For shopify merchants
Small lead tackle kept out of the states that ban it.
Tinweight blocks small lead sinkers and jigs from orders shipping to Maine, New Hampshire, New York and Vermont, by the weight and length limits each state sets. Lead tackle with no weight on file is treated as blocked there. Shoppers are offered the lead-free swap you set, such as tin, tungsten, steel or bismuth, in one press. Massachusetts buyers see a notice instead of a block. The rules come from a 2020 report, so you are asked to check each state's current law. Not legal advice.
