for noise reduction material, radiation shielding and x-ray shielding
Pure lead and antimony products are available in any size – standard sizes are shown below.
Custom sizes and alloys can be specially fabricated ranging from 1/64"-3" thick x 1/8"-96" wide x lengths up to 25', depending on your sound reduction material, radiation sheeting or x-ray plate needs. Materials for neutron shielding and nuclear shielding are available.
Lead Foil
We provide any size to the tenth of a thousand (.0000") from .0020" to .0310" thick. Widths 1/8" wide and up to lengths up to 200' long. Our foils are rolled on heavy duty fiber cores. End caps can be provided to protect against shipping damage. This allows a perfect roll on your dock.
Lead Foil value added - We will laminate your foil with PSA (pressure sensitive adhesive), PSA will release paper, vinyl or any other product specified. We can stamp, laminate or assemble any application.
