While the Airman Battle Uniform (ABU) has been in use for several years already, it will officially replace the Desert Combat Uniform (DCU) and Battle Dress Uniform (BDU) as the combat uniform of the United States Air Force on November 1st, 2011. If you’re still wearing BDUs or DCUs, it’s time to get your ABU orders in; there is currently no backorder on ABU components, but that may change very quickly as the due date approaches.

The following are required components of the Airman Battle Uniform:

ABU Coat (Shirt). The ABU Coat must be made of 50% nylon/50% cotton material, with button fastenings and Air Force digitized tiger stripe print. Rank insignia for officers is on the collar on the left side; rank insignia for enlisted personnel is on the sleeves, centered on the outer arm halfway between the elbow and shoulder seam. Name tapes will be worn immediately above the upper ABU pocket on the wearer’s right; the ‘US Air Force’ service tape will be worn on the upper ABU pocket on the wearer’s left. Up to two relevant chaplain, aeronautical, space, cyberspace, and/or occupational badges are authorized for wear above the US Air Force tape, the first centered 1/2 inch above the tape, the second 1/2 inch above the first. Duty Shields for members of the Office of Special Investigations, Security Forces, or Fire Protection, as well and Missile Badges (where authorized) are centered between the bottom of the pocket flap, bottom of the pocket, and left and right edges on the ABU coat’s left pocket only, and are the only items authorized for placement in this location.

T-Shirt - Desert Sand (Tan). A desert sand T-shirt will be worn under the ABU coat and tucked into the trousers; it may be replaced by a desert sand turtleneck. Installation commanders may prescribe a unit designation and cloth or silkscreen emblem to be worn on the left side of the chest not to exceed 5 inches in diameter. Pockets are not allowed, and gender-appropriate undergarments are required to be worn with all uniform combinations.

ABU Trousers. The ABU trousers must be made of 50% nylon, 50% cotton, with button fastenings and Air Force digitized tiger stripe print. The waistband must rest on the Airman’s waist, and the trouser must present an evenly bloused appearance. If not bloused, the straps must be removed and the trousers must be allowed to hang naturally to ankle length.

Belt - Desert Sand (Tan). The ABU Belt must be a one-piece rigger-style nylon web belt, 1 3/4″ in width, and must be worn with the ABU trousers.

Combat Boots - Sage Green. The Sage Green Combat Boots must be worn with the Airman Battle Uniform; these boots must be lace-up with plain or capped rounded toe with or without a perforated seam. Zippers and elastic inserts may be included, if they do not have a design or logo. These combat boots may include a safety toe at the wearer’s option. Exceptions: Commanders may temporarily authorize the use of black leather boots with ABUs in industrial work environments or work centers where industrial products or processes cause irreparable staining to the sage green suede or tan suede boot, until a stain-resistant green boot becomes available. Theater Commanders may authorize tan combat boots for wear only in theaters of war.

Socks - Sage Green. As part of the Airman Battle Uniform, Airmen are required to wear sage green socks; plain white socks can be worn underneath the sage green socks as long as the white socks are not visible.

ABU Patrol Cap. Headgear is required when outdoors at all times unless in a designated no-hat zone. The typical requirement is the ABU Patrol Cap, made of 50% nylon/50% cotton with Air Force digitized tiger stripe print. Officers wear a subdued metal or cloth rank insignia centered on the front of this cap; enlisted personnel do not wear ranks on their caps. An installation commander may optionally approve usage of a sage green watch cap instead for use with ABU authorized outer garments.

All Purpose Environmental Clothing System (APECS). For outdoor use only as outerwear. APECS coats and APECS trousers use Air Force digitized tiger stripe print, and require a slip-on rank insignia to be worn on the rank tab. A sage green fleece liner may be worn under the APECS, as long as it is not visible.

Sage Green Fleece. The sage green fleece can be worn outdoors by itself with the Airman Battle Uniform, but must be removed when indoors (local commanders can allow indoor wear as mission needs dictate.) It can only be worn over the ABU coat. When worn as an outer garment, uniform regulations require a Velcro ABU print last name tape with dark blue block lettering centered between the zipper and sleeve seam on wearer’s right chest. Regulations also require a 2 inch squared Velcro subdued cloth rank insignia with solid sage green background (no ABU pattern on background) flushed and centered above the last name tape on the wearer’s right chest. A Velcro ABU print ‘US Air Force’ service tape with dark blue, block lettering will be placed even with the last name tape and centered between zipper and sleeve seam on wearer’s left chest.

