Flame-Resistant / Arc-Rated HRC3 ToqueIn hazardous work environments where there is a risk of exposure to flames or electrical arcs, it is crucial to protect the head. The head and neck are vulnerable parts of the body and without proper protection, they can be susceptible to injuries and burns. HRC3 toques, such as the 902NB model, are flame-resistant and arc-rated. They provide an additional layer of defence, reducing the risk of burns and increasing overall safety. ColourThis dual-hazard toque is available in colour: Navy Blue FeaturesDual Hazard FR/AR Protection Pre-shrunk 60% modacrylic 40% cotton Patented Supersoft process, nice soft feel Double layer construction Tight-knit fabricUL Certified to NFPA 2112 Balaclava, Toque & Neck Warmer Available The FR/AR Toque – 901NB features several key elements making it an effective tool in protecting workers.
