The OEL AFW100FL-BJB kit combines a 100 CAL arc flash jacket and bib overall with a SwitchGear hood system, designed for workers who face high arc-flash hazards. The set includes a premium 100 CAL jacket and bib overalls, plus head and face protection components such as safety glasses, a Class E rated hard hat with HT lens faceshield, a cap bracket, and an assembled Switchgear hood with dual 9V fan units. The result is a comprehensive PPE package intended to provide coverage for the upper and torso regions while offering integrated cooling through the dual fans, helping mitigate heat buildup during exposed tasks. The fabric is described as an 11-ounce triple-layered inherent blend, and the gear is treated as Category 4 PPE with a CAL rating of 100 CAL/cm², aligning with NFPA 70E, CSA Z462, and relevant ASTM standards. The complete kit is supplied with a headgear storage bag and an arc flash-specific duffle bag for organization and transport, reflecting a focus on turnkey protection and on-site practicality.
From a construction standpoint, the product line emphasizes non-metallic, non-conductive materials and features such as a hook-and-loop enclosure, torso-adjusting closures, and a 32-inch inseam by default with an inseam adjustment up to 6 inches. The design also includes dual expansive back paneling and an elastic waistband that accommodates up to 6 inches of variation, along with a 24-inch leg slit to facilitate movement. These features contribute to fit flexibility and ease of donning while maintaining arc-rated protection. The package’s care instructions specify bleach and hydrogen peroxide as compatible washing options, which may influence maintenance planning for repeated use in demanding work environments.
Users should verify compatibility with their specific worksite requirements and ensure appropriate sizing by selecting the standard package size (Each) and considering the inseam and waistband flexibility to suit different body types and layering needs. The kit’s compliance indicators—NFPA 70E and CSA Z462 eligibility, along with ASTM F1506 & F2178 and OSHA 1910.269 alignment—reflect industry-standard expectations for arc-rated PPE in many industrial settings, though buyers should confirm that these standards match their local regulatory expectations and site-specific safety programs.
