The CAT (Category) rating indicates the level of protection against electrical arc flash hazards, with higher numbers signifying greater protection. For lab coats, a CAT rating of 2 is typically sufficient for most laboratory environments. Both the Flame Resistant Lab Coat, Khaki J88FU7 and the Flame Resistant Lab Coat, Navy J81FU7 feature a CAT 2 rating, providing robust protection. For environments with lower risk, a CAT 1 rating like that of the Bulwark KEL2LB FR Lab Coat could be appropriate. Various options ensure you can find the right level of protection for your specific needs.
