Radiation Protection Sleeves
Scatter protection should not stop at the cuff. RFB sleeves are sterile, powder‑free Dry Natural Rubber sleeves with lead oxide attenuation — an attenuating barrier along the forearm during radiological procedures.

Trade name RFB XL / RR‑SLV · Sizes SM · MD · LG
Premium‑quality PPE sleeves made from Dry Natural Rubber with lead oxide (PbO) attenuation. They are intended to protect the operator, patient or other persons from unnecessary exposure to radiation during radiological procedures — worn with any RFB glove series for continuous coverage past the wrist. Powder‑free and chlorinated for easy dry or damp donning, with a beaded cuff to prevent roll‑down.
