This is an uncoated Stainless Steel Corkcicle brand water bottle.
This product is advertised as lead-free. (See related post here.)
The bottle is primarily made of stainless steel. All components that touch the contents are lead free.
The center sealing dot (on the bottom of the outside of the bottle), the element that seals it so it is an insulated bottle, is made of lead and is fully exposed/has no protective coating. (Scroll down to see pics so you can see exactly what I mean.)
When tested with an XRF instrument this sealing dot tested positive for lead in the range of 597,000 ppm Lead (+/- 4,000 ppm.) As a result, in spite of their advertising claims, this bottle is not lead-free.
Please read this post for context.

So basically we can’t rely on anyone to tell the truth or an agency to enforce it properly to protect our kids. Tamara, you are a true hero!! Keeping us safe with a reality check about everything!!! I am just amazed at how much garbage is out there. Thanks Tamara for being a real trooper.
Thank you Sarah! I really appreciate your comment. Some days are hard to get through and supportive comments really make a difference! [So I know I am on the right path with my work!]

How about their hybrid version with glass insert? https://corkcicle.com/products/hybrid-canteen
The Glass contacted with water doesn’t in contact with the stainless steel
Thanks!
