LEAD CASTINGS lot production mainly up to 3000 kg / 1 piece, single pieces up to 20000 kg / 1 pce. sand castings, gravity die castings in metal dies.
Pb high purity 99,985% , 99,7% and as alloys e.g. with antimony (hard lead) such as PbSb2, PbSb3, PbSb4, PbSb6, PbSb13 and others
deep T-keels, L-keels, T-Kiele, Lead Bulbs
Steel containers with cast lead as weights up to 20000 kg / 1 piece, Lead Pour and Fill Services, counterweights
Lead transport containers, Lead storage containers, Radiation Shielding, Lead Shielding, Lead Lined Containers,
Lead ingots 35 - 40 kg/pce - high purity
We offer lead pour and fill service for your product to be used as a weight or a counterweight. Lead is the most efficient way to add significant weight to a vessel or or other hollow container. Of course, that container must be able to stand up to the high temperature of molten lead Typically that would be a steel container / Customer Supplied Vessel
lead base assembly for a nuclear cask
Products we typically see for lead pour and fill: Forklift Counterweights Elevator Weights Dredge Equipment Weights Special Castings Nuclear Lead Cask Linings
other Examples : Lead Filled Pile Driver Weights, Lead Filled Palletizer Counterweight
Pour and fill complete for palletizer counterweight Ship your container to us. We are Lead-ers, We’ll fill with lead to your required specification and ship it back. Call us for your pour and fill requirement. request a quote and lead time.
Radiation Containment Vessels - Heavy duty lead containment vessels for nuclear waste. Nuclear waste containment vessel - Nuclear waste vessel being filled with molten lead wrapped with heaters. radiation containment vessel which weighs e.g. 10,000 LBS - Walls are 4 inch thick then. casted using lead fill and pour technique, using high temperature heater wraps to keep the lead liquid until reaching uniform thickness and density. for use by NATO Navy, the US Navy etc. Pure lead, lead liners for cabinets as well as smaller or larger vessels.
We produce precision weights using pour and fill in steel vessels for application such as pile drives and other earth moving equipment.
