Nuclear Lead - Lead Storage Containers
All types of industries use lead storage containers to safely store radioactive materials. Using a tungsten syringe shield, the user draws doses from a vial into a syringe when preparing radiopharmaceuticals. After this process, they may store the radioisotope vial in a lead storage container or a tungsten vial shield. These vial shields can have a lead glass viewing window. This improves the visibility of the contents. We can also add one or multiple padlocks to the lead storage containers to secure the radioactive material. They are operated with standard padlock keys.
Nuclear Lead Co. Inc. designs and manufactures lead shipping containers to safely and efficiently transport radioactive materials. One of the most popular uses of these containers is designed for shipping of syringes with F-18 radiopharmaceuticals. With years of experience, we understand the need for multiple classes of containers for classification as shipping containers. We use these classifications to describe what the lead shipping containers are specifically designed for.
There are many applications that can be used for lead shielded containers. They include:
- Radioactive Material Transportation
- Radioactive Material Storage
- PET Radionuclide Storage (Fluor-18)
- Vial Pigs for PET and Other Radionuclides
- Radiopharmaceuticals Preparation
