Description: 

All Vest/Skirt Aprons create maximum weight distribution between the shoulders and hips which eliminates stress on the upper and lower back. Vest/Skirt Aprons also provide greater flexibility to the wearer with regard to sitting, bending, or stooping. Vest/Skirt sizes can be mixed to provide maximum comfort and fit.

All Vest/Skirt Aprons come with standard features:
* Shoulder pads
* Pockets on vest and skirt
* 9" (23 cm) hanging loops on skirt

Weight Relief Vest/Skirt Apron
* Single piece front vest panel makes this mode extremely light.
* Velcro closures at right side and right shoulder of vest.
* Unisex sizes.

Xenolite NL (No-Lead) - a lead-free, super-lightweight 2-element composite.  Xenolite NL is recyclable and safe for non-hazardous disposal.  Lead-vinyl is 40% heavier.

XENOLITE No-Lead
Competitive Feature Benefits

The following is a fact-based* comparison of XENOLITE NO-LEAD versus other lead-free aprons in the USA.  These competitive aprons are all based on tin or tin-antimony attenuating materials, whereas XENOLITE NO-LEAD is a scientifically balanced, proprietary, patented mixture of two complementary attenuating elements providing lighter weight and better protection

?        XENOLITE NO-LEAD is the world's lightest-weight apron material when compared at equal protection (80 kV-120kV).

?        Tin-based competitive materials are 15 to 30% heavier for the same protection.

?        XENOLITE NO-LEAD delivers and guarantees its stated mm Pb protection at 100 kV.  Most tin-based products are designed and tested at only 80 kV which is their peak protection.  They do not provide the stated/label protection at 100 kV where there is two to three times greater transmission and exposure than at 80 kV.

?        XENOLITE NO-LEAD is the only lead-free material in the USA which meets the tough new IEC world standard for apron protection (IEC 61331-3/1) at both the 80 kV & 100 kV test levels, with 0.15/0.25 mID Cu filtration.

?        Several scientific papers have been written about the XENOLITE NO-LEAD innovative technology.  It has been tested and approved by hospitals and government agencies in over 10 countries, complying with DIN, JIS and CE marking EC requirements.

?        At the high kV of some: special procedures (120 kV) the tin-based competitors lose over 20% of their protection.  They are well below 0.40mm Pb.  This means a 70% higher exposure.  XENOLITE NO-LEAD provides the most consistent protection over the range 60 kV-125 kV and has up to 20% lower transmissions.

?        Beware of aprons with labels that do not show protection as mm Pb but only as % attenuation.  They may be disguising true protection values.  One apron states "> 84% attenuation at 100 kV".  This means 16% is getting through, two to three times more exposure than XENOLITE NO-LEAD'S 0.50 mm Pb apron and almost double its 0.35mm Pb apron.

?        XENOLITE NO-LEAD is the only truly recyclable material and it is re-used to make new aprons.  Alternatively, it can be incinerated or safety disposed of in municipal landfills as a non-hazardous wast.  It contains no toxic heavy metals.

?        XENOLITE NO-LEAD is latex-free and does no use plasticized PVC/vinyl.  PVC/vinyl contains both chlorinated hydrocarbons (a toxic hazard when incinerated) and phthalate plasticizers (a group of compounds in which several are banned due to toxicity).
