Are you referring to "lead solder" as in copper pipe connections (which should actually use lead-free solder), or do you actually mean to say "lead-and-oakum joint"?

Good morning Steve,

I think you may be asking about "Cold Solder" http://www.justforcopper.com/
This is a epoxy that bonds copper fittings without lead solder.
Regards, Tom
