BENDED FLAT IRON, SHIELDING

The bended flat iron is a type of shielding used in various applications, particularly in the field of radiation protection. It consists of a flat piece of metal, typically lead or steel, that is bent into a specific shape to conform to the desired area of protection.

Bended flat irons are commonly employed for:

• Shielding X-ray tubes and other radiation sources
• Protecting personnel from scattered radiation during medical procedures
• Securing radioactive materials in storage or transport

The effectiveness of bended flat iron shielding depends on several factors, including the thickness of the metal, the density of the material, and the type of radiation being shielded.
