FAQs

1. What are flame-resistant shirts, and how do they work?

Flame-resistant shirts are specialized garments designed to protect wearers from fire and heat exposure. They are made from materials that self-extinguish once the heat source is removed, reducing the risk of burns and injuries.

2. Who needs to wear flame-resistant shirts?

People working in industries with fire or heat hazards, such as oil and gas, electrical utilities, welding, and firefighting, are required to wear flame-resistant clothing. Employers often mandate their use for compliance with safety regulations.

3. How are flame-resistant shirts different from fireproof shirts?

Flame-resistant shirts resist ignition and self-extinguish, but they are not fireproof and can still burn under prolonged exposure. Fireproof shirts, by contrast, are designed to withstand fire indefinitely but are typically used in specific, non-apparel contexts like protective gear for equipment.

4. Do flame-resistant shirts offer protection against electricity?

Yes, many flame-resistant shirts provide protection against arc flashes, a type of electrical explosion. However, not all flame-resistant shirts are rated for arc flash protection, so it’s important to check their certifications.

5. Can I layer regular clothes under flame-resistant shirts for extra warmth?

Yes, but it’s recommended to wear FR-rated base layers for consistent protection. Non-FR clothing underneath can melt or ignite, compromising safety.
