Zusammenfassung:A basket (1) for transport and/or storage packaging of radioactive materials. The basket (1) comprises an internal partition (6, 8) having at least one wall (82, 84), and a peripheral partition (10). The wall (82, 84) has two opposing lateral surfaces (81, 85). The peripheral partition (10) interacts with the internal partition (6, 8) to define cells for housing the radioactive materials. The peripheral partition (10) comprises a housing accommodating one end of the at least one wall (82, 84). The housing comprises two opposing lateral housing surfaces (102, 106) and a bottom (104) bringing together the two lateral surfaces (102, 106) of the housing. According to the invention, the basket (1) comprises a tightening element configured to press at least one of the lateral surfaces (81, 85) of the wall against at least one of the lateral surfaces (102, 106) of the housing.
