Description

The SHIELD ACRYLIC 11.5IN × 7.5IN × 15IN LATEX FREE is a protective biohazard shield engineered to reduce radiation exposure when handling beta-emitting isotopes in laboratory and research environments. Constructed from durable 0.5-inch thick acrylic, the shield provides an effective physical barrier against beta radiation while minimizing bremsstrahlung production. Its transparent design allows continuous visibility of work areas, enabling precise handling of radioactive materials without compromising operator protection.

Designed for use in research laboratories, nuclear medicine departments, pharmaceutical facilities, and academic institutions, the shield delivers reliable protection during procedures involving beta emitters such as phosphorus-32 (P-32). The dimensions of 11.5 inches by 7.5 inches by 15 inches provide ample shielding coverage while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for laboratory benches and confined workspaces. 

The shield complies with OSHA safety recommendations and is designed for convenient operation within laboratory fume hoods and controlled workstations. Skid-resistant feet provide enhanced stability during use, reducing movement on smooth work surfaces. The clear acrylic construction ensures unobstructed viewing of instruments, samples, and procedures, supporting accuracy and efficient workflow while maintaining protective separation from hazardous materials.
