Radiation Protection Gloves
What makes the our gloves the best in the industry? See below for our specifications that meet and exceed CE and ASTM standards.
Radiation Attenuation Data:
Attenuation measurement at broad beam according to EN 1331-1 (IEC 61331-1/ASTM-2547-06)
Radiation Beam Energy Level | Skin Dose Reduction | Skin Dose Reduction | Skin Dose Reduction |
Max | Thin | Ultrathin | |
60 kV | 63% | 51% | 41% |
80 kV | 53% | 44% | 33% |
100 kV | 46% | 39% | 28% |
125 kV | 41% | 27% | 21% |
Nominal value for lead equivalence is 0.04 mm Pb. Settings for lead equivalence: 80 kV, 0.15 mm Cu filter, narrow beam.
