Working with high temperature processes requires total and sophisticated protection to ensure that the risk of burns is eliminated. After the success of our range of Nomex® gloves and with lots of feedback from our customers requesting similar protection for the main body area we developed the Nomex® apron. Made from the same material as our gloves this apron offers the same high performing protection from the risk of burns and at a very cost effective price. A growing number of hospitals and NHS trusts are finding this apron to be an invaluable item in their demanding working environments.
Features:
Heat resistant
Low thermal conductivity
Asbestos Free
Double thickness
Knitted fabric for comfort
Does not shrink or melt
Unaffected by washing
Hard wearing
Good chemical resistance
Conforms to EN420, EN407 (41301X) and EN388 (1X4X)
Withstands temperatures up to 370oC when degradation begins. When exposed to flame, Nomex does not melt or drip. It simply chars, without offensive odour and with little smoke, to leave a ‘crust’, which continues protection. In normal usage a maximum working temperature of 260oC maintains most physical properties over a number of hours. However, short exposure (e.g. flash fires) gives protection at considerably higher temperatures.
