The retardant coating breaks down after repeated washing, quietly reducing protection over time.
FR properties are built into the fabric itself, not applied as a surface treatment.
Undocumented layering can quietly reduce the protection a pant is rated for.

What does CAT 2, ATPV 8.7 cal/cm² mean for FR pants?
CAT 2 refers to the arc-rated protection category, and ATPV (Arc Thermal Performance Value) is the measured amount of incident energy a fabric can withstand before there's a 50% probability of a second-degree burn. An ATPV of 8.7 cal/cm² is the tested rating for Salus Wear's FR pants.
What's the difference between the FR pant and the FR cargo pant?
Both carry the same CAT 2, ATPV 8.7 cal/cm² rating and self-extinguishing fabric. The FR cargo pant adds a cargo pocket layout for crews who need to carry tools or small gear on the job; the straight-leg FR pant offers a standard fit for layering under coveralls or jackets
Are Salus Wear FR pants suitable for electrical work?
Yes. The CAT 2, ATPV 8.7 cal/cm² rating is the type of arc-rated protection referenced for work around electrical hazards, alongside FR shirts rated to the same standard.
How do FR pants differ from flame-retardant-treated pants?
Genuine FR fabric is flame resistant as part of the fiber itself, so the protection doesn't wash out. Flame-retardant-treated pants rely on a surface coating that can degrade with repeated laundering, gradually reducing effectiveness.
Can I order FR pants in bulk for a crew or company program?
Yes. Procurement teams and safety managers can request a bulk quote for multi-crew orders, new-hire gear packs, or seasonal restocking with consistent sizing across both fits.
How should FR pants be washed to maintain protection?
Follow the care instructions on the garment label. Because Salus Wear FR fabric is flame resistant by construction rather than by topical treatment, normal industrial laundering does not strip the protective rating the way it can with treated fabrics.
