Lead Lined Plywood Panels 2mmpb 12mm Thick Hospital X Ray Room Wall Lining

Lead lined plywood panels combine a two millimetre lead equivalence sheet with a twelve millimetre plywood substrate in a single factory bonded panel. Instead of fixing loose lead on site, then strapping it, then building a stud frame over it, the installer simply screws the finished panel to the wall and finishes the joint. For a hospital X ray room this cuts the shielding package down to one trade, one delivery and one inspection, which is usually the difference between finishing a room in three days and finishing it in a week.

The lead sheet is bonded with a solvent free polyurethane adhesive under controlled press pressure. Bond strength is tested by peel test on every production shift and must reach four newtons per millimetre before the batch is released. Because the lead is fully supported by the plywood, it cannot sag, dent or pull away at the fixings, which is the most common failure mode of site installed loose lead. Panel faces are sanded to 120 grit so that paint, vinyl or high pressure laminate can be applied directly, and the panel edges can be supplied with the lead wrapped around for a continuous shield at the joints.

• Factory Bonded Assembly: Lead and plywood are pressed together under controlled pressure with solvent free adhesive, so the shielding layer cannot sag or delaminate after installation.
• Two Millimetre Lead Equivalent: The 2.0 mmpb rating at 100 kV suits general radiography, dental and CR rooms, and higher equivalence up to 4 mmpb is available on the same substrate.
• Single Trade Installation: Panels are screwed or adhesively fixed straight to masonry or studwork, removing the separate lead lining, strapping and board finishing operations on site.
• Paint Ready Surface: Faces are sanded to 120 grit and dust extracted, so decorative paint, vinyl or laminate bonds without further preparation.
• Peel Tested Bond: Every production shift is sampled by peel test and must exceed 4 N/mm before release, giving a documented bond value for the project file.
• Joint Continuity Options: Edges can be supplied square for overlap fixing or with the lead wrapped around the edge for a continuous shield across panel joints.

Lead lined plywood is used for wall and ceiling lining in radiology, dental, mammography, CR and DR rooms, and for smaller veterinary suites where a fast clean installation matters. It is also common in mobile X ray cabins and container based imaging units, where the panel doubles as the structural surface of the wall.

Because the panel carries its own substrate, it can be used as a finished partition in retrofit work where the existing wall cannot take a separate stud frame. Overlap joints of twenty millimetres give a continuous shield without the need for separate lead strip at every seam.

Panels are stacked face to face on export pallets with corner protection, edge boards and a full polyethylene wrap. Each pack carries a label showing the lead equivalence, batch number and panel count, and a bond test record accompanies the delivery documents.

Manufacturing follows GB/T 19001-2016 and the plant holds CE certification for radiation protection products since 2016. Lead thickness is checked by ultrasonic gauge on every panel, bond strength by peel test each shift, and finished panel dimensions are verified before packing. Damaged panels are replaced free of charge within twelve months of delivery.
