Bicron Electronics can supply RoHS compliant parts as requested by customer requirements. Due to the mix of standard and custom designs manufactured for our customers, and the exemption of select industries (examples: Medical and Military) as identified by the European Union, Bicron has not implemented  RoHS for all of our products. An  “EF”  suffix is added to the Bicron part number to confirm that the specific parts are RoHS compliant. (The EF designation stands for Environmentally Friendly).

Bicron has four materials impacted by the RoHS requirement.
They include lead based solder, hexavalent chromium plating, lead in PVC coated lead wire, and lead in the Bicroflex insulation/coating.

Due to the above mentioned mix of custom parts, standard parts and industry exemptions, it is the responsibility of each customer to notify Bicron of specific RoHS compliance requirements.

The expense of any re-qualification, design change, or design verification will be negotiated with the customer on a case by case basis. The contact point at Bicron to register your RoHS requirements is with the Bicron Customer Service Representative.

Compliance is based on the information provided to Bicron by our raw material suppliers. Bicron makes no independent representations or warranties, expressed or implied, and assumes no liability in connection with the use of this information.
