Pure beryllium metal is perfectly transparent to X-rays.

Thanks to this unique characteristic, beryllium windows are essential in the medical field for radiographic equipment and other imaging technologies (mammography, medical lasers, CT scanners, MRI, DNA analysis lasers).

In the security sector, beryllium is indispensable in detection systems used in airports, for example. Beryllium metal is critical for explosive detection systems at airports, seaports, and border control stations.

NGK offers round or rectangular/square plates in various thicknesses and dimensions to meet the specific requirements of equipment manufacturers.
