| Product Description : |
The manufacturing process of this battery begins with a rugged cast grid usually made from a lead alloy containing from 3-6% antimony. The grids are pasted on an automatic machine with a specially compounded mixture of lead oxide (finely divided lead) water and sulfuric acid. Following the pasting operation, the plates are “cured” by a process that converts the active material in the plate to the desired composition and which causes the paste to set to a hard cement-like mass. Plates made this way are extremely rugged and will “ring like a bell” when
struck. The plates and cells made in this process are very consistent. |
