280360002 - Miller Techno Lite FR Welding Vest - Navy Medium

Premium Flame-Resistant Protection for Industrial Environments

The Miller Techno Lite Unlined Vest in Classic Navy (Size Medium) represents a sophisticated approach to personal protective equipment (PPE). Designed for professionals who require flame resistance without the bulk and heat retention of traditional leather garments, this vest is engineered from a specialized 9 oz. fabric blend. The composition of 88% cotton and 12% high-tenacity nylon ensures that the garment remains comfortable and breathable while providing robust protection against heat and incidental flame exposure. This specific blend is renowned in the industry for its ability to maintain flame-resistant properties throughout the entire life of the garment, regardless of wash cycles, making it a cost-effective long-term investment for safety managers and individual technicians alike.

Compliance and safety standards are at the forefront of the Techno Lite design. This vest meets or exceeds critical industry benchmarks, including ASTM F1506, NFPA 70E, and OSHA 1910.269. These certifications validate its performance in environments where arc flash and flash fire hazards are present. The vest features an Arc Thermal Performance Value (ATPV) that provides a quantified level of protection, giving users confidence in their safety gear. The construction utilizes Nomex thread, a high-temperature resistant aramid fiber, ensuring that the seams maintain their integrity even under thermal stress. A heavy-duty zipper further enhances durability, ensuring reliable closure in rugged work conditions.

Functionally, the unlined nature of this vest makes it an ideal choice for warmer climates or indoor facilities where heat stress is a concern. It allows for excellent freedom of movement, particularly for the arms, which is essential for precision tasks in welding, maintenance, and fabrication. The inclusion of an inside pocket provides a secure location for small tools, markers, or personal items, keeping them protected from sparks and debris. The pre-shrunk fabric technology guarantees that the fit remains true to size (Medium) over time, eliminating the common issue of PPE becoming ill-fitting after laundering. For industrial applications requiring a balance of safety, durability, and comfort, the Miller Techno Lite Vest is a superior choice.
