Aluminized clothing has a wide range of applications in the industrial setting, especially where such hazards as high heat or molten metal exist. Along with the ability to reflect 95% of radiant heat, aluminized fabrics reduce the flow of ambient heat by 50% versus non aluminized fabric. Aluminized clothing helps shed both ferrous and non ferrous molten metals.

A WORD OF CAUTION:

DO NOT CONFUSE AMBIENT, CONDUCTIVE AND RADIANT HEAT!

The following definitions are given as a reference as well as vital assistance in selecting the proper clothing for heat protection:

Ambient Heat is the surrounding atmospheric temperature in a given situation. Examples: 65-70*F in an office; 2000*F in a fire walk.

Conductive Heat is generated by direct contact with a hot surface. Examples: picking up a burner block at 600*F, leaning against a furnace wall at 1000*F.

Radiant Heat is generated by the sun or a source of fire, such as a fireplace or furnace, and is absorbed by masses of material struck by the heat’s rays. (This is why it is cooler in the shade on a hot day.)
