Measured Lead Equivalence : 0.34mm at 100 KVp of X-ray beam.
Direction to Use
General: All radiation protection aprons should be regularly checked and monitored for substrate integrity. We recommends a minimum of two inspections annually. Any protective apron that shows holes, tears or radiation leakage must be taken out of service immediately and either repaired or destroyed.
Storage:
Aprons should always be properly hung on a rack or hanger specifically designed for protective apron storage. Never fold, crease or stack an apron. Avoid sharp objects. Core material is fragile and once punctured renders an apron unusable & will allow radiation to pass to the wearer.
Cleaning:
Use only warm water and mild detergent or our specially formulated apron cleaner. Never use harsh chemicals and never use commercial or machine washing or drying on aprons.
Disinfecting:
NEVER use a steam autoclave as the heat will cause severe damage to the protective substrate. Aprons can be ETO gas sterilized or disinfected with Clorox Hydrogen Peroxide Spray or Wipes.

FAQs
- Lead aprons absorb 90%–95% of scattered radiation that reaches them. “Wrap- Around” lead aprons are useful when medical personnel spend a lot of time with their backs turned away from the patient.
- Note: It is recommended that you follow the manufacturer’s recommendations and/or the state regulations regarding the proper care and use of lead protective equipment. X-ray Aprons should be cleaned daily and deodorized by scrubbing with a soft bristle brush, using cold water and a mild detergent.
- Lead metal is the preferred material for radiation shielding. The reason is that lead is highly effective in providing protection from sources of radiation. Lead metal is dense; it can be used against various high-energy applications of radiation, including gamma rays, x-rays, and other types of nuclear radiation.
