The results confirm that there is lead at the bottom of the tumbler, which contains a pellet to seal the cup's vacuum insulation layer.
A CT scan of Stanley’s viral Quencher cup has confirmed what the company has been saying all along: There’s only lead at the bottom of the cup. The lead is covered by a stainless steel cover, which Stanley says makes it “inaccessible to customers.” In the end, though, lead exposure might come down to a matter of luck. The team at Lumafield, a hardware manufacturing company that makes CT scanners, ran Stanley’s Quencher tumbler through one of their machines last week.
“ur CT cross-section shows that the lead is entirely shielded, and its user won’t be exposed to lead at all. If the medallion covering the lead solder is pried off, it might become accessible—but in that case, a replacement cup is covered by Stanley’s warranty.” Bruner said. The keyword here is the medallion, or the stainless steel disc covering the lead.
