The OEL AFW25-NJB 25 CAL Jacket and Bib Overall Kit SwitchGear Hood represents a complete Arc Flash PPE ensemble designed for workers needing Category 3 protection. The kit pairs a navy 25 CAL jacket with a matching bib-overall to create a unified system intended to help reduce arc exposure in high-risk environments while enabling independent components to be inspected and maintained as needed. The garment set is described as being constructed from a premium Indura cotton blend and is backed by OEL’s claim of USA-made assembly and testing to applicable arc flash standards, which supports consistent performance within documented safety criteria.
Key construction notes highlighted in the product data emphasize non-metallic, non-conductive materials, a hook-and-loop closure system, a torso-adjusting hook-and-loop, and an inseam hem adjustment that can extend up to 6 inches. The design includes a 32-inch standard inseam, dual expansive back paneling, and an elastic waistband to accommodate waist expansion up to 6 inches, along with 24-inch leg slits. These features collectively aim to balance mobility with coverage, which can influence both fit and comfort across a range of body types and work tasks.
In addition to the jacket and bib-overall, the kit includes safety glasses, a Class E rated hard hat with a lens face shield cap bracket, a complete assembled Switchgear Hood, a headgear storage bag, and an arc flash duffle bag, providing a comprehensive set for arc-rated protection and related PPE storage. The product’s documented compatibility and standards references indicate NFPA 70E, CSA Z462, ASTM F1506 & F2178, and OSHA 1910.269 compliance, with a CAL rating of 25 CAL/cm² (Category 3). Care guidance specifies that the garments are suitable for care with bleach or hydrogen peroxide, which can inform maintenance planning. Packaging is listed as “Each,” indicating individual kit units. Since the data is presented by the manufacturer with the stated standards and materials, buyers should verify sizing and fit using the provided inseam measurements and adjustability options to ensure proper coverage and comfort in use.
