PULSAR XARC14 Electric ARC Balaclava

Designed for professionals facing arc flash, heat, and sparks, the PULSAR XARC14 Balaclava delivers inherently flame-retardant protection with a comfortable, form-fitting build that teammates will trust under helmets and PPE.

• Fabric and weight: Protal 1 FR fabric at 220 g/m², woven from 60% Protex, 38% cotton, and 2% antistatic fibres for durable protection with breathable comfort.
• Inherent FR protection: Flame-retardant performance built into the fiber—no chemical treatments—ensuring long-lasting protection through repeated wear and wash cycles.
• Arc-rated protection: EBT 8.6 cal/cm² with APC 1, meeting industry standards for electric arc exposure and helping reduce injury risk in high-energy environments.
• Standards compliance: EN ISO 11612:2015 A1 B1 C1 for heat and flame resistance; EN 1149-5:2018 for reliable anti-static performance.
• Design details: Red contrast FR aramid thread and visible FR standards transfer enhance visibility of protective credentials at a glance.
• Fit and compatibility: Ergonomic balaclava design that layers smoothly under hard hats, hoods, and other PPE without adding bulk.

The XARC14 is engineered to minimize the risk of ignition and static buildup in demanding workflows, such as welding, metal stamping, electrical work, and other high-heat or arc-prone applications. Its inherently FR fabric maintains protection across shifts, while the anti-static fibers help manage charge in conductive environments. With clear FR-thread accents and easily verifiable standards, you’ll know you’re protected at a glance.
