The standard harness is constructed of nylon webbing, nylon straps and Acetal buckles; and, the standard harness will not stand up to direct open flames or high radiant heat due to the properties of the materials of construction. The fire-rated harness is constructed of Nomex ® and Kevlar ® webbing and straps with metal buckles and will withstand exposure to direct open flames and high radiant heat. The fire-rated harness also provides additional features of color-coded strap identification, increased adjustment features and better comfort as compared to the standard harness. Finally, due to the materials of construction, the fire-rated harness will also be of superior strength as compared to the standard harness.
