Portwest FR Anti-Static Winter Jacket - Red - XXL

This jacket is designed for individuals working in hazardous environments, offering protection against flame, heat, and static electricity, while also providing warmth and high visibility.

While it offers protection and warmth, its specialized FR and anti-static properties are intended for specific industrial or hazardous work conditions. It may be unnecessarily warm or restrictive for casual, everyday use.

The flame resistance is guaranteed for the life of the garment, provided it is cared for according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Class 2 welding protection indicates that the garment offers a higher level of protection against welding hazards, such as sparks and heat, compared to Class 1.

Yes, the jacket features extra thick wadding insulation and an FR cotton lining designed for warmth in cold conditions. It also meets EN 342 standards for cold protection.

Machine wash at 40°C, do not bleach, tumble dry on low, and iron on low heat. Crucially, avoid fabric softeners and dry cleaning, as these can compromise the flame-resistant treatment.

The anti-static properties help to prevent the buildup of static electricity, which is crucial in environments where flammable materials are present to reduce the risk of ignition.

Yes, this jacket features a detachable hood with a brass zip attachment, allowing for versatile wear and added protection when needed.

Ensure the inner waist adjustment is snug and the detachable hood is properly secured. Check that all zippers are fully closed. If the issue persists, the filling may be compromised; consider replacing the garment if it is old or damaged.

Avoid high heat during washing and drying. Gently iron the garment on a low setting if necessary, avoiding direct contact with the tape. If damage is significant, the tape's effectiveness is reduced; professional repair or replacement may be needed.

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Check for any debris or damage to the zipper track.

Strictly adhere to the recommended washing and drying instructions. Avoid harsh detergents, bleach, fabric softeners, and high heat. Over time, even with proper care, flame resistance can degrade; follow the product's expected lifespan.
