Latest News and Developments:
- December 2025: Shanghai Metals Market (SMM), a China-based commodity information and pricing agency, announced updates to its pricing standards and assessment methodology for secondary refined lead, following regulators’ new standards on “Secondary Lead Ingot”. The revision refines price ranges for secondary refined lead products.
Product Description
A lead ingot is a metallic mass of lead that is typically cast into a specific shape, most commonly rectangular or cylindrical, for ease of handling, transportation, and storage. Lead ingots are produced through a process known as smelting, where lead ore is heated at high temperatures in a furnace to extract pure lead metal. Once extracted, the molten lead is poured into molds to cool and solidify into ingots.
Lead ingots are a versatile material with high density, corrosion resistance, and malleability, used in various industries such as construction, automotive, electronics, and batteries. They are used for roofing, cladding, radiation shielding, and making lead-acid batteries in the automotive sector. Lead ingots can be melted down and molded into various shapes and sizes for specific applications. However, lead is a toxic metal that poses significant health and environmental risks if not handled properly. Efforts are made to minimize lead exposure and recycle lead products to reduce environmental impact.
