Heat and Flame Protective Wear Stay safe out ther
e: with lightweight arc rated rainwear. ProtecWork Inherent Heat and Flame Protective Wear Heavy rain in the morning. Rising temperatures in the afternoon. Long working days. It is tough to work outside in hard weather conditions. And in some jobs, it is getting even tougher. The risk of an electric arc incident can put electrical utility workers into extreme danger every day. Of course, there is norm compliant protective gear available – but those materials are heavy, bulky and absorb rain. In addition, on warmer days, you tend not to wear them. All this puts your protection at risk. Until now. Available for electrical utility: Arc rated GORE-TEX PYRAD® garments that stay lightweight and comfortable when wet or dry. They are durably waterproof and reliably protect you against the thermal hazards of an electric arc. Maximum comfort combined with the highest protection level. Be safe – whatever the challenge. GORE PYRAD® fabric technology blocks convective heat flow during arc exposure and stops flame propagation by forming a carbonaceous char with the textile. 4
