Cutouts & Penetrations




Radiation Shielding

When installing lead lined drywall (lead lined sheetrock, lead lined gypsum), all cut outs, seams and penetrations will require sheet lead or lead plate to ensure continuous shielding throughout the room. Proper installation of additional lead wherever penetrations are created will eliminate potential leaks and ensure total protection.

Additional sheet lead can be supplied to easily allow for the proper shielding of penetrations such as receptacles, light switches, ducts and telephone/data cables.


Radiation Protection Products also has lead bricks and lead angles to help you set up your radiation barriers. Contact Radiation Products or request a quote to learn more about their industrial lead products.
