Flame Resistant FR High Visibility Hi Vis Coverall - Durable

In this review of the Flame Resistant FR High Visibility Hi Vis Coverall, the reviewer finds it best suited to workers who need certified flame and arc protection without sacrificing visibility or comfort. The single biggest reason to buy is its compliance with industry standards: NFPA 2112 and ASTM F1506 with an ATPV of 12 cal/cm2, which places it in HRC 2 protection while also offering ANSI/ISEA 107 high visibility reflective tape. Fit and material choices make it practical for field crews and industrial laundered use, though buyers should pay attention to sizing guidance.

Key Features

• Flame resistant twill: The 88% cotton/12% nylon 7 oz fabric balances natural comfort with FR performance for sustained wear on the job.
• Certified protection: Compliance with NFPA 2112, ASTM F1506 and UL certification gives verifiable protection against flash fire and arc flash hazards.
• High visibility tape: Two strips of ANSI/ISEA 107 compliant FR reflective tape increase wearer visibility in low light or traffic-exposed environments.
• Practical pocketing: Multiple pockets including breast pockets with snap flaps, hip pockets, thigh utility pocket and left arm pen/cell slot keep tools and devices accessible.
• Durable closures and fit: Heavy duty two-way YKK brass FR zipper, action back pleats and elastic side panels improve mobility and suggested long term durability.
• Mercerized fabric: The mercerized finish reduces shrinkage and helps preserve fit after industrial or frequent washing.

Who It's For

This coverall is aimed at electricians, utility crews, refinery and petrochemical workers, and anyone who must meet NFPA 2112 and ASTM F1506 requirements while remaining highly visible. The HRC 2 rating and ATPV 12 cal/cm2 make it appropriate for moderate arc flash risk where a one-piece, full-sleeve garment is preferred.

Those who should look elsewhere include workers needing lighter weight summer garments or higher ATPV ratings; if a higher level of arc protection or cooler fabrics are required, other specialized garments will be a better fit. Also, users who prefer a tailored fashion fit may find industrial sizing and the suggested one-size-up guidance more utilitarian than fitted.
