About Lead Rod

The Lead Rod is acts as a drive mechanism that provide precise functioning. It is known as a metal rod that is wrapped with threads welded on rolled out. Thus, it is also used for frame construction and act as lead screw for Z axis. Our provided leads rod is known for its excellent tensile strength and durability. Manufacturing of Lead Rod is completed using best quality materials, advanced machine and avant grade techniques in accordance to set quality norms. Any shape or size can be made to the customers requirement.

Versatile Applications Across Industries

Lead rods find utility in a broad spectrum of sectors. Their robust radiation shielding capabilities make them indispensable in medical and nuclear facilities, while their density and flexibility support industrial and construction uses. Easily machinable and customizable in length, diameter, and thickness, these rods adapt seamlessly to project requirements.

Superior Quality & Customization

Produced to rigorous standards using either extrusion or casting, each lead rod guarantees consistent quality. Clients can specify dimensions, purity, and even packaging, with options including wooden boxes for extra protection. Excellent corrosion resistance means long-lasting performance even in challenging environments.

FAQs of Lead Rod:

Q: How are lead rods processed and finished?

A: Our lead rods are manufactured using extrusion or casting technologies, ensuring a smooth, rolled surface finish. Each rod meets strict quality standards for consistency and durability.

Q: What industries use lead rods, and why are they preferred?

A: Lead rods are commonly used in medical radiation shielding, nuclear facilities, industrial processes, and construction. Their high density and purity deliver effective radiation protection and versatility across applications.

Q: When should a customer specify customized sizes or packaging?

A: Custom sizes or packaging should be specified during the ordering process. We offer various rod diameters, lengths, thickness options, and packaging types (like wooden boxes), tailored to specific project needs.

Q: Where can lead rods be supplied or exported from?

A: We are based in India and supply lead rods both domestically and internationally as a manufacturer, exporter, and distributor. Delivery and export processes adhere to high standards for safety and quality.

Q: What is the typical process for ordering and receiving lead rods?

A: Clients can submit their requirements (including dimensions, surface finish, and packaging). After processing the order, rods are manufactured as per specifications and packed for secure delivery.

Q: How does the high density of lead rods benefit radiation protection?

A: The density of 11.34 g/cm allows lead rods to block or attenuate harmful radiation effectively, making them ideal for medical imaging rooms, nuclear reactors, and radiation shielding in industrial setups.

Q: What are the advantages of using pure lead over alloys in these rods?

A: Pure lead (minimum 99.97% Pb) offers optimal flexibility, machinability, and chemical stability, ensuring higher performance for specialty applications, especially in environments where contaminant-free material is critical.
