Have you completed your response to environmental regulations and RoHS 2 for 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 its own machining.
Regulations and restrictions on the use of "lead," as represented by RoHS2 and various environmental laws and industry associations, are gradually becoming a reality. At Tatsumiya Metal, we can make accurate proposals based on our extensive sales achievements in lead-free brass alloys, silicon-based alloys represented by Eco Brass, and bismuth-based alloys, as well as our considerable experience in our own machining department. <Current Status of Lead-Free Brass Response> - For free-cutting brass, which has about 4% lead added to improve machinability, exclusion regulations are currently applied, and a grace period has been established. - Unless Europe provides accurate proposals for alternative materials, the exclusion regulations will also be abolished. - From July 21, 2021, conventional lead-containing brass will no longer be usable in products for industries and major companies subject to RoHS and various environmental regulations. <Current Response Status> - Each manufacturer is developing lead-free brass, and application tests are being conducted by various users and industry associations. - 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 materials nationwide from our Higashi-Osaka Coil Center. We specialize in the sale of copper alloy materials and non-ferrous metal materials. In addition to traditional copper alloy materials, we are actively promoting the next-generation copper-aluminum clad material "CCA" in collaboration with ACM (Applied Composite Material Corp.). <Metal Processing Division> We excel in processing small quantities of a wide variety of metal pipes. Our diverse techniques 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 residential applications. In the world of bending processing, where small lots are common, the presence or absence of molds becomes quite important. We propose a mix of our own molds and equipment, as well as those from partner factories. Additionally, our precision cutting processing using NC automatic lathes leverages the procurement advantages unique to Tatsumiya, which has a metal materials trading division, enhancing customer satisfaction through technical expertise, procurement power, 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.
