What Is Lead Lined Glass?
Lead lined glass is a type of annealed glass that is composed of lead oxide and other heavy metals. It is manufactured to provide effective radiation protection by absorbing any radiation emitted. Our lead lined glass is composed of high-quality materials and has a uniform density, ensuring it offers reliable radiation protection in any environment. It has been rated for radiation protection against medical x-rays, alpha and beta particles, and gamma rays.
Are Lead Lined Glass and Radiation Shielding Glass the Same?
Yes, lead lined glass and radiation shielding glass are the same thing. Both terms are used to describe glass with a high lead content that is designed to absorb radiation while still allowing visibility. However, radiation shielding glass may be composed of other materials beyond lead and heavy metals.
Applications of Lead Lined Glass
Lead lined glass offers protection for employees, patients, and anyone else who is in a high-risk environment and could be at risk of exposure to radiation. Our lead lined glass is specifically designed to meet the 2mm lead equivalency, which means that it can be used in medical and laboratory settings. Some of the industries and settings we serve with our lead lined glass products are:
- Airport security
- Medical imaging, including x-ray stations and MRI stations
- Medical radiation shielding
- Industrial applications, including industrial x-ray imaging, electron beam shielding, and non-destructive testing
- Dental offices and dental laboratories
- Laboratories
- Radioactive storage stations
- Nuclear fuel development plants
- Nuclear shielding
Our lead lined glass products include:
- X-ray and radiation shielding glass barriers
- Portable or mobile leaded barriers
- Safety goggles or lead lined glasses lenses
- Protective screens for radiation testing facilities
- Protective screens for plasma generators
- Protective screens for medical diagnostics
- Custom radiation shielding for nuclear plants and storage stations
- Lead-lined shielding glass in standard sizes and thicknesses for use as protective windows or observation windows in laboratories, medical diagnostic facilities, airport security x-ray stations, and more
Benefits of Using Lead Glass for Radiation Shielding
