Lead Glass Shielding
Optically clear lead glass designed for radiation-shielded viewing windows in X-ray, PET, nuclear medicine, and industrial applications.
Key features and benefits
Available in standard and custom sizes – supports integration into new construction and retrofit projects
Optically clear composition – maintains visual clarity without yellow tint
High light transmittance – allows accurate room observation during procedures
Resistant to discolouration – maintains transparency after radiation exposure
Scratch-resistant surface – supports durability in high-use environments
Incombustible material – does not emit toxic fumes when cut
Optional safety lamination – enhances impact resistance for safety glazing requirements
Professional custom crating – supports secure drop shipments and project logistics
Multiple lead equivalency options available – matches shielding specifications across modalities
Product overview
Ultraray Radiation Protection offers a complete line of lead glass for use in viewing windows, door lites, control booths, mobile barriers, and other shielded assemblies. Our lead glass provides optical clarity while maintaining required radiation shielding performance for medical and industrial applications.
Standard LX-57B X-ray shielding lead glass is available in 1.6 mm, 2.0 mm, and 3.0 mm lead equivalencies. For PET applications requiring protection from higher-energy gamma radiation, Pro-GR lead glass is available with lead equivalencies exceeding those of LX-57B. For nuclear medicine and nuclear power applications, ultra-high lead content block glass is available in thicknesses up to 9 inches.
All lead glass options are engineered to maintain visibility while supporting radiation protection. Where a complete system is required, Ultraray also supplies lead lined window frames in welded or telescopic configurations. Frames are manufactured from 16-gauge steel and professionally lined with sheet lead matching the specified lead equivalency of the glazing. Lead glass should be selected in coordination with the project physicist and overall shielding design.
