Sheet Lead for Radiation Protection
Sheet Lead for Radiation Protection
Radiation safety is a critical requirement in medical, nuclear, and industrial environments. One of the most trusted and widely used materials for this purpose is sheet lead, known for its exceptional shielding performance and reliability.
Why Sheet Lead is Effective
Lead’s high density makes it extremely effective at attenuating gamma rays and X-rays. Even in relatively thin layers, sheet lead can significantly reduce radiation exposure, making it ideal for environments where space is limited but safety cannot be compromised.
Common Applications
Sheet lead is widely used in:
X-ray and CT scan rooms
Nuclear medicine and radiochemistry laboratories
Industrial radiography and NDT facilities
Radiation doors, walls, partitions, and cabinets
Its flexibility allows it to be easily cut, shaped, and layered to suit a wide range of shielding designs.
