What is the danger

Nickel is a strong sensitiser and can cause allergic reactions if present in articles that come into direct and prolonged contact with the skin. The silver-coloured cylinder-shaped parts have an excessive concentration of lead (measured value 10 % by weight). Lead is harmful to human health, accumulates in the body, can cause developmental neurotoxicity and may also affect breast-fed or unborn children.
