Portwest FR56 Red Bizflame Offshore Trousers

The Portwest FR56 Red Bizflame Offshore Trousers are equipped to cope with a variety of industrial hazards, such as splatters of molten metal, arc flashes and radiant, convective and contact heat. The trousers feature inherent anti-static properties and the stripes of reflective tape help to increase their visibility in low light conditions.

What Can the Red Bizflame Offshore Trousers Do for Me?

The trousers have many helpful features:

  • Flame/Heat Resistant: Class 2 welding protection from molten metal in addition to resistance to radiant, convective and contact heat

  • Functional: Knee pad pockets for comfort, triple-stitched seams for durability, seven pockets for storage

Bizflame Plus garments like the trousers feature 1% of carbon fibres woven into the material, thereby conferring inherent anti-static properties. The material has excellent tear and tensile strength, and the cotton content makes it comfortable to wear.
