New fire resistant clothing range
October 1st 2011

Now available from ESAB, the new FR range of clothing is designed for welders. From the FR Economy black overall, right up to the Phoenix FR Leather jacket and trousers, each item has been made with the needs of the welding operative to the fore.

The FR Economy overall, made from an inherently flame resistant material, comes with two chest pockets with concealed single stud fastening. The garment has a side elasticated back for comfort and a concealed stud front with brass studs. In addition to the two patch chest pockets there is an internal mobile phone pocket, straight hip pockets and a back ruler pocket.

A proban leather jacket and trousers form a suit that gives protection during heavy duty welding. The fabric material makes the garments lightweight, breathable and comfortable to wear; judicious use of leather ensures good protection against spatter and small drops of molten metal in the most exposed areas.
