FEATURES & PRODUCT DETAILS
ProShield® 6 SFR is a Lightweight, disposable overgarment designed to help protect and preserve primary flame-resistant garments. It provides a barrier against non-hazardous particles and aerosols while not contributing to burn injury.
ProShield® 6 SFR garments won’t ignite and continue to burn when exposed to a flame source. They are flame retardant treated, not inherently flame resistant, and are intended to be worn over your primary flame resistant garments.
- Pin locking slider locks in place when the pins on the puller are pushed into the zipper elements
- Laydown collar
- Open wrists
- Open ankles
- Manufactured under specifications that do not contain natural rubber latex.
- Stormflaps.

DDITIONAL EQUIPMENT NEEDED
- ProShield® 6 SFR For flash fire and electric arc hazards, partial body protective Tychem® 6000 FR garments must be used in conjunction with primary flame resistant clothing that is rated for the fire/arc hazard. Garments are flame retardant treated, not inherently flame resistant, and are intended to be worn over primary flame-resistant garments. ProShield® 6 SFR garments will not provide thermal / fire protection if worn alone.
- Wear other appropriate PPE such as, but not limited to, respiratory, eye, head, hand, and foot protection based on the hazard assessment.

SPECIAL WARNINGS
- *Serged and bound seams are degraded by some hazardous liquid chemicals, such as strong acids, and should not be worn when these chemicals are present.
- *Liquid barrier performance varies based on the amount of liquid that may get on the garment, the length of time the liquid is on the garment, applied pressure and certain physical properties of the liquid. Tyvek®400, Tyvek® 400 D, ProShield®, ProShield® 10, ProShield® 60, Tyvek® 400 FC, and ProShield® 70 garments are not appropriate if during use they are getting wet (liquid is dripping or running, or it is wet to the touch) or if spotting is observed on skin or garments worn under the protective garment. Tyvek® 500 and Tyvek® 600 offer improved liquid barrier, but may not be appropriate if spotting is observed on the skin or garments worn under the protective garment. In applications where a higher liquid barrier is needed, consider Tychem® 2000 and Tychem® 4000 garments with taped seams.
