Types of Lead Available for Sale
Nuclead offers several forms of lead to match the specific needs of manufacturers, engineers, fabricators, and end-users. All lead products are tested for purity, density, and quality before shipping.
Scrap Lead
Lead scrap is a popular choice for customers who want to melt and recycle lead for secondary production. It provides an economical way to source material for casting, reprocessing, and alloying.
Available in bulk quantities
Sorted and cleaned to remove contaminants
Great for ammunition manufacturers, ballast casting, or foundries
Includes cuttings, sheeting, pipe, and miscellaneous lead parts
Lead Ingots
Lead ingots are cast blocks of pure or alloyed lead, ideal for precise industrial applications. These ingots are ready to be melted and poured into molds or used in manufacturing.
Available in pure (99.9%) or alloyed formats
Consistent weight and dimensions for batch melting
Custom stamping or labeling available
Commonly used in x-ray shielding, radiation labs, and soldering applications
Recycled Lead
Environmentally conscious buyers choose recycled lead to reduce costs and support sustainability goals. Nuclead processes and resells high-grade recycled lead with verified purity levels.
