The KleenGuard A60 coverall is a blue- disposable protective suit built around microporous film laminate. The KleenGuard A60 makes a claim no plain Tyvek or SMS suit can: it passes ASTM F1670 (synthetic blood) and F1671 (viral penetration) testing. That makes it the disposable suit for biological hazard — trauma cleanup, forensic work, emergency medical response — where the question is not dust but fluid-borne pathogens. It is stocked in Large from the listed price.
Why the KleenGuard A60 Stands Out
Published · Last updated
The KleenGuard A60 makes a claim no plain Tyvek or SMS suit can: it passes ASTM F1670 (synthetic blood) and F1671 (viral penetration) testing. That makes it the disposable suit for biological hazard — trauma cleanup, forensic work, emergency medical response — where the question is not dust but fluid-borne pathogens.
Fabric, Configuration and Protection
Bloodborne pathogens and chemical splash — passes ASTM F1670/F1671 for penetration of blood, body fluids, and bloodborne pathogens. The configuration matters as much as the fabric: elastic hood, back, wrists and ankles, zip front with storm flap. Stocked in Large (24-suit case) in the recognizable KleenGuard blue. Like every disposable garment, it is a single-exposure product — once contaminated, it comes off at the work boundary and goes into 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. The elastic interfaces seal approximately, not absolutely — for regulated work, tape the wrist and ankle junctions and treat the suit as one layer of a system that includes gloves from the chemical-resistant gloves collection, eye protection, and the respirator your hazard assessment names.
Where It Falls Short
Its limits: Routine dust work — the film laminate is overkill for drywall sanding, and it breathes worse than SMS; it is also not a chemical-spray suit, so directed chemical spray goes to the A70. No disposable coverall is a submersion garment, an arc-flash layer, or a substitute for the engineering controls that should come first in the hierarchy.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Microporous film laminate matched to a clearly defined hazard
- Elastic hood, back, wrists and ankles, zip front with storm flap
- Stocked in Large from the listed price
- Single-use discipline is affordable — no decon ambiguity
Cons
- Disposable garment — not for exposure beyond its rating or duration
- Only Large is stocked at present; not a directed-spray chemical suit
Who Should Buy It
Consider the KleenGuard A60 if you are crime-scene and trauma cleanup crews, EMS and forensic teams, and anyone whose hazard assessment names blood or body fluids.
Who Should Skip It
Skip it for routine dust work — the film laminate is overkill for drywall sanding, and it breathes worse than SMS; it is also not a chemical-spray suit, so directed chemical spray goes to the A70.
How It Compares
One rung down, the KleenGuard A40 shares the microporous-laminate construction but without the ASTM F1670/F1671 bloodborne certification — if biological exposure is on the hazard list, only the A60 of the two qualifies. Both sit inside the wider 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
What is the KleenGuard A60 coverall rated for?
Bloodborne pathogens and chemical splash — passes ASTM F1670/F1671 for penetration of blood, body fluids, and bloodborne pathogens. Match it to the hazard your assessment names — the rating, not the price, picks the suit.
The Bottom Line
The KleenGuard A60 does its one job well: bloodborne pathogens and chemical splash in a disposable garment at a defensible price. Stocked in Large (24-suit case) in the recognizable KleenGuard blue. Rated 4.3/5 on grade, configuration, and value for the intended hazard.

Common questions
What fabric is the KleenGuard A60 made of?
Microporous film laminate. That makes it the disposable suit for biological hazard — trauma cleanup, forensic work, emergency medical response — where the question is not dust but fluid-borne pathogens
What sizes does the KleenGuard A60 come in at WC Safety?
We cover Large, from the listed price. Order one size over your street clothes — disposable coveralls tear at the crotch and shoulders when undersized.
Is the KleenGuard A60 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.
KleenGuard A60 vs KleenGuard A40 — which should I buy?
One rung down, the KleenGuard A40 shares the microporous-laminate construction but without the ASTM F1670/F1671 bloodborne certification — if biological exposure is on the hazard list, only the A60 of the two qualifies.
Does the KleenGuard A60 have a hood?
Yes — elastic hood, back, wrists and ankles, zip front with storm flap. Choose hooded suits when the contaminant is airborne or overhead.
Can I wear the KleenGuard A60 for asbestos or mold work?
It would work as a particulate barrier but is specified for biological hazard — for asbestos or mold, a hooded Tyvek 400 costs less and breathes the same or better.
What respirator should I pair with the KleenGuard A60?
The same hazard that picked the suit picks the respirator: P100 particulate filters for dusts, fibers, and mold; organic-vapor or multi-gas cartridges for chemical spray. Start with our when-do-you-need-a-respirator guide and the respiratory protection collection.
Are the seams on the KleenGuard A60 sealed?
The A60 uses serged seams with an elasticized hood, back, wrists, and ankles; its ASTM F1670/F1671 rating applies to the fabric barrier.
How much does the KleenGuard A60 cost?
From the listed price at the linked Amazon listing — check the product page for the exact pack count per size, since some sizes sell as cases. Prices track the live Amazon listing.
Is the KleenGuard A60 waterproof?
It resists fluid penetration well enough to pass ASTM F1670 synthetic-blood testing, but it is a barrier garment, not a rain or immersion suit.
What color is the KleenGuard A60, and does color matter?
Blue. Color is convention, not protection — yellow signals chemical garments, blue is common for biological and cleanroom work, white for general particulate suits. Crews use it for at-a-glance task separation.
Can I wear the KleenGuard A60 over my regular work clothes?
Yes — that is the intended use. Disposable coveralls layer over clothing; size up so seams are not loaded when you crouch, and tuck interfaces per your site procedure.
What should I do with the KleenGuard A60 after use?
Doff it at the boundary of the work area, folding the contaminated surface inward, and dispose of it according to the standard that governs your hazard — regulated waste for asbestos, lead, or biological work; general industrial waste otherwise. Never brush off and re-hang a contaminated suit.
Where does the KleenGuard A60 fit in the WC Safety coverall lineup?
See how it ranks against all ten suits in the best disposable coveralls guide, or browse the full disposable coveralls collection — from the breathable KleenGuard A20 up to the taped-seam DuPont Tychem 6000.
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.
