250nm to 520nm Laser Shielding – 24″ x 24″

Description

Enclose your whole machine with this GIANT piece of shielding!  This is as big as we can get a piece and still be able to ship it effectively.  It costs a bit more than our smaller pieces due to the increased packaging cost.

This is a must for your new laser build! Protect the area around your machine and everyone’s eyes from stray laser radiation reflections.  This material is optical grade semi-transparent acrylic material that has been tested with our 405nm and 445nm lasers to show an OD of 3+.  Sheets are sold in 23 7/8″ x 23 7/8″ sizes.  Easily cut with saw or router to desired size for your machine.  Each piece comes with “Warning – Never Look Directly into a Laser Beam – Laser in Use”, “OD 3+ @445nm”,  sticker for safety.

Be safe and not only wear safety goggles, but enclose your working area of your laser upgrade machine!

Tested Specifications:

(Note:  Doubling up of shielding pieces does not increase the OD value)

Testing setup with 445nm laser
