Subject: [BULK] Re: [TN] Military Exemption from Lead-Free?
Importance: Low
The WEEE Directive specifically excludes equipment connected with EU
Member state security including arms and munitions. It does not exclude
ALL "military" equipment per se however - only products which are specifically
intended for military purposes.
Now... the RoHS Directive contains no such exemption, however, it has been
assumed that the scope of RoHS=scope of WEEE unless otherwise indicated.
So yes, there is no requirement for lead-free in military equipment for the EU.
