Ladies Crew Neck Tee

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

A women's FR (flame-resistant) crew neck t-shirt is workwear that resists ignition and self-extinguishes, so it doesn't keep burning or melt onto skin. Women working in electrical utilities, oil and gas, welding, refineries, and industrial plants commonly wear it. Forge FR's women's crew neck tee is built for these environments.

Yes. Forge FR's women's crew neck t-shirt is UL certified to NFPA 2112 (2023 edition), the US standard for flash fire protection. It also meets NFPA 70E PPE requirements and ASTM F1506, the specification for arc-rated textiles. The style number is LFRCNT-001.

ATPV 11 cal/cm² is the arc energy at which there is a 50% chance of a second-degree burn through the fabric. HRC/Category 2 requires at least 8 cal/cm², so this tee exceeds it. Whether it's enough depends on your site's arc flash risk assessment under NFPA 70E, so confirm with your safety officer.

It can be worn as a standalone layer where your hazard assessment allows short sleeves. Short sleeves cover only the torso and upper arms, so for tasks needing full-arm protection, layer it under an FR long-sleeve shirt. Avoid synthetic layers like polyester or nylon underneath, because they can melt onto skin.

It's a 6.5 oz, 100% cotton FR knit with aramid sewing thread. The ribbed collar and cuffs help it keep its shape, and inseam construction allows a full range of motion. Its lightweight fabric is designed for all-day wear, and one customer review calls it breathable enough for long shifts.

Follow the garment's care label. In general, avoid chlorine bleach and fabric softener, because they can degrade flame-resistant fibers and reduce protection over time. Inspect the shirt regularly and replace it if you see holes, thin spots, or damage. NFPA 2113 covers FR clothing care and maintenance.

It comes in sizes S to 3XL and multiple colors, including black, navy, grey, burgundy, purple, khaki, hot pink, and teal. Availability varies, so check each product page. Use the size guide, which lists half-chest measurements from 18.1 in (S) to 24.6 in (XXL), and measure a shirt that fits you well.
