Product Manual

Tychem® garments are designed for limited use. It is the responsibility of the wearer to inspect garments
periodically to ensure that all components, including fabric, valves, visors, gloves, zippers, seams, and
interfaces are in good working condition, and provide adequate protection for the operation and chemicals
to be encountered. Failure to fully inspect garments may result in serious injury or death to the wearer.
Never wear garments that have not been fully inspected and in the case of gas-tight garments, pressure
tested prior to use. Any garment which does not pass inspection should be removed from service
immediately. Never wear a garment that is contaminated, altered or damaged.
If the Tychem® garment is altered, abraded, cut, torn, punctured or otherwise and in any way breached, do
not use. The chemical protective garment material has finite resistance to abrasion, cut, tear and puncture.
If the Tychem® garment is damaged during use, retreat immediately to a safe environment, thoroughly
decontaminate the garment, then dispose of it in a safe manner.
These Tychem® garments have attached socks made of the garment material. These attached socks must
be worn inside protective outer footwear and are not suitable as outer footwear. These attached socks do
not have adequate durability or slip resistance to be worn as the outer foot covering.
During the packing, shipping and/or unpacking processes of some select garments styles with attached
gloves, it is possible that the gloves can become dislodged from the cuff. Remember to always perform the
routine product inspection before use of any product.
It is the responsibility of the garment wearer, and the wearer’s supervisor and employer to examine the
condition of the garment before and during use to be sure that the garment is suitable for use in that
environment by that employee.
