OEL AFW040-NBO 40 CAL Bib Overall Standard Mens Navy

The OEL AFW040-NBO 40 CAL Bib Overall is a Category 4 arc-rated protective garment designed for high-heat, arc-flash environments. Manufactured by OEL, this bib overall is constructed from an 88/12 premium Indura cotton blend and is available in navy. The design emphasizes non-metallic and non-conductive materials, with features like a hook-and-loop enclosure, torso-adjusting hook-and-loop fasteners, an inseam hemlock that adjusts up to 6 inches, a standard 32 inch inseam, non-metallic expansive straps, and a 24 inch leg slit. These details collectively support reliable fit and comfort while maintaining arc-flash protection. The garment is validated to NFPA 70E, CSA Z462, ASTM F1506, and OSHA 1910.269 standards, reflecting alignment with widely recognized safety requirements for electrical work and related tasks.

Documented construction details matter because they help ensure the garment provides the intended protective performance under arc-flash exposure, while the fabric blend informs durability and comfort in demanding work settings. The product’s category is listed as Category 4 PPE, with a CAL rating of 40 CAL/cm², which corresponds to higher-level arc-flash protection. In practice, users should select this garment when their hazard assessment indicates exposure to higher arc-flash energy and when a non-metallic, non-conductive, and durable outer layer is appropriate for the work conditions.

For practical use, consider that washing instructions in the source data specify acceptable treatments like bleach and hydrogen peroxide, which may influence maintenance planning and fabric longevity. The item is offered as a single unit in navy, with a standard package size of Each, facilitating straightforward stocking and sizing decisions for job sites requiring multiple units or sizes.
