Radiation Shields for Wand

Radiation Penetration Calculator

These precision-engineered radiation shields are designed to friction-fit onto the open end of the Geiger Counter wand, helping to reduce the amount of radiation that reaches the internal GM tube.

Ideal for use in nuclear experiments and educational demonstrations, these shields enhance the accuracy of your readings by selectively blocking specific types of radiation.

Compatible exclusively with the GCW-01 Wand, each shield serves a distinct purpose:

Paper Shield: Blocks alpha radiation while allowing beta and gamma radiation to pass through.
Aluminum Shield: Attenuates beta radiation.
Lead Shield: Attenuates gamma radiation.

Shields are available individually or as a complete set to suit your testing needs.
