Polartec® Power Shield®

Polartec Power Shield fabrics are the next generation of technical outwear - the soft shell.  This clothing concept goes beyond traditional 2-layer systems, which feature fleece insulation and a highly water-resistant /breathable shell, to a single layer that protects against all but the worst weather conditions and delivers extended breathability, abrasion resistance and stretch to enhance your outdoor experience while blocking 98% of the wind. Polartec Power Shield outdoor water resistant fabrics feature a smooth, tightly woven nylon face for abrasion resistance equal or superior to the best shells, but without the stiffness and noise. A polyester velour back that traps air and provides a high warmth-to-weight ratio. All Polartec Power Shield fabrics are finished with a durable water repellent (DWR) to shed rain and snow. All version feature spandex or mechanical stretch for freedom of movement. Garments made from Polartec Power Shield fabrics are designed to replace traditional fleece and shell systems for most outdoor clothing applications, reducing the weight and number of layers needed to insulate and protect. They are ideal for skiing, snowboarding, winter climbing, cycling and back-country trekking. They are used in jackets, pants, bibs, hats, and gloves.  It's outerwear that gets worn, not carried.

Sizes zero-zero through one include 48 grommets. Sizes two through four include 24 grommets. Available in brass, nickel plated brass finish or black anodized brass finish.

When setting grommets, use a hard surface under the grommet anvil. Our Mini Anvil works great for this application! To enhance the life expectancy of your grommet setter use a rawhide hammer or wooden mallet, not a steel hammer.

When using the hole punch that comes with this grommet kit, we highly recommend using the Self Healing Cutting Pad. Otherwise it is recommended to use corrugated cardboard on top of of the wooden block provided with kit. This will increase the life expectancy of the hole punch.
