Packaging (1) Model No.: HN-600 (2) Description A steel encased, lead shielded cask for low specific activity material. The cask is a right circular cylinder 54-1/2 inches high by 84 inches in diameter. The cask cavity is 40-1/4 inches high by 75-1/2 inches in diameter. The cask side wall consists of a 3/8-inch thick inner steel shell, a 3-inch lead shell, and a 3/4-inch thick outer steel shell. The base is comprised of two steel plates-welded together to form a 5-1/2-inch thick base which is. integrally welded to the inner and outer steel shells of the side wall. A steel flange is welded to the inner and outer shells of the side wall at the top. The 5-1/2-inch thick lid is comprised of two steel plates welded together, which are stepped l
to mate with the steel flange. The cask closure is sealed by a neoprene gasket located between the lid and. steel flange. Positive closure is accomplished by eight ratchet binders. The lid contains a 6-1/2-inch thick centrally located shield plug, comprised of three steel plates stepped and welded. The shield plug is sealed i