The original document containing the Air Force Dress Regulations is available at http://www.e-publishing.af.mil/shared/media/epubs/afi36-2903.pdf without restrictions, so if you’re curious about what the 179-page document actually contains, you’re cleared to look it over yourself.

With temperatures soaring into triple digits, the hazards of the heat are numerous. Dehydration from oversweating means that workers must frequently drink water or electrolytes to rehydrate. Heat exhaustion and heatstroke can occur as body temperature rises due to the temperature. Heat rashes can form due to skin irritation from excesesive sweating. Heat cramps can cause muscle pains due to heavy exercise in hot weather. With all of these hazards from the heat, one might assume that a quick dip in very cold water or stepping into a walk-in freezer might be a good way to beat the heat. This is not as good an idea as it sounds.

While cool compresses and immersion in cool water are a good way to cool down quickly, one must be careful; too much of a temperature shift can cause a cold shock response, as veins abruptly constrict to retain body heat to prevent cold blood from reaching your heart. This can be very hazardous to your health, and can even cause organ failure and death in extreme cases.

So what can you do to beat the heat? First, make sure to drink plenty of water and consume more sodium than usual, as water and salts are drained from the body when you sweat. If your job requires working in the heat - for example, construction workers or warehouse crew - a cooler/dispenser with a push-button spigot, filled with ice and water or electrolyte drink made from powdered mix, can be every bit as vital a safety investment as a hard hat or a high-visibility vest. You may also want to invest in cooling vests and other heat stress gear to help keep you cool without causing extreme temperature shifts that can be hazardous.

Do you work in an industrial cooler or freezer? Don’t be tempted to skip your freezer wear just because it’s hot outside! Wear insulated gloves, freezer vests, and freezer boots when working in these icy environments, and remove them as soon as you leave. It may be tedious, but maintaining a consistent body temperature will ensure that you don’t suffer from shock when you go in or come out.

Maintaining your health in the heat can be a serious challenge. However, with the right work equipment to keep you cool, and adequate hydration to replenish what sweat takes away, you should be able to manage this summer, no matter what your workplace and the weather have to throw at you.

Someone recently asked me a question about our Humane Restraint items - how humane can a restraint really be? To answer that, you have to understand more about how restraint systems such as straitjackets, restraint chairs, and bed restraints are used.

First and foremost, physical restraints are used to ensure the safety of the people responsible for handling a potentially aggressive or agitated person, and the safety of the person themselves to prevent undue suffering or self-harm. As such, institutions, hospitals, and correctional facilities look for ways to restrain without inflicting harm or undue stress, while maintaining the level of safety and security needed. Restraints used for this purpose are made of heavy-duty leather, easy-care polyurethane, or compact nylon, providing a firm restraint that resists wear and tear while being far more comfortable to wear than metal.

One example of the use of humane restraint systems can be seen in hospitals and psychiatric institutions. In addition to lightweight gait belts, lap belts, and safety belts meant purely to prevent falls, buckling and locking restraints are available to accommodate aggressive patients. These can readily be combined with a restraint bed to provide an ideal platform for securing an individual in comfort and safety. Medical applications may require a secured position to prevent further injury after an accident or during care. For this purpose, non-locking restraints with control straps are used to secure an individual in place safely, often with interior foam padding or disposable fleece liners to provide additional comfort while maintaining a therapeutic state for recovery and safe transport. In this way, emergency medical personnel or hospitals can safely transport an individual without creating movement that may agitate or reopen existing injuries.

Police officers, jails, correctional facilities, and courthouses make use of humane restraint systems as well. While handcuffs are a common restraint mechanism, other restraint options are available. Locking restraints made of leather or polyurethane allow a prisoner to be secured in position in such a way as to minimize self-injury. For example, nylon control straps are used to secure the legs of a violent prisoner for transport, reducing squad car damage and personal injuries by restricting leg movement. Ambulatory restraint systems allow a prisoner’s hands and feet to be secured in a safe position to control movement without requiring behind-the-back cuffing that can result in long-term physical harm. Locking restraints made of leather or polyurethane allow a prisoner to be secured in position in such a way as to minimize self-injury. Transport belts are used with handcuffs to provide greater control over a detained subject, or with the included side cuffs to restrain an individual while keeping their hands separated for greater safety. Emergency restraint chairs provide a locking solution to secure aggressive or dangerous prisoners for transport in such a way as to prevent harm to themselves or others. Leg braces and locking weights allow for a discreet way to restrict the movement of would-be flight hazards during transport outside of a correctional facility, such as during a trial or prisoner transfer.

