Shielding parts are important in medical and industrial applications for protecting humans. They are often employed to shield patients or operators of complex technology from potentially dangerous sources of exposure like electromagnetic radiation used in applications like radioactive source containers, syringe covers for radioactive isotope injection, collimators, and shielding for high energy cancer therapy or manned spacecrafts.

Shielding parts are also critical in protecting delicate electronics from the damaging effects of radiation. Applications in this field might include shields for orbital satellite systems, aircraft avionics, and guidance systems or oil well logging instrumentation.

Elmet Technologies (formerly H.C. Starck Solutions) has manufactured high-performance shielding parts using refractory metals for markets like medical and aerospace for over five decades.
