The OEL AFW08-KJ 8 CAL Jacket is a flame-resistant outer garment designed for workers requiring Category 2 arc flash protection. Built from an 88/12 premium cotton blend, this jacket pairs comfort with the necessary FR characteristics to meet NFPA 70E, CSA Z462, ASTM F1506, and OSHA 1910.269 requirements, while delivering an 8 CAL/cm² rating for CAT2 protection. The garment is non-metallic and non-conductive, with a hook-and-loop enclosure and a standard 32-inch length that helps provide coverage during active work in electrical environments. Dual expansive back paneling is included to enhance mobility and ventilation without compromising protection.
OEL emphasizes domestic production, with garments hand-sewn in the USA and tested to verify compliance with arc flash safety standards. Keeping in mind practical needs on the job, the AFW08-KJ jacket is designed to balance protection with easy handling and maintenance. Bleach or hydrogen peroxide washing are specified options, supporting cleaning routines that help manage fabric care in field and shop settings. A spec sheet is available for download to review the precise test data and construction details.
When selecting this jacket, consider its khaki color and 32-inch length for compatibility with other PPE and workwear in your arc flash program. Each jacket is packaged individually, aligning with typical PPE distribution practices.
