[QUOTE=fissioneng;216619]Nothing wrong with lead on a lead stud, actually preferred according to some people.

If we go with that reasoning, you still will have a lead to copper join somewhere. I was referring to lead battery terminals to connect to post type batteries. I have found the lead to be too soft to be able to torque the bolt well and will break apart if torqued too far. Isn't bimetal just a fancy name for tinned copper?
