Fireproof Cabinets — Expert Answer

Can fireproof cabinets store X-rays or radiological films?

Medical X-rays and radiological films have the same basic fire vulnerability as paper — they can be destroyed at temperatures above 300°–350°F. A standard UL Class 350 fireproof cabinet will protect them from fire damage. However, X-rays require lateral or oversized horizontal filing to avoid bending. Flat-file or lateral-format fireproof drawers are best. Confirm drawer interior dimensions can accommodate your film sizes before purchasing.
