Product Information

Full details

This Portwest Flame Resistant Anti-Static Coverall is designed for adult males working in high-risk environments, particularly the offshore industry. Its key benefit is providing robust protection against heat, flame, and electrostatic discharge, ensuring wearer safety. A potential caveat to consider is that while offering excellent protection, it is a specialized garment and may not be suitable for all work conditions. Key features include flame-retardant fabric, high-visibility elements, multiple functional pockets, and an action back for mobility.

FAQs

What type of protection does this coverall offer?

The coverall provides protection against flame, heat (radiant, convective, and contact), and electrostatic discharge. It is certified to various industry standards for these hazards.

Is this coverall suitable for all types of welding?

This coverall is certified to EN ISO 11611 Class 2 (A1+A2), which is suitable for Class 2 welding operations. Always consult your specific job requirements and risk assessments.

How do I determine the correct size?

The coverall is available in sizes XS to 6XL. Refer to the Portwest sizing chart for detailed measurements (chest, waist, inside leg) to select the best fit.

Can this coverall be worn in hot weather?

While designed for protection, the 350g fabric provides significant heat resistance. It may feel warm in very hot ambient conditions. However, it is generally more breathable than some other heavy-duty protective garments. Consider the specific heat and flame hazards of your work environment.

What does 'anti-static' mean in this context?

The anti-static properties (EN 1149-5 certified) help to dissipate electrostatic charges, reducing the risk of sparks that could ignite flammable atmospheres or sensitive electronic components.

How often should I inspect the coverall for damage?

It is recommended to visually inspect the coverall before each use for any signs of wear, damage to seams, reflective tape, or fastenings. Regular inspections ensure continued safety performance.

What is the arc rating (ATPV) of this garment?

The ASTM F1959/F1959M-12 rating is ATPV=13.6 Cal/CM² (HAF=82%), indicating the level of protection against electric arc thermal hazards.

Troubleshooting

Coverall feels stiff after washing.

This can sometimes occur with flame-retardant fabrics. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and tumble drying on a low heat. Avoid over-drying. The fabric should become more pliable with wear.

Reflective tape is peeling or damaged.

Inspect the tape regularly. If minor damage occurs, avoid further use in hazardous areas. Follow washing instructions carefully to prolong tape life. If significantly damaged, the garment's high-visibility properties are compromised.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite lubricant (from a pencil lead) to the teeth. Do not use oil-based lubricants. Ensure the zipper is closed correctly before attempting to move it.
