Black Turnout Gear
The black turnout gear is a high-performance firefighter bunker gear specifically designed for urban fire rescue missions. Certified to EN 469, NFPA 1971, CCC, and GA10-2014, black turnout gear features a Nomex IIIA outer shell (93% Nomex, 5% Kevlar, 2% conductive fibers) combined with a four-layer composite structure. This design delivers exceptional flame resistance, heat resistance, waterproofing, and comfort. The professional black design is not only modern but also resistant to stains, making it ideal for long-duration operations. Equipped with 3M high-reflective strips and a drag rescue device (DRD), black turnout gear excels in urban fires, chemical incidents, and high-temperature rescue scenarios.
Detail
The black turnout gear features a four-layer structure designed for comprehensive protection:
Outer Shell
- Made from Nomex IIIA (93% Nomex, 5% Kevlar, 2% conductive fibers), the outer shell offers superior flame resistance and abrasion resistance. It also prevents static buildup, reducing secondary fire risks.
Moisture Barrier
- Constructed from aramid non-woven fabric and PTFE material, the moisture barrier blocks water vapor and chemical penetration while maintaining breathability, enhancing comfort during extended missions.
Thermal Liner
- The thermal liner combines 80% Nomex and 20% Kevlar insulation, providing excellent protection against radiant heat and high temperatures.
Comfort Layer
- Made from a 50/50 blend of Nomex and Lenzing FR, the inner lining is soft, moisture-wicking, and reduces fatigue during long shifts.
The gear is reinforced at critical points, such as elbows, knees, and cuffs, with abrasion-resistant, flame-retardant materials for enhanced durability. The 3M reflective strips improve visibility in low-light and smoky conditions, while the drag rescue device (DRD) allows for quick and efficient rescues in emergencies. Weighing only 2.88 kg, it balances protection and comfort, making it an excellent choice for urban firefighting missions.
Feature
1. Multi-Layer Structure for Comprehensive Protection
- Four-layer design (outer shell, moisture barrier, thermal liner, comfort layer) ensures effective flame resistance, heat insulation, and waterproofing.
- Built with high-performance materials (Nomex, Kevlar, PTFE) for superior durability and chemical resistance.
2. Professional Black Design
- The black exterior resists stains and provides a modern, professional appearance, commonly used in urban fire departments.
3. High Visibility and Functionality
- Equipped with 3M high-reflective strips (50mm wide) for increased visibility in low-light or smoky environments.
- Includes a drag rescue device (DRD) on the back for efficient emergency rescues.
4. Comfort and Breathability
- Moisture-wicking inner lining keeps firefighters dry and comfortable during extended missions.
- The moisture barrier and thermal liner provide breathability without compromising on protection.
5. Reinforced Durability
- Critical areas (elbows, knees, cuffs) are reinforced with abrasion-resistant, flame-retardant materials to enhance durability in demanding environments.
Applications
1. Urban Fire Rescue
Specifically designed for urban firefighting scenarios, including high-rise buildings and underground fires.
Black design enhances stain resistance and presents a professional image for urban fire departments.
2. Chemical Fire Rescue
Anti-static properties and chemical resistance make it ideal for handling fires in chemical plants and laboratories.
3. High-Temperature Fire Rescue
Materials like Nomex and Kevlar ensure excellent heat resistance, suitable for high-temperature and radiant heat environments.
4. Extended Operation Tasks
The moisture-wicking inner lining and breathable moisture barrier allow for long-duration wear in intensive rescue missions.
