Neutron Putty
Neutron putty is used for filling voids in neutron shielding applications. Neutron putty has excellent malleable and pliable properties for molding around pipes or filling gaps and voids for shielding certain aspects of thermal or fast neutrons. It contains 10% boron and high hydrogen content to efficiently attenuate thermal neutrons or fast neutrons.
Lead Foil Tape
Lead Foil Tape is designed for sealing seams and joints between shielding panels in low energy x-ray applications, available in widths of 1/4", 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1.5" and 2" are available as “good in stock.”
Lead Lined Foam
1/64" or 1/32" sheet lead bonded to 1/2" open cell foam backing for flexible soundproofing and shielding applications.
Lead Wool
Lead Wool is Pliable and moldable x-ray shielding and easy to pack and form into or around voids, joints or gaps in lead brick installations or into concrete walls.
Available good in stock in 5 pound bags.
"Lead-Free" Radiation Shielding Vinyl Sheets
For flexible low energy shielding applications with the advantages of easy to clean, durable, lead-free composition of very flexible and versatile sheets for curtains or wrapping unusual shapes or areas and covering access points to reduce overall radiation exposure levels of various x-ray gamma sources.
1/16" (1.6mm) thick "lead-free" flexible radiation shielding vinyl providing 1/64"(0.5mm) lead shielding equivalency for protection in reducing x-ray gamma radiation.
Standard Full Sheet Size: 48”x 96” (Cut sizes available)
1/8" (3.2mm) thick "lead free" flexible radiation shielding vinyl providing 5/128"(1.0mm) lead shielding equivalency for protection in reducing x-ray gamma radiation.
Standard Full Sheet Size: 48” x 96” ( Cut sizes available)
Gamma Putty
Gamma Putty / Clay is used for filling voids in high energy gamma shielding applications and has excellent malleable and pliable properties for molding around pipes or filling gaps and voids for gamma radiation shielding. This Gamma Putty is completely Lead-Free and has a 90% bismuth and high-density composition for attenuating x-ray / gamma radiation
LEAD PUTTY / SHIELDING CLAY IS ONLY FOR UTILIZATION IN FILLING CONCRETE JOINTS OR VOIDS IN VERY HIGH ENERGY RADIATION APPLICATIONS SUCH AS NUCLEAR, ISOTOPIC, AND RADIATION ONCOLOGY CANCER THERAPY (Such as Linear Accelerator and Hot Cell concrete vault walls)
*For regular low and medium energy radiation in medical diagnostic x-ray and gamma source imaging, simply use equal pure (99.9%) lead sheet or plate shielding of the same thickness value (or greater) as the penetration occurs in , with proper overlaps multipliers of 2x the depth around the perimeter or more, or at least no less than 2" tight.
Pure Sheet Lead radiation Shielding is commonly utilized in the walls and partitions of Cath Labs, C.T. Scanners (Computer Tomography) , X-Ray, Radiology, Fluoroscopic, Angiography, Mammography or Chiropractic and Dental X-Ray Rooms.
