Starting in Europe in July 2006, the purpose of the RoHS directive (2002/95/EC- Restriction on Hazardous Substances) is the restriction of the use of hazardous substances in EEE to the protection of human health and to contribute to the environmentally sound recovery and disposal of WEEE. The RoHS directive defines among other things the allowable content of lead. The product is classified as lead-free, if the lead content does not exceed 0.1 percent by weight of the total mass.
We deliver “lead-free” and “RoHS-compliant” components according to customer order, with clear identification on the delivery and packaging note.
