Product Information

Full details

This Blaklader 3494 long-sleeved T-shirt is designed for women who require high-visibility and protective workwear. Its primary benefit is offering robust protection against flame, arc flash, and static discharge while maintaining comfort. A potential caveat is its specialized nature, making it best suited for specific hazardous environments rather than general everyday wear. Key features include its high-visibility Class 1 rating, flame-resistant and antistatic properties, and a feminine fit for enhanced comfort.

FAQs

What does Class 1 high-visibility mean?

Class 1 is the lowest class of high-visibility clothing, suitable for environments where visibility is not severely compromised and workers are moving at lower speeds (e.g., stationary work, pedestrian activities).

Can this T-shirt be worn on its own?

Yes, it can be worn on its own, but it is often used as a base or mid-layer for added protection and comfort in conjunction with other workwear.

What is the AT PV rating?

The AT PV (Arc Thermal Performance Value) rating of 13.1 cal/cm² indicates the amount of thermal energy that can cause a second-degree burn through the fabric during an arc flash event. This rating helps determine the level of protection against electric arc hazards.

How often should I wash this T-shirt?

Wash as needed based on soiling and comfort. However, frequent washing, especially with improper care, can degrade the protective properties over time. Always refer to the care label for best practices.

Is this T-shirt suitable for all climates?

The 250 g/m² fabric offers good durability and protection, but it might be warm for very hot and humid climates. It is best suited for moderate to cooler conditions or as a layer in colder environments.

What specific standards does this garment meet?

It is certified under EN 1149-5 (Electrostatic properties), EN ISO 20471 (High-visibility), EN ISO 11612 (Protection against heat and flame), and IEC 61482-2 (Protection against electric arc).

What materials are used in this T-shirt?

The primary material is a blend of 48% modacrylic, 42% cotton, 5% aramid, 3% polyamide, and 2% antistatic fiber, in an interlock knit.

Troubleshooting

Garment loses its protective properties.

Ensure washing instructions are strictly followed. Avoid fabric softeners, harsh detergents, and improper drying/ironing methods which can damage the specialized fibers.

Reduced high-visibility.

Check for excessive wear or damage to the reflective tape. Ensure the garment is kept clean; dirt can obscure visibility.

Discomfort during wear.

Verify the correct size has been selected. Ensure the garment is properly cared for, as stiffness from improper washing can affect comfort.

Static electricity is still noticeable.

While the garment has antistatic properties, extreme conditions or certain environmental factors may still lead to some static. Ensure the garment is clean and properly laundered according to care instructions.
