Overview

The MaxiPlug uncorded earplugs are disposable foam earplugs with very high sound absorption, suited to very loud environments. The sealed surface prevents foreign bodies from penetrating the plug, and the soft polyurethane foam stays comfortable even when worn for extended periods. This tradies pack contains 100 pairs, with class 5 protection and an SLC80 rating of 26dB.

For a crew, a tradies pack of 100 pairs is the economical way to keep hearing protection on hand. The tapered design makes the plugs easy to fit, and the class 5 rating means they handle the loudest common site noise. Each pair is disposable, so the pack keeps the site supplied without any washing or maintenance.

The sealed surface is a practical detail: it stops dust and grime working into the foam, so the plug stays clean and comfortable while it is in the ear.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many pairs are in the tradies pack?

There are 100 pairs in the pack. That is a bulk quantity sized for a crew or a busy site, and the per-pair cost is well below buying small blister packs, so it is the economical way to keep hearing protection in supply. The pack is designed for a crew, so it is the economical way to keep a whole site supplied without chasing individual blister packs.

What noise rating do these earplugs have?

The plugs are rated class 5 with an SLC80 rating of 26dB, certified to AS/NZS 1270:2002. Class 5 is the top hearing protection class, so these plugs suit the loudest common site noise around plant, grinding and machinery. For the very highest noise environments, use the plugs together with an earmuff for a higher combined level of protection.

Are these the corded or uncorded version?

These are the uncorded version. The store also carries a corded blister pack of MaxiPlug earplugs if you want the cord to keep the pair together around your neck between exposures.
