FAQ

FAQ — Safety Vest 120GSM High Visibility

1. What does “120GSM” mean in the Safety Vest?

“120 GSM” refers to the weight of the fabric: 120 grams per square metre. It indicates a medium-weight polyester that balances durability and breathability. Lighter vests may be less durable; heavier vests may be hotter. SSK’s R-Power vest uses 120GSM polyester mesh. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

2. What materials are used in this 120GSM High Visibility vest?

The vest is made from 120GSM polyester mesh fabric, with high-visibility fluorescent colouring and reflective tape/strips. Some versions include solid panels, pocket(s), and a zipper closure. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

3. What safety standards does it meet?

SSK’s R-Power 120GSM High Visibility Safety Vest R3102 is designed with reflective strips for enhanced visibility in low-light conditions, likely meeting regional high-visibility garment norms. For example, ANSI/ISEA or similar may be applicable depending on jurisdiction. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

4. How should the vest be cleaned and maintained?

Hand wash with mild detergent, air dry, avoid harsh chemicals or bleach. Avoid direct sunlight for long periods to prevent fading. Inspect reflective strips and zipper or Velcro closures for wear. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

5. What are the advantages of using 120GSM over lighter vests (80GSM, net etc.)?

120GSM provides more durability, better wear resistance, and longer lifespan. It tends to be more rugged against tears, fraying or abrasion. Still breathable enough for fairly hot climates, especially if mesh or partially mesh is used. It’s a good middle ground between very lightweight and heavy duty. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

6. When should this vest be replaced?

Replace when fabric is significantly worn (tears, frays), when reflective strips lose their reflectivity or detach, or if closures (zipper/Velcro) no longer function securely. Also if colour fades to the point visibility is compromised. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

7. What sizing and fit considerations should I be aware of?

Ensure vest fits over work clothing; free-size or multiple sizes (S-4XL etc.) are common. Zipper or Velcro closures help secure the vest. Reflective tape placement (front, back, shoulders) should remain unobstructed by accessories or clothing. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
