Product Review

The DuPont Tyvek TY127S hooded coverall features an attached respirator-fit hood with elastic around face opening designed to cover neck and chin and fit around respirator face mask, and serged seam. Longer zipper extends to chin for complete coverage of neck area. Elastic openings for tighter fit at wrist and at ankle. Comfort fit design based on extensive wearer input to provide our most comfortable garment design that enables a greater range of movement while stretching and bending, provides a more tailored fit, offers reinforcement in high stress areas for fewer blowouts, utilizes a longer zipper for easier donning and doffing and an elastic waist to better position the garment. Tyvek garments are composed of flash spun high density polyethylene which creates a unique, nonwoven material available only from DuPont. Tyvek provides an ideal balance of protection, durability and comfort of any limited use fabric technology. Tyvek fabric offers an inherent barrier to particles down to 1 micron in size. Protection is built into the fabric itself; there are no films or laminates to abrade or wear away. Tyvek fabric's durability advantage over microporous film and SMS fabrics delivers consistently better barrier, even after wear and abrasion. Applications include lead and asbestos abatement/remediation, general maintenance/operations, spray painting, general clean-up.
