The BSD Arc Resistant Belt is an arc resistant, anti-static work belt for electrical workers wearing arc flash PPE. Permanently elastic with a non-metallic clamp buckle, it is available in black in lengths from 90 cm to 130 cm, suiting substation, switchroom and industrial electrical work.
BSD Arc Resistant Belt
The BSD Arc Resistant Belt is a simple bit of kit that solves a real problem in arc flash workwear: ordinary belts with metal buckles and non-rated webbing have no place inside an arc-rated clothing system. This belt is arc resistant and anti-static, permanently elastic for a secure fit, and uses a non-metallic clamp buckle that can be micro adjusted to the wearer. It forms part of the wider arc flash protection range we supply to Irish substation and switchroom personnel.

Where It Fits in Your PPE
Arc-rated clothing only protects as a system. Trousers held up by a leather belt with a steel buckle introduce an ignition and melting point hazard at the waistline, exactly where a switching suit or coverall should be doing the work. Because the buckle is non-metallic, the belt is also airport security friendly, which matters for travelling maintenance teams. Pair it with garments from our arc flash accessories range, and if you are building a PPE specification from scratch, our guide on what arc flash is is a sensible starting point.
FAQs
What sizes does the BSD Arc Resistant Belt come in?
The belt is available in five lengths: 90 cm, 100 cm, 110 cm, 120 cm and 130 cm. The clamp buckle allows micro adjustment within each length, so you can fine tune the fit over base layers or winter workwear.
Is the buckle metal free?
Yes. The belt uses a non-metallic clamp buckle, so there is no exposed metal at the waistline and it can be worn through airport security screening. This suits electrical workers who travel between sites.
Can this belt be worn with arc-rated coveralls and switching suits?
Yes, it is designed as part of an arc flash workwear system. It is arc resistant, anti-static and flame retardant, so it does not introduce a non-rated component into your PPE. Always match the full clothing system to the incident energy on your arc flash label.
