Easy-release velcro closures allow the surgical drop to fall even when underneath your scrubs. With padded shoulders and a criss-cross back strap design the surgical drop apron provides maximum comfort for all users. Hanging straps are included to allow for easy storage on any Protech apron rack.

Protech makes every effort to accurately record its apron weights. Because each category is averaged, the numbers we provide in the weight chart are subject to a +/- 15% weight variance. Minor length or width adjustments, including heavier fabrics, are not differentiated and instead, averaged together. Please consider this when referencing the weight chart.

Protection Information
There is very little change in the protecting capability of the three apron inner material protection options at the Kvp ranges of 75 - 100. A difference does exists, however, in the lower Kvp ranges of 30 - 45. These lower ranges are the most damaging to the human body and this little known fact is why you should choose Protech Medical. We are dedicated to premium quality products that will keep you safe.
Note - Attenuation measurements based on 100 Kvp for Protech aprons.
- Leaded equivalent protection of .5mm thickness attenuates 98% direct beam.
- Lead equivalent protection of .35mm thickness attenuates 96% direct beam.
- Lead or non lead equivalent protection of .25mm thickness attenuates 92% direct beam.
