Viking's new triple-layered hoods help protect your neck, ears and jaw area from dangerous particles. Between layers of comfortable viscose, we have added a paper-thin layer of DuPont Nomex Nano Flex, which acts as a protective barrier against particles without compromising comfort. Thinner and lighter than other FR materials, it's a highly breathable, flame-resistant (FR) material with superior particle barrier performance. Combining comfort and protection The addition of DuPont Nomex Nano Flex to a firefighter hood composite structure provides improved particle barrier protection in the neckline and upper jaw area that historically are known to be the most vulnerable and least protected.
