Reverse Flex Jacket One-Piece Apron, Lightweight Lead
Product Description
The Reverse Flex Jacket One-Piece Apron, Lightweight Lead offers a streamlined, one-piece design that merges high-level radiation protection with ergonomic relief. By integrating a specialized reverse-flex mechanism, this apron effectively transfers weight from the shoulders to the core, reducing fatigue during long procedures.
Features:
- Weight Distribution - The internal flex system shifts the apron’s load to your hips, providing integrated lumbar support and shoulder relief
- Streamlined One-Piece Design - Unlike traditional multi-layered wraps, the one-piece construction eliminates bulky overlap, making it significantly lighter and more breathable
- Reverse-Flex Entry - Designed for effortless wearability, the reverse closure system allows for a secure fit with a quick “easy-on, easy-off” application
- Maximum Mobility - The jacket style is tailored to move with your body, ensuring full-coverage protection without sacrificing your range of motion
- Lead Equivalencies:
- 0.35 mm Pb (1-Meter Apron): Use only if you can maintain a 1-meter (3-foot) distance
- Safety: At 1 meter, it provides the lowest dose (5.8 uSv) for distanced workers
- 0.50 mm Pb (Proximity Apron): Necessary standard for table-side work or being within 0.5 meters of the source
- Safety: Offers the highest attenuation (96.5%) against high-intensity scatter
- Usage: Best for general clinical use when you cannot step back
- 0.35 mm Pb (1-Meter Apron): Use only if you can maintain a 1-meter (3-foot) distance
- Core Material:
- Lightweight Lead Core - For decades, lightweight lead has been the industry standard in radiation protection. Known for its durability, affordability, and proven shielding performance, it is a reliable choice for facilities seeking trusted, cost-effective radiation safety.
- Fabric Options:
- Nylon - A classic lightweight fabric, Nylon is a synthetic material with high tenacity and excellent abrasion resistance. Nylon is also highly resilient, has good specific strength, and provides high resistance to insects, fungi, molds, mildew, rot, and many chemicals
- Polytron - A smooth fabric with a soft touch. Manufactured in the U.S., it has flexible, comfortable qualities due to its Polypropylene construction. This lightweight material is also inherently stain-resistant, PFC chemical-free, and bleach-cleanable
- PVC EasyClean - A thick fabric that provides a leather-like touch. Made of an ultra-resistant material, it is, as the name suggests, very easy to clean: with a quick wipe, it is clean and ready to go
- Ripstop - A woven fabric that uses a reinforcing technique, which makes it more resistant to tearing and ripping. Often made of Nylon, Ripstop is a lightweight material with interwoven ripstop reinforcement threads in a crosshatch pattern, making it look like diamond stitching
