We present a beryllium-made device for X-ray diffraction experiments suitable for holding highly radioactive amorphous samples and agreeing synchrotron safety regulations. This container is mainly intended for Wide Angle X-ray Scattering technique, in transmission mode and normal conditions, but can also be extended to other X-ray diffraction methods at different temperature and pressure conditions.