All of these solutions are designed to enhance the comfort of the restrained individual while still protecting the safety of those around them. For situations where confinement or restriction of movement is required either for medical or security reasons, our Humane Restraint products do exactly what they say - they restrain or restrict an individual from harming others or themselves without inflicting undue suffering or discomfort, and that is why I feel they are truly humane restraints.

Whether you’re serving active duty on the battlefield, walking a patrol on the streets, doing some hunting in the wilderness, or shooting on the competition circuit, your weapon of choice must be cared for and maintained frequently to ensure that it maintains its reliability and accuracy. As such, a cleaning kit - whether personally assembled or bought complete - is a vital part of one’s loadout kit, bug out bag, or personal care supplies. Otis Technology manufactures pre-assembled weapon cleaning kits for a variety of calibers and weapon types, such as their 9mm-.45 cal pistol/submachine gun cleaning kit, their 12 guage combat shotgun cleaning kit, and their 7.62mm rifle cleaning kit, all of which contain a Gerber Military Tool, optics cleaning gear, rods and swabs to clean the chamber and bore, obstruction removers to remove stuck cases and other bore obstructions, and scrapers, picks, and brushes for maintaining slide action and other crucial components. Each is packaged in a lightweight case with ALICE and MOLLE clips for ease of attachment to military equipment.

For those interested in supplementing their own cleaning kits or stockpiling replacement supplies at their base of operations, Atlanco Tru-Spec delivers with a variety of GI-spec gun cleaning accessories for proper firearm care. The 5.56 mm / .223 Remington round has served our nation’s military as well as sportsmen and huntsmen for decades, and is one of the most common rounds available; as such a bore brush, chamber brush, cleaning patches, or better, a complete cleaning kit should be a component of any owner’s arsenal.

If you’ve been traveling through a high-security area, you’ve likely seen military personnel, bomb squads, and security checkpoints using metal detectors and X-ray scanners, as well as something you may not recognize - a trace detector, a handheld device that can detect explosive compounds so that they can be neutralized before they can kill hundreds or thousands of people. But how does it work? To answer that question, we’re going to be taking a close look at the Scintrex E3500, the most commonly seen type of trace detection unit available on the market today.

The Scintrex E3500 is manufactured by Scintrex, the leading manufacturer of explosives and contraband detectors worldwide and a division of Control Screening, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of security checkpoint and detection equipment overall, and is remarkably easy to use. It uses Luminol Chemilux chemiluminescence technology to detect military, commercial, and homemade explosives compounds, whether liquid or powdered, while screening out weather and environmental interferences to sharply reduce the possibility of false positives or false negatives. You don’t need to be a forensics expert to operate the E3500 - once you’ve calibrated the device, you can simply press the button to perform a scan, with results reported to you in seconds on the unit’s LCD screen, with visible alerts if a hazard is detected. The device scans both by measuring vapors taken in through the
front of the unit, and by examining particulates ’swiped’ inside, allowing flexible scanning options depending on security needs.

Because the Scintrex E3500 uses Luminol Chemilux instead of radioactive isotopes, basic operation of the device requires no certificates or licenses, and the device manages to be incredibly rugged and self-contained while still maintaining a weight of less than six pounds. This basic change in the way trace detection systems function also sharply increases the accuracy of the unit, reducing false positives from environmental factors while detecting even nanogram traces of explosive compounds. A single battery charge allows the unit to operate for up to six hours uninterrupted, and its consumable components are minimal and typically only need to be replaced on a yearly basis. Furthermore, its durable design and unique sensitivity allows it to resist the effects of hostile environments (exhaust, humidity, rain, sand, aerosols, pollutants, and the like), making it a viable tool for real-world applications as opposed to a high-tech laboratory toy.

The Scintrex E3500 is no bigger or heavier than a housecat, yet it can reliably scan for explosives in luggage, mail, trucks, vehicles, clothing, electronic devices, backpacks, documents, and other containers, or practically anywhere that a swab or air sample can be taken. Its sensitivity and portability makes it, and devices like it, a vital component of security screening by military forces, law enforcement agents, customs officers, bomb squads, government facilities, security checkpoints, hotels, palaces, embassies, power plants, courtrooms, sporting events, and TSA officials at rail stations, airports, and seaports. Airport security might still be a nightmare, but with developments like these, the practical necessity for invasive personal searches will become a thing of the past as soon as reliable scanning technology is commonly adopted.

