Flame Resistant FR High Visibility Hi Vis Coverall - Safety Tested

In this review of the Flame Resistant FR High Visibility Hi Vis Coverall the bottom line is clear: this is a workwear piece built for people who need certified protection plus high visibility on the job. Intended for electricians, utility crews, and industrial workers exposed to arc flash and flash fire risks, the coverall combines an ASTM F1506 arc flash rating and NFPA 2112 flash fire compliance with ANSI high visibility tape. The garment's main selling point is its safety certification and practical pocketing, making it a sensible choice when protection and visibility are priorities.

Key Features

• Flame resistant fabric: 88% cotton and 12% nylon twill is mercerized to reduce shrinkage while meeting NFPA 2112 flash fire standards for dependable thermal protection.
• Arc flash protection: Fabric meets ASTM F1506 with an ATPV of 12 cal/cm2, providing an HRC 2 level of arc flash defense for medium risk tasks.
• High visibility tape: Two bands of ANSI/ISEA 107 compliant FR reflective tape keep the wearer visible in low light and increase on-site safety.
• Functional pockets and loops: Multiple pockets, a utility thigh pocket, pen and cell slots, and a hammer loop keep tools and small devices organized and accessible.
• Durable closures and fit: Heavy duty two-way YKK brass FR zipper, action back pleats, side vents and elastic side panels improve comfort and movement during long shifts.

Who It's For

The coverall is aimed at professionals who require certified protective clothing: electricians, linemen, refinery and plant personnel, or any crew working where arc flash and flash fire hazards exist. It is especially appropriate where both high visibility and flame resistance are mandatory on site.

Those who want a lightweight fashion coverall or who need protection above HRC 2 should look elsewhere; similarly, workers who expect repeated industrial laundering may prefer sizing up or a garment specified for heavy commercial wash cycles to retain fit and fabric life.

Pros & Cons

Pros
