TM* grade ia referred to in the tredo ea chocleal lead because it ia need primarily by the cheated lnduatry. The presenoo of silver ctd copper were found to add to the corroaioo resistance and laprove creep and fatigue

Antiacnld or hard lead la ordinary lead to which has been added any* where froa 1 to 12 per cent aatiwoey. This serves to harden the lead ard laprove the physical characteristics. However, it oust be reaeebered that the presence of aatisoqy lowers ths eelting point end does not enhance lead's oorrosioa characteristics.
Tellurins lead is cheoied lead to which has been added eJproxlaately O.Oii psr cent tellurlt*. Tellurian retards grain growth and thereby increases the fatigue resistance,
