What REACH and RoHS Mean for Your Parts

REACH and RoHS are two widely recognized compliance standards that restrict hazardous substances in materials and coatings used in manufactured parts. REACH focuses on controlling chemicals throughout the supply chain, while RoHS limits specific substances commonly found in electronics, such as lead, cadmium, and hexavalent chromium.

Most common metals and plastics, such as aluminum, stainless steel, carbon steel, brass, titanium, PEEK, Delrin, and more, are available in REACH- and RoHS-compliant forms. PartsBadger verifies material certifications and works with finishing partners who offer compliant coatings to meet your regulatory needs.

Common Materials That Can Be REACH & RoHS Compliant

Plastics & Polymers
  • ABS
  • Acrylic (PMMA)
  • Delrin / Acetal (POM)
  • Nylon (PA6, PA66)
  • Polycarbonate (PC)
  • PEEK
  • PET & PETG
  • Polyethylene (HDPE, LDPE)
  • Polypropylene (PP)
  • PTFE (Teflon)
  • PVC — requires certification due to possible additives
Metals
  • Aluminum Alloys (6061, 7075, 2024, 5083, 6063, etc.)
  • Stainless Steels (303, 304, 316, 17-4PH, 410, 420, etc.)
  • Carbon & Alloy Steels (1018, 4140, A36, etc.)
  • Copper (C110, C101, etc.)
  • Titanium (Grade 2, Grade 5, etc.)
  • Magnesium Alloys
  • Nickel Alloys
  • Brass (C360, C464, etc.) —
  • RoHS-compliant low-lead options are available (Inconel, Monel, Hastelloy—RoHS-compliant when controlled for nickel compounds)
Finishes & Coatings Available in REACH/RoHS-Compliant Options
  • Anodizing
  • Powder coating
  • Electroless nickel (EN)
  • Zinc plating (RoHS-compliant trivalent chromate options only)
  • Clear chromate conversion (RoHS-compliant options)
  • Black oxide
  • Passivation
  • Polishing & tumbling
Elastomers
  • Silicone
  • EPDM
  • Neoprene
  • Nitrile Rubber (NBR)
  • Viton (FKM) — verify fluorinated compound limits

Materials That Commonly Require Extra Verification

These are still available in compliant forumations, they just require confirmation.

Brass or bronze with higher lead content

Chromate coatings (hexavalent chromium is not RoHS compliant)

Soldiers or adhesives with restricted chemicals

PVC materials with certain additives
