temporary or permanent shields or storage areas are required, offering you the flexibility
in your design and construction choices.
KEY FEATURES
•t
Cast from 99.9% pure virgin high quality lead.
•t
Commonly used for shielding when sheet lead is impractical or not available in sizes or thicknesses
you may require.
•t
Versatile for many applications, including in walls, bunkers, coves, glove-boxes, hot cells, partitions,
nuclear shielding, transportation of radioactive materials or as a ballast weight.
•t
Available as straight or interlocking chevron-type in a wide range of sizes, thicknesses and shapes to
suit your application.
•t
MarShield interlocking chevron-type lead bricks offer maximum protection against x-ray beta and
gamma radiation with a unique interlocking “V” shape tongue and groove configuration that prevents
the leakage of radiation through gaps. The interlocking provides a more stable and sturdier wall system
aiding in the prevention of the wall toppling over.
•t
MarShield straight lead bricks can be cut on site in any direction without the fear of losing the
interlocking capability. A double row stacked behind the first in a staggered pattern can combat the
loss of radiation commonly known to happen through the first row gaps.
•t
Available machined finish.
•t
Custom expert installation services available.
