The Snickers 2861 ProtecWork Sweatshirt is a crew neck sweatshirt for people working in high-risk areas where electric arc, heat, flame and static are hazards. The fabric is developed specifically for arc-flash protection, so you get protective cover in a familiar, practical sweatshirt.
It suits year-round wear and works well as a mid-layer, adding insulation and extra arc protection beneath a protective outer garment. It can be washed at 60 ºC and tumble dried, which makes regular cleaning straightforward.
