The OEL AFW025-NBO 25 CAL Bib Overall is an arc-flash rated garment designed for demanding electrical safety environments. Crafted from an 88/12 premium Indura cotton blend, this navy bib overall integrates non-metallic, non-conductive materials and features a hook-and-loop enclosure, torso-adjusting fasteners, an inseam hemlock adjustable up to 6 inches, a standard 32-inch inseam, and expandable, non-metallic straps with an elastic waistband that accommodates up to 6 inches of waist expansion. A 24-inch leg slit supports mobility and layering, while the overall construction emphasizes domestic production practices, with in-USA sewing and materials sourcing supported by OEL’s emphasis on arc-flash safety testing and compliance.
These bib overalls are specified to meet NFPA 70E, CSA Z462, ASTM F1506, and OSHA 1910.269, indicating alignment with recognized electrical safety standards. The CAL rating of 25 CAL/cm² (Category 3) provides a quantified arc-flash protection level appropriate for many high-risk tasks while avoiding extrapolated performance claims. The garment’s design emphasizes non-metallic components to reduce conductive risk and simplify integration into environments with electrical hazards. Care guidance references bleaching agents and hydrogen peroxide, which informs maintenance planning to preserve fabric performance over time.
Users should consider the product’s sizing and packaging details (each) and verify compatibility with their specific PPE ensemble, including fit around the torso and leg segments for comfort during long shifts. The included spec sheet download supports evaluating technical compatibility with existing safety programs and standards compliance. This garment is marketed as Made in America, with emphasis on domestic fabrication practices that align with buyer expectations for quality control and traceability in critical PPE purchases.
