The hazard
The solders in the product have an excessive concentration of lead (measured value up to 61.4% by weight).

SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bio-accumulate in wildlife and humans, posing a risk to human health and the environment. Prolonged exposure to them through the skin may cause cancer. DBP and DEHP pose a risk to human health and the environment.
