Blankets

4_FS_Product_Blankets

Description

Bulk shields used to shield larger areas of radiation, produced in standard sizes such as 1’ x 2’, 1’ x 3’, 1’ x 4’, 1’ x 5’, 1’ x 6’ and 2’ x 3’

  • 5, 10, 15 and 20/lbs. per sq. ft.
  • Custom sizes are available
  • Grommets placed directly into material and rated at 270 lbs. of pull force per grommet
  • PVC laminate covering (optional)

Pipe Shields

Description

Pipe Shields are sized and formed to shield radiation from piping while meeting standard weight constraints

  • Designed to slip on, encase and snap tightly around pipes
  • Available in both standard and custom sizes and lengths
  • Designed for optimal thickness at Co-60, and to prevent streaming

Floor Shielding

3_FS_Product_FloorShielding

Description

Floor shields improve radiological and industrial safety in moderate to high traffic work areas

  • Made with maximum shielding to provide maximum attenuation
  • Can be made with traction tread to maximize worker footing

Pipe Wrap

Description

A highly flexible solution which can be quickly installed in hard to reach radiation emitting areas or hot spots

  • Standard sizes are 2”, 3” and 4” wide in 8’ or 15’ lengths, but can also be produced in custom widths and lengths
  • Standard size designed for QVL (Co-60)

Neutron Shielding

Description

Neutron Shielding is a polyethylene container with dispersed low atomic element materials to effectively moderate or thermalize incident neutrons. Surrounding the container is Bismuth shielding material to reduce dose from gamma radiation produced from neutron capture interactions. Using this combination, we can effectively attenuate many levels of Alpha particles and its high-intensity by-products.
