Have you completed your response to environmental regulations and RoHS 2 regarding lead-free compliance? Including selection materials as well.
We are being urged to comply with lead-free requirements under RoHS2 and various environmental regulations. Please consult Tatsumiya Metal, which specializes in materials and also conducts cutting processing in-house.
The various environmental laws and regulations represented by RoHS2, as well as the restrictions on the use of "lead" by various industry organizations, are gradually becoming a reality. At Tatsumiya Metal, we can make accurate proposals based on our extensive sales achievements in the materials division for lead-free brass alloys, silicon-based alloys represented by Eco Brass, and bismuth-based alloys, as well as our considerable experience and achievements in our own machining division. <Current Status Regarding Lead-Free Brass> - The free-cutting brass, which has about 4% lead added for improved machinability, is currently subject to exclusion regulations and is in a grace period. - Unless Europe provides accurate proposals for alternative materials, the exclusion regulations will also be abolished. - From July 21, 2021, conventional leaded brass will no longer be usable in products for industries and major companies that apply RoHS and various environmental regulations. <Current Response Status> - Various manufacturers are developing lead-free brass, and application tests are being conducted by respective users and industry organizations. - Features of lead-free products: - Bismuth-based: Alloys with bismuth added instead of lead. - Silicon-based: Alloys with silicon added instead of lead. - Low-lead brass: Brass with reduced lead content. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Company information
<Metal Materials Trading Division> With a rich inventory and four slitting facilities, we supply from the Higashi-Osaka Coil Center to the entire country. We specialize in the sales of copper alloy materials and non-ferrous metal materials. We are also actively proposing the next-generation copper-aluminum clad material "CCAC" in collaboration with Applied Composite Material Corp. <Metal Processing Division> We excel in processing small quantities of various metal pipes. Our diverse technologies include coil winding, R-bending, various bending processes, and welding. We handle everything from one-off parts used in heat exchanger components and machinery to larger quantities for automotive, consumer, and housing equipment. In the world of bending processing, where small lots are common, the presence or absence of molds becomes quite important. We mix our own molds and equipment with those from partner factories to provide tailored proposals. Additionally, our NC automatic lathe precision cutting processing leverages the procurement advantages unique to Tatsumiya, which has a metal materials trading division, enhancing customer satisfaction through technical expertise, procurement capabilities, and cost efficiency. With over 90 years of establishment as a processing trading company, we view the 100-year mark as a milestone and will continue to build a great company in the future.
