Why Choose DuPont Tyvek 400 FC Shoe Covers?

Standard disposable shoe covers can provide useful contamination and particle control, but some workplaces also require additional traction underfoot.

The FC450SGY addresses both needs.

Its Tyvek 400 upper provides lightweight particle and light-splash protection, while the friction-coated Tyvek 400 FC sole adds slip resistance for improved footing on appropriate work surfaces.

This makes the FC450SGY especially useful in environments where workers need to temporarily cover their footwear while performing maintenance, painting, cleanup, remediation, or other jobs that may generate dust, dirt, overspray, or light liquid exposure.

The elastic opening also makes the covers easy to put on while helping them remain positioned during normal movement.

Tyvek® 400 FC Friction-Coated Sole

The defining feature of the FC450SGY is its Tyvek 400 FC skid-resistant sole.

Tyvek 400 FC combines Tyvek protective material with a friction coating designed to provide additional traction. This material is used specifically for protective shoe covers, boot covers, and selected protective garments with integrated footwear coverage.

Compared with a standard Tyvek sole, the friction-coated surface is designed to offer better slip resistance.

Actual traction will vary depending on floor material, surface contamination, wear, moisture, and workplace conditions. Footwear and protective shoe covers should always be selected according to the site's hazard assessment.

Fine Particle & Light Splash Protection

The FC450SGY provides protection against fine particles and light liquid splash.

This makes the shoe cover useful for many tasks involving:

• Dust
• Dirt
• Overspray
• Dry particulates
• Light liquid splash
• General contamination control

The shoe cover provides partial-body protection only. Additional PPE should be selected based on the hazards present in the specific application.

Elastic Opening & Serged Seams

The FC450SGY features an elastic opening around the top of the shoe cover.

This helps:

• Hold the cover securely over footwear
• Improve fit
• Simplify donning and removal
• Reduce unnecessary movement during work

The shoe cover also uses serged seams for dependable construction throughout the toe, heel, and sole areas.
