Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does 'FR' mean for Lapco Modern Jeans, and what should I confirm before buying?

A: FR stands for Flame Resistant, meaning the denim is treated to self-extinguish upon removal from an ignition source. Before buying, confirm the jeans carry the UL Classification for NFPA 2112 (flash fire) and meet the required ATPV rating for your specific hazard risk category (usually CAT 2).

Q: How do I choose Lapco FR jeans for arc flash vs. flash fire environments?

A: Most Lapco FR Modern Jeans are dual-certified, covering both hazards. For arc flash, ensure the ATPV rating meets your site's requirements (typically >8 cal/cm² for HRC/CAT 2). For flash fire, verify the NFPA 2112 label is present.

Q: What fit should I choose if I climb, kneel, or wear boots all day?

A: If your job involves frequent climbing or kneeling, the 'Comfort Flex' options are ideal as they include spandex for stretch. For those wearing heavy work boots, the 'Modern Fit' is designed with a boot-cut leg opening to stack comfortably over footwear.

Q: Do all Lapco FR jeans in this collection meet NFPA 70E?

A: Many do, but ratings vary by specific fabric weight and blend. Most items in this collection are rated CAT 2 and are compliant with NFPA 70E standards for electrical safety in the workplace. Always check the individual product label for the specific ATPV rating.
