Battery Red Lead
IMPROVES FORMATION & EFFICIENCY
Battery red lead is commonly used in the positive plate to improve formation efficiency and initial capacity. Hammond offers red lead in various percentages determined by the customer’s application.
Industrial Oxides
DESIGNED FOR DEEP-CYCLING &
STANDBY POWER APPLICATIONS
Hammond consistently produces custom lead oxides for batteries that require deep-cycling performance, like those used in forklifts, golf cars, floor scrubbers, and e-Bikes. Red lead is often used for these applications and for batteries that provide standby power in case of the main supply failure in data centers, telecommunications towers, hospitals, and power plants.
Sustainability in Action
RECYCLED LEAD IS A PRIMARY SOURCE IN PRODUCING OXIDES FOR OUR CUSTOMERS
Hammond works with our global automotive and industrial customers to supply their specific needs. The majority of our oxides are produced by sourcing sustainable, renewable, and recycled lead.
