Description
The RaceQuip 121 series multi-layer SFI-5 racecar driver's fire suit jacket is designed for maximum thermal protection in high-stakes racing environments. This jacket features a specialized triple-layer barrier: a durable Pyrovatex FRC outer shell with a shiny finish, an inner layer of inherently fire-retardant Nomex batting, and a soft, breathable Pyrovatex FRC liner. This multi-layer system is engineered to provide the high heat-resistance necessary for drag racing and other high-speed motorsports.
Each jacket is manufactured by RaceQuip using heavy-duty, multi-needle, over-lock safety stitch machines to ensure exceptional seam strength and long-term durability. The Pyrovatex material is bonded at the molecular level, allowing the fabric to retain its fire-retardant properties throughout its useful life while effectively wicking moisture away from the skin.

Important Safety Information
While these materials are often referred to as "fireproof," it is important to note that all professional auto racing safety gear is technically "fire retardant." This RaceQuip jacket is engineered to provide critical protection against heat transfer and flames. To ensure maximum safety, please verify your measurements against the official RaceQuip size chart for the 4XL fitment, as a proper fit is vital for the thermal protective layers to function effectively.
