General description
Lead is the heaviest of materials usually available. Its density of 11.3 g/cm3 makes it the ideal material for use as ballast of boats.
A lead keel would be about twice the weight than the same piece made from cast iron. This ensures greater stability and the use of a more efficient keel, since it has a smaller volume and provides the same performance.
Delivery time
Usual delivery time: 4 weeks
To request an estimate:
