Last updated: July 2026 dataThin-gauge lead sheet, strip, and foil at or below 0.2 mm thickness serves specialized applications including radiation shielding liners, acoustic dampening laminates, and certain chemical-industry uses where precise gauge control is critical. Germany and the United Kingdom are the leading US suppliers, reflecting European expertise in precision lead rolling. The 0.2 mm thickness threshold is the sole classification boundary separating this heading from the thicker plate and sheet category (780419); importers should ensure that certified thickness measurements accompany shipments to avoid reclassification disputes at entry.

Thickness is measured at the thinnest cross-section of the product. Mill certificates or manufacturer test reports showing caliper measurements are the standard supporting documents. CBP may physically measure samples during examination, so consistency between declared and actual gauge is essential.
Primary end uses include radiation shielding in medical and nuclear facilities, acoustic and vibration dampening in construction and automotive applications, and specialty chemical-process equipment. The thin-gauge requirement limits this heading to precision-rolled products rather than general construction lead sheet.
