Full details
This Dickies FR24/7 Everyday Flame Retardant Coverall in Blue (36" Waist) is designed for male adults working in environments where protection against heat, flames, and electrostatic discharge is crucial. Its primary benefit is offering certified safety compliance with comfort for daily wear. A potential consideration is that while it provides protection, it is a coverall and may require specific care to maintain its flame-retardant properties. Key features include protection against welding, electrostatic properties, and a range of practical pockets for tools and equipment.

FAQs
What specific standards does this coverall meet?
This coverall is certified to EN ISO 11612: 2015 (A1 A2 B1 C1 E3 F1), EN ISO 11611: 2015 (Class 1 A1 A2), and EN ISO 1149-5: 2008.
What does EN ISO 11612 certification mean?
This standard certifies protection against heat and flame. The specific letter/number codes indicate protection against different types of heat exposure (e.g., convective heat, radiant heat, contact heat).
What is the fabric composition?
The fabric is made from 320gm² material, consisting of 99% cotton and 1% antistatic material.
Is this coverall suitable for all types of welding?
It is certified to EN ISO 11611 Class 1, which covers protection for lower-risk welding operations. Always consult your workplace safety guidelines for specific requirements.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Measure your waist accurately according to standard UK men's sizing (36" waist in this case) and compare it with the sizing guide. The coverall should allow for comfortable movement over regular clothing without being too baggy.
Can I wear this coverall in hot weather?
While made with a durable fabric (320gm²), the cotton blend offers some breathability. However, it is designed for protection first. For extremely hot conditions, ensure appropriate underlayers and hydration.
Are there other colors available?
Yes, this Dickies FR24/7 Everyday Flame Retardant Coverall is also available in Red and Orange, though availability may vary by size and specific retailer.
Troubleshooting
Coverall feels stiff after washing
This can happen with flame-retardant fabrics. Ensure you are using the recommended detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Consider a low-heat tumble dry with a dryer ball to help soften the fabric.
Reduced flame resistance or static dissipation
This may indicate the garment has reached the end of its useful life or has been improperly washed. Check the care label and ensure no harsh chemicals or excessive heat were used. If the garment is old or damaged, consider replacement.
Stitching is coming undone
Minor loose threads can sometimes be trimmed carefully. However, if structural stitching is failing, the coverall may no longer provide adequate protection and should be retired.
Zipper or stud fasteners are difficult to use
Ensure the fabric around the fastener is not caught. Clean the fasteners gently with a damp cloth. If they remain stiff, a small amount of graphite lubricant can be applied sparingly.

Compatibility: This garment is designed for personal protective equipment (PPE) compliance in environments requiring protection against heat, flame, and static. It is suitable for use over standard work clothing.
Care Instructions: To maintain the flame-retardant and electrostatic properties, adhere strictly to the washing instructions provided on the garment's label. Typically, this involves washing at a moderate temperature (e.g., 60°C), using mild detergents, and avoiding bleach or fabric softeners. Do not dry clean. For best results and to preserve the fabric's integrity, tumble dry on a low setting or air dry. Ironing should be done at a medium heat.
