The flame-resistant Portwest FR405 bib and brace is an advanced multi-standard work trouser specifically designed for professionals working in high-risk environments. This flame-resistant bib and brace provides a reliable barrier against heat, flames, and static electricity. Thanks to the fluorescent fabric and heat-applied reflective tape, you are also ensured excellent visibility during your daily work in harsh conditions.
For which specific work environments is this flame-resistant Portwest bib and brace suitable?
This bib and brace is ideal for use in ATEX environments and sectors where welding spatters, liquid chemicals, or electric arcs pose a direct risk.
The clothing is certified according to EN ISO 11611 Class 1 for welding and EN 13034 Type 6 for limited protection against liquid chemicals. This makes the model highly suitable for the petrochemical industry, mechanical engineering, and heavy industry where exposure to heat, flames, and static electricity occurs daily.
What does the EN ISO 11612 standard on this flame-resistant bib and brace mean?
The EN ISO 11612 standard on this bib and brace guarantees that the wearer is protected against heat and flames.
The specific codes A1 and A2 stand for limited flame spread, while B1, C1, and F1 provide protection against convective heat, radiant heat, and contact heat, respectively. Because the flame-resistant properties are inherent in the fibers of the Modaflame fabric, these protective qualities are not lost during washing, ensuring you remain assured of maximum safety in the workplace for a long time.
Innovative stretch panels and a stretch crotch gusset provide maximum flexibility. With nine storage pockets, kneepad pockets, and an extendable leg, this bib and brace offers optimal comfort.
