The PIP 9100-21721 AR/FR Jacket is a flame-resistant, arc-rated work jacket designed for electrical and utility environments. It provides a nominal ATPV rating of 25 cal/cm2 and falls under PPE Category 3 (HRC 3), indicating a higher level of arc protection appropriate for higher-risk electrical tasks. The garment is constructed as an FR woven cotton/nylon double-layer jacket, with a protective stand-up collar and aramid knit cuffs to help retain coverage during movement. A hook-and-loop front closure and aramid high-tenacity thread help maintain durability at stress points, with bar-tacking at all critical seams to resist wear and tear. The absence of metal components enhances comfort and reduces snag potential in confined spaces and work vehicles.
Documented compliance and testing references are listed in the product specifications, including NFPA 70E-2012, ASTM F1506-10a, ASTM F2178-12, and OSHA 29 CFR 1910.269. These align the garment with industry expectations for electrical safety apparel and help support worker protection programs that rely on arc-flash risk assessments. The jacket is color-coded Navy and is categorized as a jacket-type PPE item with a package size of one piece per unit and a case quantity of one, facilitating straightforward stocking and replacement in maintenance or utility operations.
Considerations for use include selecting this jacket for environments where arc flash exposure is anticipated and where protective layering is required without metal hardware that could interfere with equipment or harnesses. The product is supplied under the PIP brand and carries the described AR/FR construction and standards alignment, with a spec sheet available for detailed verification. When ordering, verify sizing and ensure compatible outerwear and PPE ensembles meet site-specific safety requirements and training protocols.
