Lead bricks are commonly used as radiation shielding. Lead shielding refers to the use of lead as a form of radiation protection to shield people or objects from radiation so as to reduce the effective dose.
For this reason, EMI protection is best if foil shields are used in combination with braided (better conductors) shields. Foil shields, since they are usually aluminum, are necessarily crimped, though some are combined with a drain wire, which makes contact with the foil and may be soldered.
