That's why it's important for Sylprotec to propose you this high-visibility 300 Denier Polyurethane-coated polyester oxford “The Rock” coat. 

First of all, to be effective, high-visibility safety clothing must fit snugly and not float around the body. Clothing that's too large can get caught in machinery or equipment, while clothing that's too small can restrict freedom of movement and cause discomfort. 

Thanks to its advanced technology, it offers exceptional waterproofing and breathability, keeping you dry and comfortable, no matter how intense the rain. With its quality materials, the Pioneer® coat combines style and functionality.

Don't wait any longer, equip yourself to face the elements with confidence.

Design :
It's made from polyester woven to oxford gauge with 300 Denier yarn and a polyurethane coating, guaranteeing waterproofing and wind resistance. Complies with ANSI/ISEA 107-20-2020 class 3 type and R standards as well as CSA Z96-2022 class 2 level 2.

This garment boasts superior anti-tear and anti-abrasion properties, as well as a half-mesh back for improved ventilation and comfort. It features 2 lower pockets with flaps and a foldaway hood inside the collar. Its ample cut and back ventilation slot will keep you comfortable while you work. This coat features a nylon front zipper with snap flap and retroreflective tape on the front, side, back and arms.

This polyester oxford coat, laminated with polyurethane on the inside, is made from 300-denier yarns. In simpler terms, this is a medium-weight coat: light enough to offer comfort and heavy enough to provide adequate protection. By definition, 300 denier expresses the weight of 9,000 m of the yarn used, so 300 denier equals 300 g. The manufacturer is unable to provide the thickness of the polyurethane lamination.

The term oxford refers to the type of weave. Oxford is widely used in industry, notably for the manufacture of shirts, coats, bags and so on. Oxford weave is obtained by crossing a weft thread (horizontal thread) and a warp thread (vertical thread) to create its characteristic check pattern.

Water resistance:
Polyurethane-lined waterproof safety wear is usually worn by workers who may be exposed to remote risks of chemical splashes. Polyurethane is lightweight and porous; it’s thus ideal to manufacture light and breathable workwear. The manufacturer is unable to provide information on these rain jacket resistance to hydrostatic pressure. Upon examination and comparison to similar products, we assume that they can withhold a hydrostatic pressure of about 5,000 mm, i.e. they can withstand the pressure of a 5 m water column.

A waterproof rating is granted when a material has been tested under the pressure of a cylinder filled with water, in this case, 5 m high of water. This height defines the limit at which the material stops being resistant and water starts passing through. PU is lightweight and porous; it’s thus ideal to manufacture light and breathable workwear. Yet, during heavy rains and windstorms, PU tends to get waterlogged and lose all its water-resistant property. Once waterlogged, polyurethane allows water to penetrate inside the pants under the slightest pressure, such as when bending over or leaning against something.

We recommend wearing this coat with overalls (VP5629).

About its classification:

CSA Z96-22 class 2 level 2: High-visibility safety clothing for workers operating in close proximity to road traffic with a maximum speed of 80 km/h. Low to moderate risk.

Fluorescent yellow (lime green) is highly visible during the day and in conditions with little natural light, such as dawn and dusk. In most situations, it also offers high contrast with the background. Being paler than orange, fluorescent yellow is more visible at night, though not as visible in the dark as reflective stripes.

Silver retroreflective stripes are highly visible in natural or artificial low-light conditions, as they reflect light back towards the source of the light beam (flashlight, car headlights, etc.). They therefore offer the greatest safety at dawn, dusk and at night. However, they do not increase visibility during the day.

Complies with CSA Z96-22 class 2 level 2: This class is intended for workers in LOW or MODERATE RISK areas, who require greater visibility in poor weather conditions or low light levels. If the pants (VP5629) are used in combination with the complementary jacket (VP5628), the set increases to class 3 level 2. This increases the compliance range in the presence of vehicles with higher speeds.

Compliant with ANSI/ISEA 107-2020 class E is an American standard that applies to workers on roads or in areas where there are a lot of moving vehicles and equipment. Class 2 type E is a VSHV category that must have enough brightly colored fabric and light-reflecting stripes to make you clearly visible. The brightly colored fabric can be yellow-green, orange-red or red, and may or may not be fluorescent.  

Type E refers to a type of high-visibility safety garment which, when worn alone, does not meet the requirements of a single class. This is an important consideration for professionals who need maximum visibility in potentially hazardous working environments. If the jacket (VP5628) is used in combination with the complementary pants (VP5627), the ensemble increases to class R.

High-visibility safety clothing features light-reflecting reflective strips that can be seen from over 250 meters away to ensure your safety, and for Sylprotec this is essential.

Peculiarities of:
The waterproof, high-visibility "The Rock" jacket will keep you safe, dry and protected even in the toughest working conditions. The half-mesh back provides increased ventilation for greater comfort, while thermally sealed glued seams guarantee maximum waterproofing.

Restriction: 
This rain jacket does not provide protection against flames or electric arcs. Do not use bleach, iron or dry clean.

Maintenance and service life: 
Hand wash with cold water and mild detergent, without using bleach, fabric softener or dryer. Wash inside out to reduce abrasion and streaking.