As you may be aware, employees working on or in close proximity to high-voltage electrical equipment are required to wear protective clothing, rated by hazard risk category. This personal protective equipment is required for compliance with OSHA and NFPA 70E standards, and can be cumbersome to wear. But is it really necessary?

In a word, yes. Anyone who has witnessed a lightning strike has ample evidence of the awesome and terrible power of an electrical arc, and even low levels of electrical current are enough to injure or kill an unprotected individual. Electrocutions in the workplace cause over four hundred deaths per year, and arc flash blasts can rival conventional explosives in their devastating effects on an area. An arc flash creates intense radiant heat and light in addition to explosive force, which can burn or blind unprotected individuals even if they are not directly struck by the electrical arc.

The best way to prevent arc flash hazards, of course, is to de-energize electrical equipment before servicing it in any fashion. However, the act of de-energizing equipment (throwing the switch on a circuit breaker, for example) is itself an arc flash hazard and lock-out/tag-out procedures to deactivate industrial equipment should not be performed without personal protective apparel specifically rated for the task.

Most people know that when handling electrical equipment, they should wear rubber gloves. More specifically, however, rubber gloves should be voltage-rated and tested for the maximum line-to-line voltage on which they will be working; furthermore, leather protective exterior gloves must be worn over them if they are to be used under conditions in which they could be damaged (by being scratched up, for example.) Furthermore, the NFPA 70E Standard for Electrical Safety Requirements for Employee
Workplaces requires semi-annual glove testing to ensure that gloves continue to perform as expected.

All arc flash PPE requirements also include safety glasses to protect the eyes, a hard hat to provide protection against head injuries, leather safety shoes to reduce grounding, and natural-fiber long-sleeved shirts and pants to provide a basic level of flame resistance. This is the base level of protection considered for ‘everyday work clothing’ upon which additional protective clothing is added to provide a protective solution. NFPA 70E rates various tasks in terms of HRC (hazard risk category) levels from 0 to 4, where 0 is ‘no added protection’ - the aforementioned minimum requirements - and 4 is required for circumstances involving working on energized high-voltage equipment, for example.

For worker safety, employers are required to fully evaluate and document electrical hazards, train employees in understanding these hazards, establish a flash protection boundary, restrict access to systems within this boundary to trained employees with proper protective gear and written authorization, institute lockout/tagout procedures on energized equipment before servicing it (with certain exceptions for life-critical equipment), and audit safety procedures annually. In short, this means ‘do not flip the switch on the 480 volt circuit breaker at your workplace unless you are specifically trained in the hazards, have proper protective apparel, and have written authorization to do so.’ The cost of doing otherwise could very well be your life.

For full compliance with OSHA and NFPA 70E requirements, visit our arc flash protective gear section on americanworksafety.com for arc-rated protective apparel and equipment, or contact our sales department to request quotes on personal protective equipment for your facility, department, or organization. The life you save may be your own.

Ask anyone what distinguishes a police patrolman on first glance, and one of the first things that people will answer with is the leather jackets they wear on duty. There are a variety of leather police jackets available, but considered amongst the best are those manufactured by Taylor’s Leatherwear.

Taylor’s Leatherwear is one of the few jacket manufacturers that still makes many of their jackets within the United States, and are the supplier of jackets worn by FedEx pilots, Homeland Security officers, U.S. Customs officials, and Border Patrol officers. Most street-level city, county, and state police officers wear Taylor’s Leatherwear leather jackets on duty.

Manufactured from cowhide or goatskin, these jackets are available in a variety of styles. Zip-out liners provide additional protection from cold weather and high-speed chill. They have styles made specifically to match department specifications, such as the # 4497Z NYPD jacket (with holster available on request), the # 4491Z LAPD/CHP jacket (designed to California Highway Patrol specifications) and the # 4418RZ Atlanta Jacket (with reflective tape and police panels).

Aside from being worn by police officers across the country, they are also worn by commercial pilots as well as the United States Air Force, and have been worn by actors in many movies and television shows. They offer a wide selection of American-made and imported leather jackets for every market and budget, and come with a five-year guarantee of their lasting quality.

Guess what time it is? That’s right, it’s getting closer to winter, and time to prepare against the worst the environment can throw at you. You’ve already gotten furnace filters for your home, made sure your car’s emergency kit is in order, and gotten a new snow shovel and road salt in case the weather gets out of hand. But have you remembered to prepare yourself for the winter?

