in hospital x-ray rooms are therefore covered with lead, and thanks to its high density, lead is used in the keels of sailing boats.

Remelted Lead Ingots

We Import Remelted Lead Ingots / Blocks, which contains about 99-98% Lead Metal with remaining Impurity Elements (Total 1-2%) as Antimony, Tin, Arsenic, Iron, Bismuth, Copper etc. This is commercially called as ‘Raw Lead or Lead Bullion’, which is further processed to Pure Lead (99.97 purity) and / or Specific Lead Alloys. Remelted Lead Ingots is being produced by Smelting Operation done in Blast Furnace / Rotary Furnace. India considered as one of the biggest Importer of this product.

Refined or Pure Lead Ingots

Refined Lead Ingots are produced from Raw Lead Bullions/ Remelted Lead Ingots/ Secondary Lead Ingots / Lead Scraps through Pyro Metallurgical process. Our sourced refined Pure Lead Ingots come with a purity level of 99.97% to 99.985% by weight. At our sourcing facility, Refined (or Pure) Lead Ingots are manufactured from either Remelted Lead Ingots or Lead Scrap. Each piece of these ingots produced by us has as purity of 99.98%. The manufacturing plant is equipped with four advanced Refining Kettles with 50 MT, 25 MT and 15 MT (two) Capacity. Well-trained professionals monitor the entire manufacturing process right from start till finish to create Refined Lead Ingots that are durable, flexible and flawless.
