Lead and lead alloys - Scraps - Terms and definitions
This European Standard defines specific terms which are helpful for the communication within the lead industry and its customers relating to scrap of lead and lead alloys.
A clear terminology and classification of these materials, new and used, recovered from products and processes is also contained. No reference is made either to commercial terms of commercial contracts and conditions such as collection, weighing, shipping, receiving and claims or technical values such as lead and alloying elements content, analyticals and physical characteristics such as size and weight. No reference is made to regulatory environmental, health and safety considerations. A glossary (see clause 4) comprises all terms which are defined in this standard and their translations into French and German in alphabetical order.
Blei und Bleilegierungen - Schrotte - Begriffe
Diese Europäische Norm legt spezifische Begriffe fest, die für die Verständigung zwischen Bleiindustrie und deren Kunden im Bereich der Schrotte aus Blei und Bleilegierungen hilfreich sind.
Ebenso ist eine Terminologie und Klassifizierung dieser Werkstoffe, sowohl im neuen und im gebrauchten Zustand, als auch aus Produkten und Prozessen zurückgewonnen, enthalten. Es sind keine handelsüblichen Begriffe für Ver-
träge und Bedingungen enthalten, z. B. Erfassen, Wägen, Versand, Annahme und Nachforderungen oder technische Werte, z. B. Gehalt an Blei und an Legierungselementen, analytische und physikalische Merkmale, z. B. Größe und Gewicht. Auf amtliche Festlegungen, bezogen auf Umwelt, Gesundheit und Sicherheit wird nicht verwiesen. Ein Glos-
sar (siehe Abschnitt 4) enthält alphabetisch geordnet alle in dieser Norm definierten Begriffe sowie deren englische und französische Übersetzungen.
Plomb et alliages de plomb - Scrappes (matieres premieres de recyclage) - Termes et définitions
La présente Norme européenne définit des termes spécifiques qui facilitent la communication dans l'industrie du plomb et avec ses clients en matière de scrappes et d'alliages de plomb.
Elle contient également une terminologie et une classification claires de ces matériaux, neufs ou de recyclage, à partir de produits et de processus. Il n'est fait référence ni à des termes commerciaux relevant de contrats et de conditions commerciales telles que collecte, pesage, expédition, réception et réclamations ni à des valeurs techniques telle que teneur en plomb et en éléments d'alliage ou à des caractéristiques analytiques et physiques telles que les dimensions ou le poids. Les aspects réglementaires liés à l'environnement, la santé et la sécurité ne sont pas traités. Un glossaire (voir article 4) reprend tous les termes définis dans la présente norme et donne leur traduction en anglais et en allemand, dans l'ordre alphabétique.

Overview
EN 14057:2003 - Lead and lead alloys - Scraps - Terms and definitions is a CEN (European) standard that establishes clear terminology and a classification scheme for scrap materials of lead and lead alloys. Its primary purpose is to improve communication between the lead industry and its customers by defining terms for new and used materials recovered from products and processes. The standard also provides a multilingual glossary (English, French, German) to support consistent use across Europe.
Key topics and requirements
- Defined material groups: The standard classifies lead scrap into six main groups:
- Unalloyed lead scrap (soft lead, cable sheathing, tarry cable sheathing)
- Alloyed lead scrap (hard lead, wheel weights, type/print metals, white metals/babbitt)
- Lead‑acid battery scrap (whole batteries and battery components such as metallic components, battery paste, plates)
- Leaded glass
- Other scrap (dross, fumes, residues)
- Lead scrap mixture (combinations of the above, excluding radioactive materials)
- Glossary and multilingual translations: Alphabetical glossary listing all defined terms with French and German equivalents to ensure consistent, cross‑border terminology.
- Scope limitations: The standard explicitly excludes:
- Commercial contract conditions (collection, weighing, shipping, receiving, claims)
- Technical assay data and physical characteristics (lead/alloy content, analytical values, size, weight)
- Regulatory environmental, health and safety requirements
- Normative references: EN 14057 cites related lead standards (e.g., EN 12659, EN 12548, EN 12588, EN 13086) and IEC vocabulary where relevant.
Applications and who uses it
EN 14057 is a practical reference for professionals involved in lead material supply chains to ensure consistent naming and classification:
- Lead and lead‑alloy producers and smelters
- Scrap collectors, recyclers, and processors
- Battery manufacturers and battery recyclers (lead‑acid battery handling)
- Metal traders, procurement and quality control teams
- Technical writers, standards committees and certification bodies needing standard terminology Using EN 14057 reduces ambiguity in specifications, streamlines communication between suppliers and customers, and supports traceability of scrap categories across European markets.
