FAQs
What is the difference between a standard beanie and an FR work beanie?
Standard beanies are often made of synthetic materials like polyester or acrylic, which can melt and cause severe burns when exposed to flame. An FR work beanie is made from specialized fibers like Kermel® and FR Viscose that resist ignition and will not melt or drip.
What does an HRC 3 rating mean for headwear?
An HRC 3 (Hazard Risk Category) rating means the garment has been tested to provide a high level of arc flash protection. Specifically, this toque has an ATPV rating of 33, making it suitable for environments with significant electrical arc risks.
Is this flame-resistant toque itchy or uncomfortable?
No. The blend of Kermel® and FR Viscose is designed to be soft against the skin, providing the comfort of a standard winter hat with the added benefit of professional-grade protection.
How should I wash my flame-resistant clothing?
To maintain the integrity of the FR fibers, this toque should be washed on a gentle cycle and dried on a low-to-medium heat setting. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as they can degrade the protective properties.
Does this toque fit under a hard hat?
Yes, the modern, streamlined design and stretch fit make it ideal for wearing comfortably underneath a standard industrial hard hat without adding excessive bulk.
