The OEL AFW08-KCO 8 CAL Coat for men in Khaki is a flame-resistant (FR) arc flash garment designed to meet high standard safety requirements in demanding electrical and industrial environments. Built from an 88/12 premium sateen cotton blend, the coat combines protective performance with comfortable fabric handling suitable for extended wear. The design emphasizes practical mobility, including a 10" coat slit and dual expansive back paneling, to support user movement during tasks requiring reach and agility while wearing FR garb. Non-metallic, non-conductive materials and a hook-and-loop enclosure contribute to a secure, quick-fit experience without introducing conductive hardware.
Documentation indicates comprehensive alignment with recognized safety standards for arc-flash apparel, including NFPA 70E, CSA Z462, ASTM F1506, and OSHA 1910.269. The CAL rating specifies an 8 CAL/cm² CAT2 protection level, defining the garment’s arc rating and its suitability for specific incident energy assessments. These details matter because they guide selection based on the anticipated electrical hazards in a given worksite, ensuring the wearer has appropriate protection for the expected exposure while enabling compliance with applicable regulations.
Compatibility and usage considerations include the garment’s Khaki color, sizing packaged as Each, and the included non-metallic leggings option typical of this product family. Washing instructions advise avoiding bleach with hydrogen peroxide on this fabric, which can influence maintenance planning and lifecycle costs. A spec sheet is available for more technical review, and the garment is described as hand-sewn in the USA, underscoring a domestic manufacturing approach intended to support quality control and fulfillment timelines.
