Fristads Flamestat Long Sleeve T-Shirt 7026, Black, Class 1
The Fristads Flamestat 7026 is a long-sleeved, round-neck flame-retardant T-shirt approved to EN 61482-1-2 Class 1 for protection against the thermal hazards of an electric arc. It works as a base or mid layer for authorised persons, utility engineers and maintenance staff in substations and switchrooms where arc-rated clothing forms part of the safe system of work.
Standards and Certification
The garment is approved to EN 61482-1-2 Class 1 (box test). According to the manufacturer datasheet, certified garment combinations can achieve EN 61482-1-2 Class 2, with open-arc testing to EN 61482-1-1 covered in the Fristads electric arc table. It also carries EN ISO 11612 A1 B1 C1 for heat and flame, EN 1149-5 for electrostatic properties, and OEKO-TEX certification. Unsure how box-test classes relate to the incident energy on your switchroom labels? Our arc flash information section explains the basics.

Where It Fits in Your PPE
- Long sleeves and a round neck give full upper-body coverage under an arc-rated jacket or coverall.
- The modacrylic and cotton blend stays light and comfortable all day, which matters when compliance depends on people actually keeping their PPE on.
- EN 1149-5 electrostatic certification suits ATEX-aware environments as well as electrical switchrooms.
- Layer it with garments from our wider arc flash protection range to build a certified combination for higher box-test classes.
Arc-rated clothing only performs as certified if it is worn and laundered correctly. Follow the manufacturer care instructions and retire garments that are contaminated, damaged or repaired with non-FR thread.
FAQs
Is the Flamestat 7026 enough on its own for switching work?
That depends on the incident energy at the point of work, which your arc flash study or risk assessment should define. The 7026 is approved to EN 61482-1-2 Class 1 on its own. Higher-risk tasks typically call for certified garment combinations or a switching suit. Check your site assessment before specifying.
What sizes does the 7026 come in?
The datasheet lists sizes XS to 4XL in colour 940 Black. Fristads note that available sizes may vary between colours, so if you need a different colourway, confirm the size range with us before ordering.
