The 65 Cal ArcGaurd Nomex/Kevlar Overalls are designed to protect from the most intense of arc flashes making them CAT 4 Arc Flash Equipment. When Paired with the rest of the 65 Cal suit, they will provide extraordinary protection from arc flashes up to 65 Cal.
DuPont™ Nomex® Brand Fiber Provides lightweight, durable, heat and flame-resistant solutions. Made of 34% aramid, 33% lyocell, 31% modacrylic, and 2% anti-static materials, Nomex® is engineered to absorb moisture and dry quickly. Nomex® fibre - protection that can’t be washed out or worn away - helps keep the wearer safe from the everyday hazards they face on the job. PPE garments made with Nomex® provide superior heat, flame and arc flash protection while providing lightweight, comfortable solutions that meet or exceed industry standards.
The 65 Cal Arc Flas suit is made of DuPont engineered superior cut protection Kevlar®. Unlike nylon, polyester and polyethylene, gloves, mittens and sleeves made of Kevlar® fibre are inherently flame-resistant so they won’t burn, support combustion, or melt—making them a smart choice for those who encounter high levels of heat on the job. The Kevlar® fibres produced there are lightweight yarns which will allow manufacturers to make gloves that are even lighter to not only help increase worker safety through more frequent use but also help improve dexterity and comfort for the wearer.
