FAQs
What specific safety standards does this T-shirt meet?
The T-shirt is certified to EN 1149-5 for electrostatic properties, EN ISO 11612 for protection against heat and flame, and EN 61482-2 for protection against electric arc.
Can this T-shirt be worn as outer protection?
While it offers certified protection, it is often intended as a base layer. Always follow your workplace's specific PPE guidelines for appropriate layering.
What is the main fabric composition?
The main material is a blend of 60% modacrylic, 39% cotton, and 1% Antistatic fiber.
How should I care for this garment to maintain its properties?
Wash inside out at up to 60°C with similar colors. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not bleach. Do not dry clean.
Is this T-shirt suitable for all types of flame hazards?
It is certified for specific hazards including heat, flame, and electric arc. It is not designed for all possible extreme fire scenarios; always ensure it meets the specific requirements for your work environment.
Why does it have an antistatic fiber?
The antistatic fiber helps to dissipate static electricity, reducing the risk of ignition in flammable atmospheres and preventing electrostatic discharge.
Does the women's fit affect the protective qualities?
No, the women's fit is designed for comfort and proper positioning of the garment on the body, ensuring the protective fabric covers the intended areas effectively.
Troubleshooting
Reduced flame resistance after washing.
Ensure washing is done according to the 60°C maximum guideline and without harsh detergents or bleach. Avoid fabric softeners, which can impede performance.
Discomfort from static electricity.
Verify the garment is being worn as intended and that the antistatic properties are not compromised by other non-antistatic clothing worn directly against the skin.
Seams appear to be weakening.
Check for signs of excessive wear or damage. Reinforced seams are durable, but harsh mechanical stress or improper washing can affect longevity. Adhere strictly to care instructions.
