The Snickers 1561 ProtecWork Jacket is a protective hi-vis jacket for hazardous work where several risks occur together. It suits welding and allied processes, work near heat, flame or electric arc, and sites with liquid chemical splash or static-sensitive areas, while giving you the highest class of visibility.
The fabric is durable yet supple. Pre-bent sleeves and stretch panels let you reach, bend and lift with less restriction. A high collar adds protection at the neck.
