No lead tape will not stop a cell phone from going off in a metal detector. Lead tape is used to add weight to a Golf club and does not block electromagnetic signals. Cell phones are designed to transmit signals and lead tape will not be able to block those signals. If you want to stop your cell phone from going off in a metal detector there are several things you can do:
- Turn off the phone before entering a metal detector
- Put the phone on silent or vibrate mode
- Put the phone in airplane mode
- Keep the phone out of reach of the metal detector
These methods should help to prevent your cell phone from going off in a metal detector. If you are still having trouble you may want to consider using a different phone or device that does not emit signals.

How do you get a cell phone through a metal detector?
I assume the metal detector is there to ensure that passengers/people are not carrying bombs, guns and knives, etc. Therefore, to try to pass through by hiding a mobile phone, could lead to you being taken out of the line and strip searched, if discovered. Usually, mobile phones and metal objects (keys,etc.) are placed in a tray, so the operator can assess whether the objects are harmless and can be let through.
