BOCOMAL FR Henley Long Sleeve Shirt NFPA2112 CAT2 - Lightweight

In this review the BOCOMAL FR Henley shirt stands out as a practical choice for industrial workers who need certified flame resistance without heavy fabric bulk. The single biggest reason to buy is its combination of NFPA2112 and ASTM F1506 classifications with a lightweight 6oz 100% cotton jersey construction, which delivers comfortable wear in warmer conditions while still meeting HRC2 protection requirements.

Key Features

• Material: The 6oz 100% cotton jersey is soft and lightweight, making the shirt comfortable for long shifts and less burdensome in summer heat.
• Flame Resistance: Treated FR materials with FR aramid threads and compliance with NFPA2112 and ASTM F1506 provide certified protection against flash fire and arc hazards.
• Durability: Rated to retain flame-resistant properties for up to 100 washes, so protection remains effective through repeated laundering.
• Fit and Finish: Prewashed and preshrunk fabric aims to reduce post-wash shrinkage and the wrinkle-free finish makes it low maintenance on the job.
• Identification: Visible FR tag on the chest pocket and UL tag on the inseam help confirm certification and traceability for safety audits.
• Design: Henley long sleeve styling gives a casual, familiar fit that layers under work outerwear while offering neck coverage.

Who It's For

The BOCOMAL FR Henley is best for welders, electricians, fitters, ironworkers and other industrial tradespeople who need NFPA2112-rated protection but prefer a lighter weight garment for comfort. It is also suitable for employers seeking certified workwear that can be laundered frequently without immediate loss of FR performance.

Those who need heavyweight or insulated FR shirts for very cold environments should look elsewhere, and buyers should note the recommendation to order one size up because several customers report a snug fit for some body types.
