All personal protective equipment sold by David's Fire Equipment meets the most current NFPA standards in effect when the gear is purchased by us with the exception of "close-out" items.  However, some states differ on what standards apply to their fire fighters.  We are supplying this list for your convenience only and as it gets dated it will most likely just disappear.  David's has had no part in compiling the list and makes no claims as to its accuracy.
