Oem Womens Hooded Raincoat On Sale
OEM Women's Hooded Raincoat
This document details the technical specifications, material options, and manufacturing considerations for OEM women's hooded raincoats designed for industrial and commercial procurement. The focus is on measurable engineering characteristics that inform purchasing decisions.
Material Composition and Performance Characteristics
The primary fabric is a 100% polyester plain weave with a polyurethane (PU) coating applied to the inner surface. The coating thickness averages 0.15mm, providing a hydrostatic head rating of 5,000mm, which indicates resistance to water penetration under sustained pressure. Seams are sealed with 15mm wide thermoplastic polyurethane tape, applied via heat bonding at 160°C, ensuring continuity of the waterproof barrier.
The hood features a three-panel construction with a laminated visor made from the same PU-coated polyester. The visor extends 50mm beyond the forehead edge to deflect rain away from the face. Adjustment is via two 10mm diameter elastic cords with cord locks, allowing circumferential tightening without exposing metal components to the exterior.
Design and Functional Features
The raincoat employs a raglan sleeve cut to maximize shoulder mobility, particularly relevant for tasks requiring overhead reach. Sleeve cuffs are constructed with a 25mm wide internal snap-tab system, enabling three adjustment positions to accommodate gloves or bare wrists. The front closure uses a 8mm coil nylon zipper with a storm flap that overlaps by 30mm, secured with six 12mm diameter snap fasteners spaced at 65mm intervals.
Two welt pockets are positioned at the hips, each with a 120mm vertical opening and a drainage grommet (3mm diameter) at the bottom corner to prevent water accumulation. Pocket bags are made from 100g/m² mesh polyester to promote drying. The hem includes a 40mm wide internal drawcord with cord locks, adjustable via two side exits, allowing users to tighten the bottom sweep without removing the garment.
Manufacturing Tolerances and Quality Control
Dimensional tolerances are maintained within ±1.5% for length and ±1.0% for circumference measurements, verified using calibrated tape measures under 2kg tension. Seam strength is tested per ASTM D1683, with a minimum requirement of 18N/mm for bonded seams and 25N/mm for stitched-and-taped seams. Colorfastness to light is rated at minimum 4 on the Blue Wool Scale after 20 hours of xenon arc exposure.
Each batch undergoes hydrostatic head testing on three random specimens per 1,000 units. Breathability, measured as moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR), targets a minimum of 3,000g/m²/24h using the inverted cup method (ASTM E96). These values are not guaranteed but represent typical performance for the specified material construction.
Customization Options
OEM production allows adjustments to the following parameters:
- Fabric weight: 180–240g/m² (base: 210g/m²)
- PU coating thickness: 0.10–0.20mm
- Hood depth: adjustable via pattern grading (±15mm)
- Zipper type: coil nylon, molded plastic, or water-resistant metal
- Reflective trim: 25mm wide silver or gray tape, positioned on sleeves, hood, and back
Logo application is available via screen printing, heat transfer, or embroidery on the left chest, upper back, or hood. Minimum order quantities for customization typically start at 300 units per SKU, subject to artwork approval and sample confirmation.
Typical Applications
This raincoat is specified for use in environments where personnel require protection from precipitation while maintaining mobility, such as:
- Outdoor logistics and warehouse operations during inclement weather
- Field service technicians performing equipment inspections or repairs
- Event staff managing outdoor gatherings or construction site access
- Agricultural workers engaged in crop monitoring or livestock handling
The design prioritizes non-interference with safety harnesses, tool belts, or communication gear, making it suitable as an outer layer over high-visibility vests or flame-resistant base layers when appropriately sized.
Comparison Table: Standard vs. Enhanced Configuration
| Feature | Standard | Enhanced |
|---|---|---|
| Fabric Weight | 210g/m² | 240g/m² |
| Hydrostatic Head | 5,000mm | 8,000mm |
| MVTR | 3,000g/m²/24h | 5,000g/m²/24h |
| Seal Tape Width | 15mm | 20mm |
| Reflective Trim | None | 25mm on sleeves, hood, back |
Values in the enhanced configuration are achievable through material selection and process adjustments. Exact performance depends on the combined specification and should be validated via pre-production sampling.
Packaging and Shipping
Units are folded to a standardized 30cm × 40cm × 5cm dimension and packed in polybags (50μm thickness) with desiccant packets. Carton dimensions are 40cm × 50cm × 30cm, containing 20 units per carton. Gross weight per carton averages 8.5kg for the standard configuration. Cartons are sealed with 48mm wide pressure-sensitive tape and labeled with barcode, SKU, size, and quantity.
For export shipments, cartons are stacked on Euro pallets (80cm × 120cm) and secured with stretch wrap. Corner boards and top frames are available upon request. Transit damage claims must be filed within 7 days of receipt with photographic evidence of packaging and product condition.
