X-Ray Lead Glass Windows
At Nuclear Shields, we supply X-ray lead glass windows for use in X-ray rooms, CT control areas, and industrial inspection setups. These windows provide clear visibility and effective shielding against radiation, ensuring operator safety without compromising view quality.
What is X-ray lead glass
X-ray lead glass contains lead oxide, which gives it the density required to absorb X-rays and gamma photons while maintaining full transparency. The level of protection depends on the lead equivalence and glass thickness, typically between 1.6 mm Pb and 3.2 mm Pb.
Advantages
- Effective protection for X-ray and CT environments
- High optical clarity with minimal tint
- Custom-cut sizes and thicknesse
