Outer Shell | TenCate Protective Fabrics
Flex7® Powered by PBI® combines PBI® and para-aramid fibers with TenCate Protective Fabrics' ENFORCE™ Technology and a flexible twill construction. The result is a durable structural firefighting outer shell designed to deliver a soft, broken-in feel and freedom of movement from the first wear.
Flex7® is engineered to balance thermal stability, durability, and mobility in a lightweight outer shell designed for structural firefighting protective clothing.
Flex Twill construction provides a soft, broken-in feel designed to support comfort and range of motion without waiting for the garment to soften through repeated use.
TenCate's ENFORCE™ Technology is engineered to increase fabric strength and abrasion resistance while supporting a lightweight, flexible construction.
The fiber system combines PBI® with high-strength para-aramid fibers to support thermal stability, strength, and durability in demanding environments.
