Product Details
The Drifire® FR Essentials Coverall is a lightweight protective garment that balances comfort, durability, and safety, constructed from a premium 6.5 oz. cotton/nylon blend for breathability and protection. Key features include the softness of cotton combined with the strength of nylon, two front pockets with secure snap closures for reliable storage, and covered snaps that enhance protection against electric arcs. The coverall has an arc rating of 9.5 cal/cm² and is classified as CAT 2. Compliance standards include adherence to NFPA 70E for arc flash, UL certification to NFPA 2112, ASTM F1506 compliance for arc flash, CSA Z462 compliance for arc flash in Canada, and OSHA 1910.269 regulations. For product care, it is essential to read and follow the garment label instructions, avoiding the use of hydrogen peroxide, chlorine bleach, or detergents containing either, as well as fabric softeners or starch. The recommended laundering process involves washing separately from other garments in warm water (maximum 165°F/74°C) with detergent only, and the garment is dry cleanable. Proper maintenance is crucial to ensure the fabric performance is upheld, especially when the garment becomes soiled with dirt, greases, or oils, and discontinuation of use is advised if contaminants cannot be successfully removed after laundering.
