Lead Brick

Lead Bricks are used for heavy shielding where Sheet Lead is impractical. Lead Bricks are available in two styles, square and interlocking and come in many different sizes. The unique design of the interlocking brick permits butting surfaces to mate in such a way as to prevent any radiation leakage. Typical sizes of interlocking bricks are 8 or 12 inches long and 1 to 2-1/2 inches thick. The standard size of square brick (non-interlocking) is usually 2" x 4" x 8".  However, both types can be manufactured in a wide range of sizes to meet any requirement. Lead Foil and Vinyl are ideal for wrapping or covering experimental equipment or controlling x-rays as well as protecting people from unwanted exposure.
