Lead & Tungsten Container with Needle Access to 50cc Vial

This Lead Shielded Container with Tungsten Cover was designed to hold radioactive isotope in vials up to 50cc.  In the center of the tungsten cover is a needle access channel to the vial. A Stainless Steel screw knob with a silicone O-ring seal and a tungsten rod plugs the needle access channel when not in use. When the tungsten cover is inserted into the container an O-ring seals the cover. The lead container has a foldable handle to make it easier to carry or take in and out of a Cart.

The container is made of 1 1/8” (2.9cm) thick lead with a drop in 1" (2.54cm) thick tungsten cover that is secured using two spring plungers that go into the tungsten cover.

 The vial cavity of the container includes a 1/8” (0.3cm) thick foam on the bottom to protect the vial.
