Portwest FR02 Grey Bizflame FR Cotton Shirt

The Portwest FR02 Grey Bizflame FR Cotton Shirt is a lightweight crew neck top, ideal for layering. The shirt offers inherent flame resistance and easily exceeds the requirements for an ARC2 rated arc flash protection garment, making it ideal for hazardous workplaces such as factories.

What Can the Grey Bizflame FR Cotton Shirt Do for Me?

The shirt has several helpful features:

• Flame Resistant: The shirt has inherent flame resistant properties and will reliably protect you from radiant, convective and contact heat
• Arc Flash Protection: Due to the insulating properties of the fabric the protection it offers against electric arcs is very high, and exceeds the requirements for an ARC2 rating
• Breathable: The fabric of the crew neck is moisture wicking and breathable

The shirt is constructed from Bizflame Knit, a lightweight and superior fabric made from 100% flame resistant cotton. The flame resistance of the material is inherent, and the ATPV rating far exceeds the requirements of ARC2 arc flash protective clothing.
