Chicago Protective 601-AKV Aluminized Kevlar® 40" Heat Protection Coat

The Chicago Protective 601-AKV aluminized Kevlar® coat delivers extended radiant heat protection for extreme industrial environments. Designed with a high-performance aluminized outer surface bonded to durable Kevlar® fiber, this 40-inch heat-resistant coat reflects intense radiant heat while maintaining exceptional strength and durability.

Engineered for foundries, steel mills, glass plants, and high-temperature processing facilities, the 601-AKV provides superior upper-body and thigh protection where radiant heat exposure is constant.

Extended Radiant Heat Protection

The 601-AKV is built for environments where workers face continuous radiant heat from molten metal, furnaces, or hot processing equipment.

• Aluminized outer layer reflects radiant heat energy

• Kevlar® para-aramid base fabric for strength and durability

• 40-inch length for increased torso and upper-leg coverage

• Industrial-grade construction for harsh thermal environments

• Designed for integration with full aluminized PPE systems

The aluminized surface acts as a thermal shield, significantly reducing heat absorption and improving worker safety.
