I have a couple of dwellers with maxed out stats by now. When they go out to level up, they will not take red radiation damage for several days. The maximum I have so far managed was around five days without needing a radaway.

However, when I send the same dwellers out the second time when they are already 50, they get radiation damage. It's slow and not enough for them to use a radaway on two days, but there is red damage.

I assumed with Endurance on 10 that would not happen at all. Why are they not immune to radiation?

dwellers with maximized stats gets radiation damage

Only dwellers that have endurance stat ≥ 11 will be immune to radiation (see this related question). Also: when a dweller levels up, he is completely healed (health and radiation).

Since level 50 is the max level, a dweller at that level cannot level up and therefore does not get the complete heal from a level up.

If you want your exploring dwellers to be immune to radiation, they have to have an endurance stat of ≥ 11. Training will only go to 10, but you can give them equipment that raises their stats over that.
