Ideal Applications
For service, maintenance and rail-related work where the garment’s supplied visibility specification meets the task. Check the employer’s current clothing requirements and confirm fit over normal layers. Use separately assessed rainwear, flame-resistant clothing or other PPE when those hazards are present.
Use and Care
Follow the supplied care label and permitted wash-cycle limits. Keep reflective areas clean and uncovered, and inspect the tape, seams and fastenings before use. Replace garments when wear or contamination affects suitability. Check the required size and length together before ordering for a team.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is RT42 flame-resistant workwear?
Do not assume flame resistance. This is a polycotton hi-vis service coverall; select separately certified FR clothing where needed.
Why does the product name mention GO/RT?
The catalogue name retains a legacy rail reference. Current Portwest documentation lists RIS-3279-TOM Issue 2 for orange; confirm the supplied garment markings and workplace requirements.
Are all sizes available in both lengths?
No. This page labels 4XL and 5XL for regular length only. Check the available combination before ordering.
Is it waterproof rainwear?
A stain-resistant finish is not a waterproof rainwear rating. Choose suitable rain protection separately when required.
