Lead-free Wall Shielding - Self-adhesive Panels

$258.00

Self-adhesive shielded wall panels are an excellent alternative to purchase and installation of lead drywall or gypsum for low level shielding applications.  When the shielding requirement is only 1/64 - 1/32", our adhesive lined panels are an economical choice.  Anyone can laminate these to the wall with the peel and stick backing.  They are lead-free and have a fire resistant and impact resistant surface which will provide for a lifetime of use.

Standard shielding thicknesses are 0.8mm Pb (1/32") and 0.5mmPb (>1/64").  Sizes can be customized to fit any area.  The panels are easily installed one next to the other, and will stay permanently adhered to the wall even in the most aggressive environments.

These adhesive shielding panels are most commonly used as an alternative to lead-lined drywall in dental, chiropractic, podiatry, veterinary and similar healthcare practices.  Hospitals and other medical facilities which required 1/16" lead eq. doors or greater (such as PET and CT Scan rooms) normally find that lead drywall is the preferred choice.  However, we can provide these panels with as much as 1/4" lead equivalent.

The amount of shielding required should be determined by a licensed health physicist.

Why choose these self-adhesive panels instead of buying lead-lined drywall?

  1. No construction mess, headaches or downtime.  No need to remove existing drywall.  No taping, mudding, sanding, priming or painting.  These panels can be fastened to any existing wall by almost anyone!
  2. Easy, fast, low/no cost shipping.  Drywall must ship on a pallet using a freight carrier.  This can cost $500-1000, and will require a forklift to unload the truck.  Our adhesive panels can ship by standard UPS ground.  Shipping is included "free" for all domestic orders in the continental US.
  3. NO LEAD.  These panels are lead-free.  Bismuth is used as the primary shielding metal.  Bismuth and lead have very similar shielding effect against radiation.
