It is affixed to surfaces or walls ensuring a continuous layer of sheet lead under the drywall to a specified height. It is used in new construction or shielding upgrades/renovations for P.E.T and other types of diagnostic imaging roomsLead sheet is 99.9% pure, or better, of un-pierced virgin lead, free of dross, oxide inclusions, scale, laminations, blisters and cracks and is factory laminated to drywallDrywall is available in 1/2" to 5/8" thickness with a lead thickness of 1/32" to 1/8" maximum thickness. If thickness over 1/8" is required, please use leaded plywoodStandard panels are available in 48" widths with 96" or 120" lengthsCan be customized to smaller widths and lengths to suit most applicationsLeaded drywall can have lead laminated to the full drywall length or partial lengthMeets or exceeds Federal Specifications QQ-L-201F, Grade C, ASTM B-749-03 Standard Specification for lead and lead alloy strip, sheet, and plate products.

Installation Installation
The installer will need to take into account the loss of shielding in all penetrations, seams and cut outs in the leaded drywall. Shielding will need to be added to all receptacle switches, fastener penetrations and seams created when applying the leaded drywall. In the majority of installation jobs the leaded drywall panels can be mounted directly to the metal or wood studs with standard drywall screws. These screws are then covered with a small diameter lead tab. These tabs are available in various thicknesses up to 1/8" thick. Each fastener will be covered with a lead disc, equal in thickness to the lead that is laminated to the drywall to eliminate the possibility of radiation leakage at the point of fastening. Ensure the heads of the drywall screws are dimpled into drywall deep enough to allow the installer sufficient depth to glue the lead tabs over all screw heads with a quick-drying-time construction adhesive.After gluing all screw heads with lead tabs, the installer can apply drywall compound and feather out all lead tabs with compound for a smooth drywall finish. Drywall can be taped, floated and finished as required. Lead drywall panels may be used in the ceiling but may require additional support or fasteners to hold the panels to the ceiling.Lead Drywall can have lead laminated to the full drywall length or partial length - please specify.
