ELV Compliant Products - End of Life Vehicles (ELV) Directive 2000/53/EC requires that impacted products be free of mercury, cadmium and lead as of 2003-7-1. Lead can still be used as an alloying additive in copper and in solderable applications. These products comply with the ELV directive.
RoHS Compliant Products - Restrictions on Certain Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive 2002/95/EC requires that impacted products be free of mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB, PBDE and lead as of 2006-7-1. Lead can still be used as an alloying additive in copper. These products comply with the RoHS directive. Each of these products also comply with the ELV directive unless specifically indicated as RoHS/Not ELV compliant.
