The Snickers 1566 ProtecWork Jacket is a hard-wearing protective jacket for work in hazardous environments, including welding, electrical work and tasks with heat, flame or liquid chemical risks. The flame protection is inherent in the fibres, so it is built into the fabric itself.
The fabric is durable yet supple. Pre-bent sleeves and stretch panels let you reach, bend and lift with ease. A high collar adds protection at the neck, and a practical pocket layout keeps a tablet, ID card and small tools close at hand.
