Why Lead?

Lead is the preferred material for marine ballast because of its exceptional density, allowing more weight in less space. It is durable, corrosion-resistant, and widely used in sailboats, yachts, racing boats, and other marine applications requiring concentrated weight.

Lead Safety

Lead should be handled using appropriate safety precautions. We recommend wearing gloves when handling raw lead products and washing hands thoroughly after handling.
