Product Information

Full details

The Mascot Accelerate Safe Bib & Brace is designed for adult male workers who require high visibility and durable protective wear. Its key benefit is enhanced safety through its Hi-Vis certification and robust construction, coupled with exceptional comfort and freedom of movement thanks to its stretch fabric. A potential caveat is that its high-visibility features and certifications are dependent on correct sizing and logo placement, which must adhere to EN ISO 20471 standards.

FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the stretch fabric used in this bib & brace?

The Ultimate Stretch fabric provides exceptional freedom of movement and comfort, allowing workers to perform tasks without restriction. It combines low weight with high durability.

Can I use any kneepads with this product?

For optimal safety and to maintain EN 14404 certification, it is recommended to use specific MASCOT kneepad types such as SHORT or LONG, or models like 00718-100, 50451-916, and 20118-915. The kneepad pockets are height-adjustable for compatibility.

How do I ensure the Hi-Vis certification remains valid?

The product is certified to EN ISO 20471 Class 2. To maintain this, ensure correct sizing and that any applied logos do not exceed the approved area limits (max 0.1000 m² front/back, with each not exceeding 50% of the total approved logo area).

How can I extend the leg length if needed?

Each standard leg length can be lengthened by 3 cm by releasing the internal red stitches. This allows for a more customized fit.

Is this bib & brace suitable for wet conditions?

The product has a water-repellent finish, offering protection against light moisture. However, it is not fully waterproof and may not be suitable for prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

Are the holster pockets removable?

Yes, the holster pockets are detachable. They can be zipped off when not in use, if they need to be emptied, or if the trousers require washing.

What is the fabric composition?

The main fabric is a combination of lightweight fabric quality 236 and four-way stretch fabric quality 511. The material description specifies 92% polyamide and 8% elastane for the stretch fabric areas, and 70% polyester/30% cotton for other parts.

Troubleshooting

Bib & brace does not feel secure or slips down.

Adjust the length of the shoulder straps using the elastic and plastic buckles. Ensure the waist is comfortably snug using the adjustable waist feature.

Kneepads do not stay in place.

Utilize the simple individual adjustment of the kneepad pocket height. Ensure the correct size and type of MASCOT kneepads are used and properly inserted into the CORDURA® pockets.

Reduced visibility despite Hi-Vis colours.

Ensure the product is clean and free from heavy soiling, which can obscure reflective tapes. Verify that no unauthorized or excessively large logos have been applied, as this can compromise certification.

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Iron the garment following the 'Hot iron' instruction. This can help restore some of the fabric's feel and water-repellent properties. Ensure washing is done at the recommended 40°C.
