Product Description:
The X50 Short Duration Fire Entry Suit is a heavily insulated aluminized suit designed to protect from extreme heat, sparks, and brief periods of engulfment or flashover.
The suit features a Z-Flex® aluminized outer shell which reflects95% of radiant heat and withstands radiant temperatures up to 3000°F (1650°C). In addition to providing outstanding protection, Z-Flex® is also the most durable luminized material available and will not de-laminate under even the most demanding conditions. A foil layer beneath the outer shell acts as a secondary defense against extreme temperatures, and two layers of fiberglass insulation provide protection even during extended exposure.
This suit can be used in a wide range of industries including foundries, petrochemical plants, processing facilities, and other environments where workers
are exposed to extreme temperatures.
