DEWALT DSV971-3X Class 2 Modacrylic FR Vest: Built for Arc Safety
The DEWALT DSV971-3X Class 2 Modacrylic FR Hi-Vis Vest is a flame-resistant safety layer built for professionals who need arc protection without overheating. With a 5.1 cal/cm² arc rating, this vest meets ASTM F1506 requirements and is suited for electricians, utility linemen, and industrial crews working near energized equipment.
Protection and Compliance
The breathable modacrylic mesh keeps you cooler on hot days, while the Class 2 hi-vis design and 2" segmented reflective tape ensure you stay visible on roadways and busy work sites. Two front pockets keep gloves, tools, or your phone within reach; two mic tabs secure radio and speaker mic cables. The hook-and-loop front closure makes it easy to layer over an FR shirt or sweatshirt.
3X-Large Fit for Layering
This 3X-Large vest offers generous room for layering, and the segmented reflective tape allows better airflow and flexibility than solid tape. The flame-resistant materials self-extinguish when the ignition source is removed, giving you an extra line of defense on the job.

Product Details
Understanding Arc Ratings
An arc rating of 5.1 cal/cm² tells you how much heat energy the fabric can block during an arc flash. For many utility and electrical tasks, this level meets the minimum required by NFPA 70E for daily wear. Always check your employer's hazard assessment to confirm the correct arc rating for your specific tasks.
Pairing with Other FR Layers
Wear this vest over an FR long-sleeve shirt rated to the same or higher arc rating for complete upper-body protection. The hook-and-loop front and generous 3X-Large fit allow room for a hooded sweatshirt or sweater underneath without restricting movement.
Fit and Comfort
The mesh back and segmented tape improve breathability, so you stay cooler when bending, lifting, and moving. The two mic tabs keep earpiece cords organized, and the pockets are positioned low enough not to interfere with a tool belt.

Finally a fit
Finally a hi-vis vest that fits. I'm 6'4" and the 3X is actually roomy. The flame resistant material feels solid. It has enough room for layers underneath. The zipper is heavy duty. Good value for the price.
