Reviewed by Steven Eaton, WC Safety Editorial

The DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 coverall is a white disposable protective suit built on Tyvek 400 flash-spunbond HDPE. The TY120 is the economy door into genuine Tyvek: open wrists and ankles, collar instead of hood, nothing you do not need. For keeping grime, paint flecks, and nuisance dust off work clothes, it delivers the Tyvek fabric at the lowest price in the line. Our listing starts at the listed price, with the size run on the linked Amazon page.

Why the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 Stands Out

Published July 1, 2026 · Last updated July 27, 2026

The TY120 is the economy door into genuine Tyvek: open wrists and ankles, collar instead of hood, nothing you do not need. For keeping grime, paint flecks, and nuisance dust off work clothes, it delivers the Tyvek fabric at the lowest price in the line.

Fabric, Configuration and Protection

Type 5/6 fabric — economy general-purpose particulate coverage. Configuration: collared, front zipper, open wrists and ankles, serged seams. Our listing is the multi-suit pack, which suits visitor bins and truck stock. Like every disposable garment, it is a single-exposure product — once contaminated, it comes off at the work boundary and enters the waste stream your standard requires.

Fit follows the disposable-coverall rule: order one size over street clothes so the suit survives crouching and reaching. Elastic interfaces seal approximately, not absolutely — for regulated work, tape the glove and boot junctions and treat the suit as one layer of a system that includes hazard-matched gloves, eye protection, and the respirator your assessment names.

Where It Falls Short

Its limits: Fine-dust or containment work — open cuffs are an open door; step up to the TY125S or TY127S. No disposable coverall is a submersion garment, an arc-flash layer, or a substitute for the engineering controls that come first in the hierarchy.

Pros and Cons

Who Should Buy It

Consider the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 if you are maintenance, utility, and visitor-suit use where the goal is clean clothes rather than sealed protection.

Who Should Skip It

Skip it for fine-dust or containment work — open cuffs are an open door; step up to the TY125S or TY127S.

How It Compares

The TY125S is the same suit with elastic wrists and ankles — the upgrade to make when dust starts mattering. Both sit inside the field ranked in our best disposable coveralls guide, and the disposable coveralls collection carries the full ladder from breathable particle suits to taped-seam chemical barriers.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Bottom Line

The DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 earns its slot in the lineup: type 5/6 fabric in a disposable garment at a defensible price. Our listing is the multi-suit pack, which suits visitor bins and truck stock. Rated 4.1/5 on grade, configuration, and value for the intended hazard.

Common questions

What fabric is the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 made of?

Tyvek 400 flash-spunbond HDPE. That fabric choice is the core of what it protects against and how it wears.

What sizes does the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 come in?

Our listing carries one stocked configuration; the linked Amazon page lists the available sizes. Order one size over street clothes — undersized coveralls tear at the crotch and shoulders.

Is the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 reusable?

No. It is a single-use garment: once worn against the hazard it was chosen for, it is doffed at the work boundary and disposed of per the governing standard.

DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 vs Tyvek 400 TY125S — which should I buy?

The TY125S is the same suit with elastic wrists and ankles — the upgrade to make when dust starts mattering.

Does the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 have a hood?

No — it is a collared, front zipper, open wrists and ankles, serged seams. Choose a hooded suit when the contaminant is airborne or overhead.

What respirator should I pair with the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120?

The hazard that picked the suit picks the respirator: P100 filters for dusts, fibers, and mold; chemical cartridges for vapors and spray. Start with our when-do-you-need-a-respirator guide and the respiratory protection collection.

Are the seams on the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 sealed?

Collared, front zipper, open wrists and ankles, serged seams. Serged seams suit particulate duty; taped seams close the stitch-hole leak path chemical work demands — that distinction is exactly where the Tychem 4000 and 6000 earn their premium.

How much does the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 cost?

From the listed price on the linked Amazon listing; check the listing for the pack count at your size. Prices track the live listing.

Is the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 waterproof?

No — it is a particulate fabric that sheds at most light mist; liquid work needs a laminate or coated suit.

Can I wear the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 for asbestos or mold remediation?

For regulated abatement, crews spec a hood-and-boots Tyvek 400 TY122S so there is no gap at the footwear; this suit serves other duties better.

What color is the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120, and does color matter?

White. Color is convention, not protection — white for particulate suits, yellow for chemical garments, blue for biological and site-visibility roles.

Can I wear the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 over regular work clothes?

Yes — that is the intended use. Coveralls layer over clothing; size up so the seams are not loaded when you crouch.

What do I do with the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 after use?

Doff at the boundary of the work area, folding the contaminated surface inward, and dispose per the standard that governs your hazard — regulated waste for asbestos, lead, or biological work; general industrial waste otherwise.

Where does the DuPont Tyvek 400 TY120 fit in the WC Safety coverall lineup?

See how it ranks against all ten picks in the best disposable coveralls guide, or browse the disposable coveralls collection for the full fabric ladder.

Does the rating on the box equal the protection I get?

No. Published ratings come from laboratory conditions. Regulators apply derating precisely because real fit is worse, and the derated figure is the one to plan from.

Sources. Requirements referenced here come from OSHA 29 CFR 1910 and the NIOSH recommendations. Where a consensus standard governs, the ANSI document is named in the text.

Why trust WC Safety

WC Safety is an independent, affiliate-supported review site. It is not a retailer: it holds no inventory, takes no orders, and earns only from qualifying purchases through clearly marked links — which never changes what a product is rated to do. Standards language is taken from the regulation text directly, and ratings are reported as the manufacturer publishes them. We run no laboratory and perform no testing of our own. Where published sources disagree, we say so and plan on the conservative figure rather than the flattering one.

Our methodology

Figures come from the regulation and the published specification, in that order. Derated numbers are calculated, not estimated. Nothing here is presented as a measured result, because we measure nothing.

Researched and written by Steven Eaton, editor of WC Safety. Steven holds no safety certification and does not test products; this page compares what manufacturers and regulators publish, with the gaps in that record marked. Last reviewed August 2026.
