Lead plate from NELCO is produced on a rolling mill and then cut to size for use in a broad range of medical applications. The high density and high atomic number of lead plate makes it a highly effective construction material in shielding vaults and areas in medical facilities from gamma rays and x-ray radiation. Lead plate can be used wherever protective radiation shielding is needed, in walls, window frames, and doors. We also design the shape and size of every mold to minimize waste and avoid increased manufacturing costs. NELCO lead plate conforms to various ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) specifications, it resists corrosion as well as most chemicals, and it is manufactured to consistent standards in a variety of thicknesses and sizes.
