Lead Half Apron- 0.5mm Pb Equivalency

Lead Half Apron 0.50mm Pb Equivalency

The Lead Half Apron 0.50mm Pb Equivalency is designed for targeted radiation protection during selected diagnostic imaging and fluoroscopy procedures. Its compact half-apron format provides protection to the covered body area while allowing easier movement compared with a full-length apron.

The apron uses a Lead Vinyl shielding core and is available in multiple lead-equivalency configurations. This product variant provides 0.50 mm Pb protection for the protected front area, making it suitable for clinical environments where this protection level is specified by the facility’s radiation-safety programme.

An adjustable strap with buckle and front Velcro closure help secure the apron during use. With approximate dimensions of 55 × 45 cm and an approximate weight of 2 kg, the apron offers a compact radiation-protection solution for hospitals, radiodiagnostic centres, cath labs, C-arm procedures and other applicable imaging environments.
