Portwest FR14 Modaflame Anti-Static Flame Resistant Leggings

The Portwest FR14 Modaflame Anti-Static Flame Resistant Leggings are ideal for cooler conditions as they are snug and can easily be worn beneath an outer layer. The leggings are a multi-hazard garment, offering protection against electrical arcs, electrostatic discharge and radiant, convective and contact heat.

What Can the Modaflame Anti-Static Flame Resistant Leggings Do for Me?

The leggings have several helpful features:

• Flame Resistant: The fabric features inherent protection against radiant, convective and contact heat that will not diminish with washing
• Anti-Static: The leggings are certified as shielding against electrostatic discharge and the thermal effects of an electrical arc
• Breathable: The fabric is breathable and draws moisture away from the body, keeping the wearer cool and dry
• Comfortable: The hem is ribbed and the waistband is elasticated for a comfortable fit

The Portwest leggings are made from the flame resistant and anti-static material, Modaflame. The high cotton content makes the leggings warm and comfy, and the carbon fibre element confers the garment's anti-static properties.

Who Can Use the Portwest Flame Resistant Leggings?

The Portwest leggings are ideal for work environments where electrostatic discharge, electrical arcs or heat and flames are a possible danger. The leggings are cosy and can easily be worn under trousers, making them particularly suitable for a cold environment. Employees of the oil and gas industry will find the leggings invaluable.
