Velilla 605003 flame-retardant antistatic shirt: the lightweight option in the flame-retardant range
Long-sleeve shirt in 250 g/m² treated cotton twill with antistatic fibre, certified to EN ISO 11612 (A1 B1 C1 F1), EN ISO 11611 class 1 A1 and EN 1149-5. It is the lightest upper-body garment in the range: 20 g/m² less than the jacket, without giving up certification.

🧺 Care
Always follow the label: on category III PPE, the wash cycle is part of the certification. Washing outside the instructions may invalidate the protection.
No fabric softener: it leaves a film on the fibre that degrades antistatic and flame-retardant performance.
No bleach or chlorinated stain removers: they attack the cotton treatment.
Inspect before each use: a tear, a burn or an open seam puts the garment out of service.
💡 Tip: never wear it with the sleeves rolled up. The protection of a flame-retardant shirt is the surface it covers: with the sleeve rolled up, the forearm is bare exactly where spatter lands when welding. If it is hot, the answer is this 250 g/m² shirt instead of the 270 jacket, not rolling up the one you are wearing. And bear in mind that it is not certified against electric arc (IEC 61482).
