Description
Leo W18 Chapelton Rail Pull Apart Hi Vis Vest Class 2
The Leo Workwear W18 Chapelton Rail Pull Apart Hi Vis Vest is a specialist orange railway waistcoat designed for workers operating in environments where both compliant high visibility clothing and quick-release garment construction are required.
The W18-O combines EN ISO 20471 Class 2 visibility with RIS-3279-TOM rail compliance and quick-release side and shoulder seams designed to allow the garment to separate if it becomes caught.
Rail Hi Vis Vest with Pull-Apart Construction
Unlike a conventional fixed-seam waistcoat, the Chapelton incorporates quick-release sections at the sides and shoulders, making it particularly suited to rail and other work environments where entanglement hazards need to be considered.
- Hi-Vis Orange railway waistcoat
- RIS-3279-TOM compliant
- EN ISO 20471 Class 2 high visibility
- Quick-release side seams

Anti-Entanglement Rail Workwear
The pull-apart construction is the key feature of the W18 Chapelton. If the waistcoat becomes caught on machinery, equipment or an obstruction, the quick-release side and shoulder seams are designed to separate rather than remain fixed around the wearer.
This makes the W18 particularly relevant for railway engineering, maintenance and infrastructure environments where anti-entanglement workwear may form part of the site clothing specification.

The Leo W18 Chapelton can be personalised with your company logo, contractor identification or role text where the garment construction and compliance requirements allow.
