Lead-Free Pewter Radiation Shielding

At Oster Pewter we make lead-free pewter sheet metal for the radiation shielding industry. Lead-free pewter refers to a variety of alloys made from tin, bismuth, antimony, and copper.

Why Pewter?

• Easy to Work With - Ideal for lining shipping containers, glove boxes, imaging devices, or custom enclosures.
• Shields Better than Steel - Similar masses of tin shield Iodine-125 radiation about 3X better than a similar weight of stainless steel
• 100% recyclable - We buy back your scrap based on the daily market value
• Lead-Free - Our lead-free pewter is below 100 ppm lead concentration

All sheet metal is made to order to the desired length, width, and thickness. Samples are available on request. More information about our capabilities is available on our website at: Pewter Technical Data.
