Mobile Lead Barriers
Mobile lead barriers are a critical line of defense in environments with routine or unpredictable radiation exposure, including Surgery, Cath Labs, Interventional Radiology, and Diagnostic Imaging suites.
At RCS, we offer a curated selection of mobile lead barriers from trusted manufacturers like Burlington Medical, INFAB, and Techno-Aide. These barriers are designed to meet the demands of high-traffic procedural spaces, offering both full-body protection and easy mobility without sacrificing visibility or safety.
Our lineup includes adjustable-height and fixed-panel models with clear protective acrylic windows. Many barriers are also available with locking wheels and ergonomic handles to support precise positioning during use.
Whether you're outfitting a new OR or upgrading legacy protection across multiple departments, our team will help you select the right solution.
Expert Review
When choosing mobile lead barriers, protection is paramount—but so is usability and workflow integration, especially in dynamic clinical environments.
Barriers with large, leaded acrylic windows offer clear visibility without compromising safety, which is crucial in high-exposure areas such as cath labs and Interventional Radiology. For spaces that demand flexibility, we recommend mobile units with locking casters and ergonomic handles that allow staff to position them precisely, without disrupting sterile fields or procedure flow.
Height-adjustable options and panel widths tailored to your room layout can make a significant difference in daily use. We often guide facilities toward models that balance structural integrity with ease of maneuverability, particularly in ORs and trauma bays where every second and square foot counts.

What to Consider when Purchasing a Lead Glasses
Selecting the right mobile lead barriers for your facility can feel complex—but the right choice will enhance both safety and workflow. Here’s what to keep in mind.
Mobility and Maneuverability
In fast-paced clinical settings, barriers must move easily without disrupting procedures. Look for models with smooth-rolling, locking casters and ergonomic handles that allow staff to position them precisely. Adjustable-height options can also accommodate different operator needs and room configurations.
Protection Levels
Radiation protection is non-negotiable. Most mobile barriers offer 1-2mm Pb in the body panels, and many include leaded acrylic windows for visibility without exposure risk. Make sure the barrier's specifications align with your department’s safety protocols and your Radiation Safety Officer’s recommendations.
