PRECISION RESISTOR COMPANY's Compliance with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive: 2002/95/EC

Committed to comply with all national and international laws and requirements, PRECISION RESISTOR COMPANY (PRC) has implemented the European Union's Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive and begun exclusively using lead-free solders on all incoming orders placed after April 1, 2005.

In certain cases, purchase orders may be filled partially or completely from our stock inventory, until PRC's stock is depleted. Therefore, we are asking our customers to please indicate on your purchase order(s) if you require PRC's products to be compliant with the RoHS Directive.

Currently in use, is our newly developed lead-free solder mixture consisting of tin, silver and copper (sn-ag-cu).

Of the six restricted hazardous substances: Lead, mercury, hexavalent chromium, cadmium, and specific bromine-based flame-retardants PBB (polybrominated biphenyl) and PBDE (polybrominated diphenyl), only lead directly affects PRC's end-products.
