The OEL AFW40-NJB 40 CAL Jacket and Bib Overall Kit SwitchGear Hood is a category 4 arc flash protection ensemble designed to meet stringent electrical safety standards while providing a complete on-site solution. The kit combines a 40 CAL jacket and bib-overall with a switchgear hood and associated head and eye protection, including safety glasses, a Class E rated hard hat with an HT lens faceshield, a cap bracket, headgear storage bag, and an Arc Flash duffle bag. The garment set is fabricated from an 88/12 premium Indura cotton blend and is engineered to support arc-rated protection in demanding work environments while enabling practical wear with features like non-metallic and non-conductive materials, a hook and loop enclosure, torso-adjusting fasteners, a 32" standard inseam, dual expansive back paneling, an elastic waistband, and a 24" leg slit for ease of movement.
OEL emphasizes domestic production, hand-sewn assembly in the USA, and a commitment to testing compliance for arc flash clothing, with the expectation that each garment adheres to the required safety standards for Category 4 protection. The kit’s inclusion of a Switchgear Hood and related headwear storage, along with a dedicated arc flash bag, supports organized field use where arc-rated apparel, eye/face protection, and head protection are required together.
When selecting this kit, consider the need for compatible arc-rated accessories and the potential care requirements: washing instructions specify avoiding harsh oxidizers like bleach and hydrogen peroxide, which helps preserve fabric integrity and protective performance. The product provides documented compatibility with NFPA 70E, CSA Z462, ASTM F1506 and F2178, OSHA 1910.269, and CAL 40 CAL/cm² CAT4 ratings, indicating its suitability for electrical safety programs that reference these standards. Each item is packaged as an individual kit component, with a standard sizing approach for the jacket and bib-overall and a navy color option.
