Description
The DuPont™ Tychem® 5000 Hood is designed for demanding industrial and emergency-response environments where protection against chemical splash hazards is required. Its material consists of a multi-layer film barrier laminated to a durable 2.0 oz/yd² polypropylene substrate, providing a barrier against a broad range of chemicals.
The hood extends over the shoulders to provide full head coverage and incorporates a standard single-layer visor made from 20 mil PVC. A hook-and-loop waist closure helps secure the hood in position, while taped seams form part of its protective construction.
Finished in tan, the Tychem® 5000 Hood is suitable for chemical handling, petrochemical operations, hazardous-material and waste clean-up, fire department activities, industrial hazmat teams, utility operations, law enforcement and domestic preparedness applications.
