Got some from Niche Niche Products which is thin. Have also purchased from here Home it's a lot cheaper but is thicker than the Niche product.

I've got some really thin, NON adhesive lead sheets. They came from the local dental hospital's x-ray dept. If you, or for that matter anyone else want's some, then drop me a p.m. & Ill send you my address so you can send me a stamped s.a.e.

Default Lead sheet (sticky Back)

Hi

If you know any one who works in the aircraft industry (building them) they should be able to procure you some. Comes in rolls like sellotape about inch wide but quite thin great for weighting nymphs etc. Hope this helps.
