sound proofing material. Lead sheets provide effect noise absorption, sound & acoustical barriers & enclosures used for boats, office equipment, off-highway vehicles, engine rooms, generators & compressor housings.
Lead has been used for many years as a sound barrier, in industries throughout the world. Properties such as high density, relatively high internal damping and low bending stiffness make lead a popular alternative to traditional materials such as plywood, plasterboard, glass and steel.
Lead also has a much higher coincidence level than these traditional materials, which consequently creates a more effective barrier to the transmission of airborne sound, than most generally used sheet materials within the acoustics industry. When combined, these characteristics make lead the ideal choice for acoustic use.
The density of sheet lead makes it ideal for sound attenuation applications.