With weather conditions growing progressively more extreme over the past decade, those who live in particularly cold climates with long commutes, or those who are stuck working outdoors, need to make certain that they have good insulated workwear that is waterproof and weatherproof. Industrial workers will find insulated coats and coveralls invaluable as temperatures plummet as low as -50° or worse. Police and security personnel will benefit from outerwear and rainwear built to meet the needs of personal comfort while not inhibiting their ability to respond to dangerous situations. Those working outdoors may also stand to improve their safety and meet ANSI specifications with high visibility outerwear. Practically anyone can benefit from an insulated boot to round out their work ensemble.

After you’ve winterized your work wardrobe, what about your personal health? Flu season is here, and for those at risk of contamination, the front line of defense for disease prevention is keeping clean. Antibacterial soaps are useful additions to your bathroom, kitchen sink, and hand sanitizers are invaluable for use in locations where handwashing is not possible. Many businesses now use wall-mounted dispensers to keep their customers healthy and clean when handling potentially unsanitary materials.

Now is the time to prepare for winter - so be sure that you have what you need to stay warm and healthy. Last year, we saw supplies of hand sanitizer sell out for upwards of four months throughout the winter, and winter clothing and supplies sell out in mid-January; there’s no telling when the next pandemic or blizzard may arrive, so stock up today while supplies last!

As the cold season approaches, construction workers, station attendants, highway patrol officers, utility servicemen, public safety personnel, and practically any profession that needs to spend large amounts of time near high-traffic areas starts looking for solutions to keep them easily visible while still remaining safe and warm. Fortunately, a wide variety of high-visibility outerwear exists to fill this important niche.

If you work in an area where wind and rain are more likely problems than sleet and snow, or you just need a good jacket that will withstand reasonably cool days, you can’t go wrong with a high visibility three-season jacket such as the Lakeland C3SA. As the title suggests, it is recommended for use from fall to spring, and it fulfills ANSI Class III high-visibility requirements. Zippered front pockets protect important supplies while keeping them close at reach. This is a good entry-level jacket for someone who needs a year-round solution, doesn’t want to wear an awkward vest over a bulkier coat, and wants to ensure full ANSI compliance. Depending on the materials, a three-season jacket can run up to $120 or more (such as for this Carhartt jacket); our Lakeland model, on the other hand, runs a modest $74.85 - a bargain for you or the whole team.

Of course, colder winters call for warmer high visibility coats, and this is where the Occunomix LUX-TJFS Five In One Coat and Bodywarmer excels. It consists of an outer two-layer coat (independently certified to ANSI Class III specifications, weatherproof, and including its own hood) and an inner three-layer Bodywarmer that itself qualifies as a class II garment, and also has an outer layer of 100% weatherproof PVC-coated polyester. They can be worn separately or together as the situation fits, while comfortably protecting the wearer in practically any weather condition. This OccuLux High Visibility Fluorescent Yellow 5-In-1 Coat And Bodywarmerretails on Amazon.com for $174.74; our price of $134.85 means you save almost $40 per coat.

Of course, if you happen to be working in extremely cold conditions, a normal coat or jacket simply won’t do. For times like these, you need something like our Refrigiwear 344L2 High-Visibility Thermal Coverall, a full-body protective solution rated to keep you warm and dry down to temperatures of -50° Fahrenheit, while providing maximum visibility in any situation. Of course, for those of you who work in the utilities or petrochemical industries in cold-weather climates, who have just as much to fear from both fire and ice, the Refrigiwear 7030THV Tecasafe Plus High-Visibility Flame Resistant Coverall comes with an ATPV arc rating of 41 cal/cm2 (NFPA 70E Hazard Risk Category 4), while still protecting you from the cold down to -20° Fahrenheit.

While jackets and coats will protect your body, you also need a good pair of gloves to protect your hands. Thinsulate gloves set the standard for hand protection in cold weather, andLakeland’s High-Visibility Thinsulate Reflective Gloves set the standard for high-visibility gloves, combining a bright lime-yellow exterior with reflective striping for the ultimate in high-visibility while keeping your hands warm and dry.

Now that you’re all bundled up for the winter, don’t neglect your head! High visibility knit caps like the Lakeland Hi-Vis Knit Cap provide an extra level of warmth and protection - and an extra level of visibilty and reflectivity, for those times when every square inch counts.

We at Anchortex Corporation salute the men and women who spend every day outdoors keeping our nation’s infrastructure running, no matter what the weather, and we are proud to do our part to ensure that these people get the high-visibility apparel they need for every season of the year. Looking to outfit an entire department, team, or crew at once? Contact us for information about volume pricing on these and other high-visibility items and lock in your price today while supplies last.
