Why it's dangerous
The solders in the product have an excessive concentration of lead (measured value: 63.6% by weight) In addition, the product contains excessive concentrations of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) (.value: 1.7% by weight). The plastic of the product also contains short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCP) (measured value up to 1,7 % by weight). Lead poses a risk to the environment.

Prolonged exposure to them through the skin may cause cancer.
