Various Applications of Lead Sheet

There are additional uses associated with waterproofing, nuclear energy shielding, and vibration absorption.

Applications Using Lead Sheet

• Roofing/Flashing – Lead sheet offers flexibility and longevity. Unlike other materials, a sheet of lead can be securely dressed around penetrations and joints. In fact, this is the only material that provides adequate protection in these areas from water damage. Lead also handles temperature fluctuations; it is malleable, preventing cracks; and it will outlast other materials by up to ten times.
