Neck protector

Aluminised neck shield 100% para-aramid

The aluminised neck shield is the perfect option for plants where there is contact with flames, convective heat, radiant heat and molten iron and aluminium splashes. Discover the characteristics of this neck shield.

-          100% para-aramid (450 g/m2) Aratex fabric. Aratex is a fabric developed for protection against convective heat, metal splashes and contact heat, with low electrical conductivity and high chemical and cut resistance.

-          Aratex has a dual mirror aluminised system, which offers a double layer of protection to the worker in the event of breakage or wear of the exterior layer.

-          The adhesive used to join the aluminised layer and the base material (para-aramid) is made of silicone. Silicone prevents flames from spreading, does not emit gases if burned and is wonderfully resistant when in contact with hot metals.

-          Soft and flexible fabric, providing greater comfort.

-          Garments are light in order to ensure improved mobility.

-          Hook-and-eye helmet attachment system, which is adaptable to all safety helmets on the market.

-          3 versions available, with 4, 6 and 8 points of adjustment.

-          Category 3 PPE.

-          Neck shield offers the following markings:

o   Limited flame propagation: A1 (the surface can withstand a flame for 10 sec, and the post-combustion time is up to 2 sec.)

o   Convective heat: B1 (heat flow range from 4 to 10 seconds, 80 Kw/m3)

o   Radiant heat: C4 (heat flow range > 95 seconds at 20 Kw/m3)

o   Molten aluminium splashes: D3 (molten aluminium splashes of more than 350 grams)

o   Molten iron splashes: E3 (molten iron splashes of more than 200 grams)

o   Contact heat: F2 (conductive heat transfer time from 10 to 15 seconds at 250ºC)

Because of its characteristics and markings, this garment can be used in sectors such as smelting, metal industry, pyrotechnics, oven repair, steelworks or cement works.
