Product details
Lead brick shielding (V50 bricks) provide the best choice where a temporary or permanent shield is required to be constructed without the need for any separate support structure. These bricks nest together to eliminate shine paths, and offer a modular solution where you can design and alter the layout on site, giving you flexibility in your shielding design.
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. They are commonly used for shielding, when sheet lead or lead chevron is impractical or not available in sizes or thicknesses you may require.
As standard we produce bricks at 50mm thick. Higher thicknesses can be achieved with multiple layers which are designed to lock into the surrounding lead bricks. The unique design of the bricks enables them to be layered to achieve the thickness of shielding required whilst maintaining a stable structure.
Our high quality cold forged bricks weigh between 2.8 kg and 17 kg dependent upon their size and function. This relatively light weight makes on site fabrication simple and safe.
