FIELD: nuclear power engineering. SUBSTANCE: method for manufacturing fuel elements for nuclear reactors including liquidmetal-cooled ones involves manufacture of lead tube inserted in fuel element can throughout active length of fuel element. Auxiliary clearance between can and lead tube is taken up by means of drift-pin. Bottom end of can is treated and bottom plug is welded. Ceramic pellets are charged into lead-covered can and locked in position within the latter. Top end of can is treated. Top plug is welded in controlled gas environment and finishing operations are made. EFFECT: enhanced uniformity of lead layer between fuel pile and can; facilitated procedure; simplified design of equipment used. 4 cl
