Counterfit FR clothing

[zog]

Yep, the arc flash PPE market is being flooded with counterfit FR clothing and is becoming an issue. Most of it is imported from outside the US. One way to know is to check for the F1506 label and look for an ATPV rating, most of the counterfit stuff found had not had this tag. Also a red flag is clothing that says "HRC 2" on it with patches.

Thanks for the heads up Zog. Any way to make a buck even if it risks harm or death to somebody.
