The OEL AFW040-BSBO-GTX is an arc flash bib-overall designed to help workers stay protected while enabling mobility in demanding environments. The garment integrates PYRAD® fabric developed with GORE-TEX Labs, delivering inherent water resistance and windproofing while aiming to mitigate heat stress. It features OEL’s FR Signature Bib-Overall Straps and a hook-and-loop waist fastening for a secure, adjustable fit. The design emphasizes freedom of movement with a tapered leg and advanced knee articulation, plus a knee pad insert pocket for added comfort when kneeling or working at lower heights. A dedicated FR hi-visibility striping adds visibility while maintaining flame-resistant performance requirements where applicable. Quick Redry technology and a lightweight construction contribute to easier maintenance and faster reuse between jobs, though exact performance claims should be verified against the provided spec sheet.
Constructed as a single-layer fabric system intended for arc flash scenarios, this garment is tested to meet safety standards for arc resistance. The AFW040-BSBO-GTX aligns with NFPA 70E considerations and provides an ATPV-based hazard assessment pathway, with a calculated cal/cm² rating of 40 and a hazard category level of 4 in the referenced documentation. Charcoal Grey coloring and the integrated cargo/bib pockets support practical on-site use, including storage of small tools and documentation. Availability notes indicate possible extended lead times for this product family, so planning for delivery is advisable when scheduling maintenance or project work.
Users should consider sizing and package details as documented: each unit is sold individually, and the product page includes a downloadable spec sheet for in-depth technical data. Maintenance and inspection should follow the spec sheet guidance to ensure continued arc flash protection and fabric performance. The garment’s windproof and water-resistant characteristics, combined with breathability and a relatively lightweight profile, aim to balance protection with comfort during extended wear in field conditions.
