Manufacturer limitations and warnings

  • ProShield® 6 SFR garments are flame retardant treated, not inherently flame-resistant, and are intended to be worn over your primary flame-resistant garments.
  • These ProShield® 6 SFR garments have attached boot covers made of the garment material. These attached boot covers must be worn inside protective outer footwear and are not suitable as outer footwear. These attached boot covers do not have adequate durability or slip resistance to be worn as the outer foot covering.
  • Only Tychem® 6000 FR garments are designed and tested to help reduce injury during escape from a flash fire. DuPont™ ProShield® 6 SFR and Tychem® 2000 SFR garments offer secondary flame resistance and are designed to be used over primary flame-resistant garments, including but not limited to, DuPont™ Nomex® Essential (Nomex® IIIA) or Nomex® Comfort garments. In addition, for ProShield® 6 SFR and Tychem® 2000 SFR hooded garments, primary flame-resistant hood/balaclava should be worn. Users of Tychem® 6000 FR, Tychem® 2000 SFR, and ProShield® 6 SFR garments should not knowingly enter an explosive environment. Consult the Tychem® User Manual, located on our website, for instructions on proper use, care and maintenance of your Tychem® garments.
  • Catalog p.12/13: ProShield® 6 SFR and Tychem® 2000 SFR coveralls provide only secondary flame-resistant protection. They must always be worn over an appropriate primary flame-resistant garment and primary flame-resistant hood/balaclava in an environment that needs flame protection, along with other personal protective equipment that protects your face, hands and feet.
  • *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.
