Regarding workplace safety, FR Shirts are more than just clothing – they’re your first defense against arc flash, flash fire, and high-heat hazards. At Hi Vis Kings, we offer a premium selection of FR Shirts designed for comfort, durability, and compliance with the highest safety standards.
Whether you need FR long sleeve shirts for maximum coverage or lightweight FR shirts for hot weather, you’ll find the right gear to keep you safe and visible on the job.
Why Choose an FR Shirt?
An FR (flame-resistant) shirt is made from specialized fabrics that self-extinguish when exposed to open flames or electrical arcs, reducing burn injury risks. Our shirts meet or exceed NFPA 2112 and NFPA 70E safety requirements and carry CAT (Category) ratings for arc protection. The right FR Shirt can make all the difference from oil fields to electrical work sites.

FR Shirts – Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is an FR Shirt?
An FR Shirt is a flame-resistant work shirt that protects you from arc flash, flash fire, and other thermal hazards. Made from specialized fabrics like modacrylic, Nomex®, or treated cotton, these shirts meet NFPA 2112 and NFPA 70E safety standards to help reduce burn injuries.
2. Are FR Shirts the same as fireproof shirts?
No. FR Shirts are flame-resistant, meaning they self-extinguish when exposed to flames or sparks. They are not completely fireproof but are designed to limit fire spread and minimize burn risks in hazardous work environments.
3. What industries use FR Shirts?
FR Shirts for men and women are used in electrical utilities, oil and gas, welding, construction, and chemical processing. Hi-visibility FR shirts and high-visibility FR shirts are popular in roadwork and rail operations where both flame resistance and visibility are essential.
4. What is the difference between FR long sleeve shirts and lightweight FR shirts?
FR long sleeve shirts offer maximum coverage, making them ideal for welding, pipeline, and utility work. Lightweight FR shirts are designed for hot or humid environments, providing the same flame-resistant protection with breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics.
5. Are Carhartt FR Shirts OSHA compliant?
Yes. Carhartt FR Shirts and other top brands sold at Hi Vis Kings meet or exceed OSHA safety requirements and NFPA 2112 and NFPA 70E standards for flame-resistant clothing.
6. How do I wash and care for my FR Shirt?
Wash FR Shirts in warm water with a mild detergent to maintain flame resistance. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and starch, as these can reduce the shirt’s protective properties. Always follow the manufacturer’s care label.
7. What sizes and fits are available?
We carry FR Shirts in various sizes, from standard to big and tall, ensuring a comfortable fit for every worker. Styles include button-down, pullover, and utility designs.
