VLW – Blend of Antimony and Lead

Overview

VLW – Blend of Antimony and Lead Our composite shielding is a mixture of lead and Antimony, a lighter weight metal. Our lead-based composite blend is a proprietary mixture that attenuates radiation at the same levels as lead, but is lighter (up to 20%) compared to a 100% lead product. Sheets are available with the same lead equivalency protection levels.

• All sheets are available in a variety of sizes, shapes and thicknesses depending on the application. Sheets can be layered to achieve the desired thickness required to meet the lead equivalency and safety standards.
• There radiation protection guidelines promote three standard levels of lead equivalency protection for radiation shielding apparel: 0.25mm, 0.35mm and 0.5mm.
