• T-Flex® Lead Alternative Shielding

    T-Flex® tungsten shielding products are a great solution for all your shielding needs. Tungsten, Bismuth and Iron-based attenuating materials are available. T-Flex® can be molded into any shape, allowing the application of localized shielding directly at the source. Isolated hot spots can be shielded using T-Flex®, eliminating the need to shield larger areas surrounding the hot spot. T-Flex® can be engineered to meet weight, size, and radiation attenuation specifications. T-Flex® products have saved power plants time and money during maintenance shutdowns. All T-Flex® products are non-toxic and free of hazardous materials. T-Flex® shielding materials allow us the ability to create light weight, easy-to-use, customizable products. Customer feedback indicates that T-Flex® is a user friendly and effective means of reducing radiation fields. The weights and sizes available make T-Flex® easy to handle, with improved ergonomics, reducing the prospect of lifting and handling injuries. T-Flex® can provide attenuation properties similar to lead products, but at half the weight.

  • T-Flex Flexibility

    • More effectively position mass in path of radiation source to achieve lowest weight per unit of shielding.
    • Install in seconds by using the “slip-over-the component” feature, integral fasteners and/or magnets.
    • Advance ALARA program goals by adding these highly effective shielding materials to shielding tool box.
    • Lead alternative – No mixed waste
    • Ideal for small bore piping
    • High heat resistance
    • Mold to any shape
    • Easily cut for in field adjustments
    • Efficient placement of shielding closest to source
    • Rated for continuous use up to 350°F/176°C

T-Flex® products maximize shielding effectiveness while keeping weight to a minimum. T-Flex® is ideal for applications that require custom mouldable shapes along with flexibility; such as small-bore pipes, elbows and valves. T-Flex® products are available as blankets, ribbon wrap, pipe shields, floor tiles, magnetic tiles, and molded shapes – flexible or rigid. Fasteners and securing methods are also available, including magnets, grommets and locking devices. T-Flex® Tungsten, Bismuth, and Iron products are rated for continuous use up to 350° F/176° C.
