The flame resistance rating, such as ATPV (Arc Thermal Performance Value) and CAT (Category), indicates the level of protection fire resistant work pants provide against arc flash and fire hazards. Higher ratings offer more protection, making them essential for high-risk environments. For example, pants with an ATPV of 18 and CAT2, like the Reed Flame Resistant Jeans, provide excellent protection. In contrast, pants with lower ratings, like the Flame Resistant Oasis Pants by Reed with an ATPV of 6.5, are suitable for less hazardous conditions. A variety of ratings ensures you can choose the right level of protection for your specific needs.
