Lead Foils are produced according to customers’ requirements based
on all common alloys and dimensions.
Alloys
- Pb : basis 99,5 - 99,999%
- Sn : 0,00 to 6% see solder foils
- Sb : 0,00 - 4%
- Further alloy elements are Ag, Cu.
Dimensions -- Widths: 4.0 to 1.000 mm (.16 to 39 inches)
depending on thickness and Alloy
Thicknesses -- 0.015 to 0.5 mm (.0006 to .02 inches) depending on
width and alloy
Coil weights -- depending on width and thickness up to 500 kg
(1100 lbs)/coil
