Firefighting suits, known as Structural Firefighting Gear or Turnout Gear, are full-body personal protective suits worn by firefighters during firefighting and rescue missions. They are the most important life support system for firefighters in the face of extreme hazards such as high-temperature flames, high-temperature heat radiation, chemicals, and sharp object collisions, rather than ordinary work clothes. The core definition includes the following elements:
Forest Firefighting Suit Specifications 1. Clothing Fabric Material and Performance The fabric is made of permanently flame-retardant aramid fiber grid cloth, featuring anti-static, waterproof, and flame-retardant properties. Its performance indicators are as follows: Fabric weight: ≤202g/m² Flame retardancy: Afterflame time ≤1s; Afterglow time <1s; Damage length (radial ≤14mm, weft <12mm) Mechanical strength: Tensile strength (warp >3000N, weft >3600N); Tear strength (warp >730N, weft >820N) Thermal performance: Thermal protection coefficient (TPP) >714(kw·s/m²); Thermal stability dimensional change rate ≤1% Color fastness: Light resistance >Grade 4; Washing (color change/staining) >Grade 4-5; Water resistance (color change/staining) >Grade 4-5; Perspiration resistance (color change/staining) Grade 4-5; Wet rubbing >Grade 4; Dry rubbing >Grade 4 Dimensional stability: Dimensional change rate after 50 washes (warp ≤±0.6%, weft ≤±0.4%) Safety indicators: Fabric formaldehyde content ≤0; pH value 4.0-6.3 2. Reflective Strip Performance (Reflective & Flame Retardant) Flame retardancy of reflective tape: Afterflame time ≤0.4s; Afterglow time ≤0s; Damage length <38mm; No melting or dripping Thermal stability of reflective tape: No surface carbonization or peeling after exposure to 260°C high temperature for 5 minutes 3.
