The OEL AFW60-NJB 60 CAL Jacket and Bib Overall Kit SwitchGear Hood is an arc-flash protective ensemble designed for rugged work environments. This Navy-colored kit pairs a 60 CAL jacket with matching bib-overalls, delivering Category 4 protection for workers who may be exposed to high-energy electrical hazards. The fabric is described as an 11oz premium layered Indura cotton blend, and the garments are manufactured in the USA with hand sewing by OEL, reflecting an emphasis on domestic production and quality control. The included Switchgear Hood assemble and HT lens faceshield, along with a Class E hard hat and headgear storage bag, create a complete, integrated protection system suitable for controlled, arc-flash-prone applications. The overall package also includes an arc flash duffle bag for transport and organization of gear, along with safety glasses for eye protection.
Key construction and design features focus on non-metallic, non-conductive materials and user-adjustable components. The jacket and overalls incorporate a hook-and-loop enclosure with torso adjustment, a 32-inch standard inseam, dual expansive back paneling, an elastic waist with up to 6 inches of expansion, and a 24-inch leg slit. These details support ease of movement and a secure fit while maintaining electrical-arresting protection. Washing guidance specifies avoiding chlorine-based treatments and suggests care with bleach or hydrogen peroxide, aligning with common maintenance practices for FR fabrics.
Use this kit where NFPA 70E, CSA Z462, ASTM F1506/F2178, and OSHA 1910.269 compliance considerations apply. The product’s CAL rating is 60 CAL/cm² (CAT4), indicating substantial energy-absorbing capability suitable for certain arc-flash scenarios. The packaging lists each kit as an individual package, with the Navy color kept consistent across jacket and bibs, and the included accessories designed to support field readiness and quick on-site deployment.
