What Is a <\/b>Lead Cave<\/b>?<\/b><\/h2>\n

A lead cave, or lead castle, is a modular radiation shielding structure constructed from interlocking lead bricks. It forms a dense barrier that absorbs and attenuates harmful radiation, protecting operators, instruments, and sensitive materials.<\/span><\/p>\n

At Canada Metal North America, we build each unit to client specifications using certified lead products that meet or exceed ASTM purity standards. Our team can configure products as per the space, exposure level, and purpose of use, whether for permanent installation or mobile protection.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We offer painted bricks or speciality coated bricks for safer handling. We can even build you a stainless steel cover.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
