PbX Labs builds lead and tungsten shielding for hot laboratories, PET/CT suites and radiopharmacies — from a 66 gram syringe shield to a 350 kg hydraulic waste bin.
Everything in the catalogue comes down to how much lead sits between the source and the person. Pick the band that matches your work and the products follow.
Most departments buy across several of these at once. If you are fitting out a new hot lab, send us the room layout and the isotopes and we will put the list together.
Dispensing, elution and decay storage, from the 3 mm bin at the bench to the 60 mm container in the store.
511 keV annihilation photons need materially more lead than technetium work. These are the 45 to 70 mm products.
Syringe and vial shielding sized for technetium-99m and iodine work, light enough to use all day.
Enclosed, ventilated working volumes for synthesis, QC and R&D.
Six of the eighteen. Open the specifications on any card for dimensions, weights and finishes.
3 or 6 mm lead
Carries a filled syringe between the dispensing bench and the patient. The wide base lets a technologist set it down one-handed without it tipping.
| Syringe capacity | 2 ml to 10 ml |
|---|---|
| Shielding thickness | 3 mm for SPECT, 6 mm for PET |
| Finishing material | Stainless steel cover |
| Outer dimensions | 40 × 150 mm |
| Inner dimensions | 20 × 140 mm |
| Weight | Approx. 1.8 kg |
25 mm lead
The standard pig for storing and shipping a radioisotope vial. Epoxy coated outside, and available in other lead thicknesses on request.
| Shielding thickness | 25 mm lead |
|---|---|
| Finishing material | Epoxy coating |
| Standard colour | White |
| Outer dimensions | 120 × 94 mm |
| Inner dimensions | 70 × 44 mm |
| Weight | Approx. 7.2 kg |
35 to 40 mm lead
Lead on all six sides for holding radioactive waste generated in the hot lab while it decays. The hydraulic mechanism carries the lid through a full 90 degrees and holds it there.
| Shielding thickness | 35 / 40 mm |
|---|---|
| Lid opening | 90 degrees, hydraulic |
| Finishing material | Mirror finish stainless steel |
| Inside dimensions | 300 × 300 × 300 mm (w × d × h) |
| Weight | 350 kg |
| Mobility | Castor mounted |
5 mm lead
An enclosed working volume with an extractable L block inside it, so dispensing happens behind two barriers instead of one. The 15 mm lead glass window runs the width of the opening.
| Finishing material | Stainless steel |
|---|---|
| Shielding material | Lead |
| Shielding thickness | 5 mm |
| Viewing window | 200 × 240 × 15 mm lead glass, 4.8 g/cm³ |
| Outside dimensions | 600 × 420 × 480 mm (w × d × h) |
| Inside dimensions | 574 × 394 × 407 mm (w × d × h) |
| Weight | 90 kg |
50 mm lead
Storage and containment for the SPECT and PET sources kept on site. The door swings clear of the aperture so a pig can be lifted straight in and out.
| Finishing material | Epoxy coated lead |
|---|---|
| Shielding material | Lead |
| Shielding thickness | 50 mm |
| Outside dimensions | 235 × 235 × 300 mm (w × d × h) |
| Inside dimensions | 125 × 125 × 200 mm (w × d × h) |
70 mm lead
A 70 mm container on a cart for moving high-energy sources across a department. The handlebar and front wheel both swivel, and lifting eyes let a hoist take the container off the deck.
| Shielding thickness | 70 mm |
|---|---|
| Outside dimensions | 600 × 270 × 600 mm |
| Inside dimensions, lead container | 60 × 127 mm (d × h) |
| Weight | 130 kg |
| Handling | Swivel handlebar, swivel front wheel, lifting eyes |
A fully enclosed, ventilated cell for handling and preparing radioactive materials, built around the synthesis work a radiopharmacy actually runs.
We will come back with the shielding thickness, the product, and a price.
