About Tungsten Heavy Alloy
Tungsten Heavy Alloy
MarShield Radiation Shielding are experts in the in the customization of tungsten heavy alloy for the Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Medicine / Radioisotope, diagnostic imaging and non-destructive testing industries.
Tungsten Heavy Alloy has a density of up to 18.89 g/cm3 vs. lead at 11.34 g/cm3. It’s ease of mechanical processing / machining, high ductility and strength makes it a viable option for many applications where lead is not feasible whether it be for size reduction, maximizing weight in large or small cavities or for radiation shielding. Tungsten Alloy is strong and highly customizable into precision components.
MarShield’s T-Flex® products maximize shielding effectiveness while keeping the weight to a minimum. Ideal for applications that require custom moldable shapes along with flexibility, such as small bore pipe, elbows and valves. T-Flex® products are non-toxic and available as blankets, ribbon wrap, pipe shields, floor tiles, magnetic tiles, and molded shapes.
MarShield Tungsten Syringe Shields are all designed to reduce hand exposure in clinicians preparing and administering radiopharmaceuticals. Our tungsten shields are lightweight, sleek in design and easy to use. We offer over 20 different shield types and sizes including Tungsten Vial Transport Containers.
