FAQs
What's the difference between the day-use vest and the reflective H-pattern vest?
The day-use vest is intended for daytime visibility, while the reflective H-pattern vest adds reflective tape for improved visibility in low light or at night, consistent with the intent of AS/NZS 4602.1 high-visibility garment classes. Check the specific class and intended use against your site's PPE requirements.
Are the welding jackets and aprons suitable for all welding processes?
The Pyromate welding jackets and aprons in this range are designed to protect against sparks and radiant heat from general welding work. Match the garment to your specific welding process and site risk assessment, particularly for heavier fabrication work.
Which knee pad style should I choose?
Hard shell knee pads such as the Turtle Back suit rough or abrasive surfaces, soft shell options such as Proflex suit more comfort-focused use, and leather shell pads such as Procomfort suit trades wanting a durable, low-profile option.
