Since this is made of brass, does it say if it contains lead?

Doesn't state it but highly unlikely given it is solid brass. Just email them. I'm sure you will get a quick answer.Their service guy is Joshua Jantz <joshua@christfocus.com>

Here is what I found: Virtually all brass has lead in it. Brass is composed of copper and zinc, and they throw some lead in it for machinability. The lead percentage varies, but is usually around 2%. It can be as high as 7%. The EPA and the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) states that brass fittings used for human water consumption have to contain less than 8% to be safe and to be considered "lead-free." During the machining process, the lead acts as a lubricant. The end result is that a micro-thin layer of lead gets smeared over the machined surface. This amount should not cause concern, but it is possible to remove it if desired. Simply mix white distilled vinegar (5% acetic acid) with 3% hydrogen peroxide. You want it mixed in a 2-to-1 volume ratio. Immerse and swish the brass you are cleaning in this solution for approximately 10 minutes. It should change to a buttery yellow/gold color when it has been totally cleaned. If it starts to have a green/bluish color, it's been in too long, and you need to rinse and start over with fresh solution. You'll want to wear gloves or use tongs because the solution can irritate your skin. Hope this helps clarify things for you? Cheers. Alf

There no information about lead content on the package. Most faucet parts are made of brass and I believe would be very safe.

No idea if it contains lead...email seller. Package says it's brass...no mention of lead. It works GREAT!

Since it's claimed to be all brass, and brass is made of copper and zink, it should be lead-free.

I apologize, I can't answer that question for you. I believe you would need to ask a plumber. It is very durable, solid brass with low lead content.

All brass has lead in it. The exposure area is minimal though, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

I don't know. Possibly. I don't think the package says lead free. Ask the manufacturer.

No,,, it has no lead... It's a all natural bug killer just make sure you get the "food Grade" and don't use it directly on your pets... There's a place somewhere on line that will tell you all about how to use it... Wonderful stuff it is... If you use it in your carpet don't walk on it before you vacuum it up,,, need to leave it at least 4 hours,,, also make sure it's dry outside when you dust your yard... Good luck......

I don't know whether it is exactly lead-free. You would need a lab test for this answer if you don't trust the seller.

I would say yes. The package does not state it has lead. It is not legal to sell products intended for food to have lead in it.

Yes. Our spigot is lead FREE. Lead is NOT an ingredient for stainless steel, unlike brass.

I was not aware that this product may contain lead. I will have to check the potential of hazard.

Great question. I wasn't aware that it may contain lead. I'll be getting rid of it if that's true.

Thank you for asking. It does not have lead as far as I know. It is very pretty. I have a cat and it doesn't seem to bother her.

Hi. Brass is a lead alloy and pipes are supposed to be lead free. However this is only 1 inch of brass. If you have elevated levels of lead I would stay away from this. You try it and get a water sample. I like the brass ones because they are built better and made to last. Plastic ones crack.

It appears to be all brass. If there is any lead hidden in the product, it's not going to hurt the plants or the grass and I don't intend to drink from the hose nozzle. I'm happy with the product. I also have no idea how one would determine if there was anything but brass without having it melted down.

Definitely YES! Unless the pellet can specifically says 'Lead Free Pellets' or something to that effect, assume otherwise because it's a lead pellet. Another way to figure out about lead pellets is by weight itself for example: the weight of Beeman's latest lead free pellet is about 4 grains; you won't find any lead pellets with weights less than 7 or 8 grains AFAIK, and I've been shooting pellet rifles and pistols for more than 50 years. - Wavey Davey -- 7/26/2014

I think it best to contact the manufacturer and ask the question about lead. I am assuming that because the hose itself has no lead and the claim is that it is lead free, that the brass has no lead.
