Interlocking
and Square-edged Lead BlockDescription:
NELCO’s N-Series interlocking lead brick system is ideal for adding
additional shielding to existing therapy vaults or treatment rooms.
Additionally, the lead brick system can be utilized in a freestanding lead
room for shielding a full range of modalities. Its modularity allows easy
installation even in difficult spaces, especially ceilings. Lead brick can
also be used in new construction as a method to reduce wall or ceiling
thickness to achieve space savings.
Bricks are available in 1", 1.5", and 2" thicknesses with standard 4” x
12” height and length. Each brick features a tongue and groove design that
maximizes shielding integrity. All lead brick is manufactured by Nelco and
inventoried at our facilities convenient to key U. S. water ports to help
reduce shipping costs. Bricks are manufactured under the strictest NELCO
quality control and regulatory compliance guidelines.
