Replacement X-Ray Lead Glass for L-Block Shields (L-Shields)
Scratched, clouded, or cracked viewing glass on your L-Block shield can slow workflow and reduce visibility at the exact moment you need it most. Lead Glass Pro supplies precision-cut replacement x-ray lead glass for L-Block shields (also called L-Shields) used in radiopharmacy, nuclear medicine, PET handling, and isotope lab work.
Fast turnaround. Clear communication. Exact-fit support.
Why Replace Your L-Block Lead Glass?
- Restore visibility: Improve line-of-sight for safer, faster handling.
- Maintain shielding integrity: Replacement lead glass preserves the barrier performance your workstation relies on.
- Reduce downtime: Quick ordering and rapid fabrication keeps your operation moving.
- Extend equipment life: Replace the glass instead of replacing the entire L-Block shield assembly.
What You Receive
- Custom-cut replacement lead glass for your L-Block viewing window opening
- High Lead Equivalency Options
- Impact Resistant Safety Glass Optional
- Careful packaging designed for fragile, high-density glass
Common L-Block Window Sizes (Compatibility Reference)
Many standard nuclear medicine L-Blocks use a lead glass viewing window around 8" × 8" × 4", with some models offering alternate window formats (such as 8" × 4" × 4"). Always verify your exact opening and thickness before ordering.
Important: L-Blocks and L-Shields vary by manufacturer and model. We can match your replacement glass once we confirm:
- Visible viewing area (width × height)
- Total glass thickness
- How the glass is retained (gasket, channel, housing, compression frame)
- Any corner radii, notches, or special cutouts
Fit & Measurement Guide (Fast)
- Measure the existing glass (preferred) OR measure the window opening if glass is missing.
- Record width × height to the nearest 1/16".
- Measure thickness with calipers if possible (or provide the model info).
- Send 2 photos: front of the L-Block and a close-up of how the glass is held in place.
Once we confirm receive that info, we’ll quote and fabricate quickly.

FAQ: Replacement Lead Glass for L-Blocks
Do you need the L-Block model number?
It helps, but it’s not required. If you can provide measurements and a couple photos, we can usually match the replacement glass accurately.
What’s the most common L-Block lead glass window size?
Many standard L-Blocks use a viewing window around 8" × 8" × 4", with some models offering alternate window formats. Always confirm your exact glass dimensions and thickness before ordering.
Can you replace glass that’s chipped or cracked?
Yes—replacement is recommended. For safety, handle damaged lead glass carefully and follow your facility’s handling and disposal procedures.
How fast can you ship?
Lead times depend on size, thickness, and finishing requirements. Once we confirm measurements, we’ll provide a clear fabrication and shipping timeline.
Can you recommend shielding thickness or lead equivalency for our use?
Shielding requirements depend on your isotope, activity, workflow, and facility conditions. If you need shielding recommendations, a radiation safety officer or physicist should specify requirements. We fabricate to the specification you provide.
