Hello,
We are currently comparing different lead alloys suitable for submarine cables.
Is there any recommendations regarding the best lead alloys to be used for these submarine applications?
What would you recommend between lead alloy E (PKS21S) and lead alloy Cu/Te (PKS041S)? Are they strictly equivalent? Are others better than these ones?

Thank you for your help and all the best for the New Year!
Kind regards,

Foudretta
