Abstract

PURPOSE: To prevent the generation of a high resistance material on the surface of a terminal by covering the surface of a terminal main body made of a lead- antimony base alloy or lead-calcium-tin base alloy with a lead-tin alloy containing 5wt.% or more tin. CONSTITUTION: A terminal 2 has a covering layer 2b made of a lead-tin alloy containing 5wt.% of more tin formed on the surface of a terminal main body 2a made of lead-antimony base alloy. An electrode pole 3 melt-connected to the terminal 2 is made of a lead-antimony base alloy or a lead-calcium base alloy. A bushing 2c is formed in the lower part of the terminal 2. The bushing, 2c is embedded in a cover 4 of a lead-acid battery, and the covering layer 2b is formed on the surface exposed from the cover 4 of the terminal 2. Before the terminal 2 is fixed to the cover 4, the lead-tin alloy is electroplated on the terminal main body 2a or the terminal main body 2a is immersed in a molten lead-tin alloy. By covering with the lead-tin alloy containing 5 wt% or more tin, lead hydroxide or basic lead carbonate is not generated even if severe heat cycle test is repeated.
