Lead is an important material because of its property to radiate the
harmful radiation, thus acting as a shield in place of Nuclear works
and X-ray regions.
Lead Bricks are basically the rectangular
bricks with inter-locking capability. These are mainly used for the
purpose of making shielding Walls in case of large area or process,
where chances of radiation are very much. Lead Bricks are
a
convenient solution to temporary or permanent shielding/storage
situations. Easy to stack, un-stack and relocate, Lead Bricks
provide maximum protection wherever needed. Produced from the
highest quality Lead, each brick is standard hardness with a flat,
smooth surface, allowing a perfectly flush fit, even at sharp right
angles.
They give protection against radioactive radiation in
laboratories and working environment (wall assembling). Interlocking
Lead Bricks make it easy to erect, modify and relocate protective
walls and caves of any size.
Gravita India offers Straight type
Lead Bricks for radiation shielding where interlocking bricks will
not suit your application. They can be cut on site in any direction
without the fear of loosing 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.
Gravita
India Lead Brick shielding provides the best choice for construction
where temporary, permanent shields or storage areas are required,
offering you the flexibility in your design and construction
choices. Lead Bricks are ideal for adding additional shielding to
existing rooms and can be used in new construction as a method to
reduce wall or ceiling thickness to achieve space savings. Cast from
99.94% pure virgin high quality Lead as a standard or when more
hardness in the bricks is required antimony is added. Our bricks are
relatively smooth, clean and have a non-porous surface. Lead bricks
can be used for walls, coves, glove-boxes, hot cells or partitions,
the transportation of radioactive materials, and nuclear shielding
or simply as ballast weight. Bricks are available in a wide range of
sizes, thicknesses and shapes to suit your application. They are
commonly used for shielding when sheet Lead is impractical or not
available in sizes or thicknesses you may require. Straight or
interlocking styles are available from our stock.
