Product overview
Our lead coils and lead sheets are ultra-high-density shielding materials, precision-rolled from high-purity electrolytic lead with a purity of 99.99% or higher. Featuring an atomic number of 82 and a superior density of 11.34g/cm³, these products deliver exceptional radiation shielding performance, establishing them as the industry’s gold standard for blocking high-energy X-rays, gamma rays and neutron radiation.
Engineered for rigorous application environments, they are ideally suited for nuclear industry, medical radiotherapy and other critical scenarios that demand stringent standards in compact space utilization and high-grade radiation protection.
Core product features
Ultimate protection performance
Full spectrum coverage: The shielding rate of 10keV-10MeV rays (including 6-15MV high-energy γ rays for medical linear accelerators) is >99%, and 1mm thickness is equivalent to 1mmPb lead.
Neutron protection extension: Neutron radiation can be efficiently slowed down through the composite cadmium layer (key application in nuclear reactors).
Morphological adaptation advantages
Lead plate (rigidity): high flatness (±0.1mm), suitable for planar structures such as walls and protective doors, and thickness 1-50mm can be customized.
Lead coil (flexible): bendable and winding (minimum curvature radius ≥ 5 times thickness), specially used for pipes, equipment wrapping and curved buildings (such as curved CT rooms), conventional thickness 0.5-5mm.
Hundred-year durability
Acid and alkali corrosion resistance (epoxy resin can be plated on the surface), stable performance at -50℃~150℃, service life > 50 years.
100% recycling and reuse, long-term cost is lower than composite materials.
Core application scenarios
Medical field
Rigid lead plate: radiotherapy room wall (2-3mm), CT machine protective fence (sealed with lead tape at seams).
Flexible lead coil: C-arm wrapping of angiography machine, mobile lead screen skeleton cladding (1.5mm coil).
Nuclear industry field
Lead lining of nuclear waste container (50mm composite plate), reactor neutron moderator (lead-cadmium composite plate).
Hot chamber observation window (step-jointed lead glass + lead plate), spent fuel transport channel (lead coil wrapped weld).
Industrial and civil
Industrial flaw detection room shield (3-10mm lead plate), radon-proof basement wall (0.5-1mm lead coil attached).
Data center electromagnetic shielding layer (ceiling lead plate ceiling), scientific research laboratory beam line protection (99.995% high purity lead).
