Overview

This P2 pre-moulded respirator with an exhalation valve is a card of 3 masks, built to fit a wide variety of face profiles. The exhalation valve provides increased air flow and comfort, the P2 rating protects against mechanically and thermally generated particles, and a pre-formed nose bridge minimizes the risk of leaks. Twin straps give a firm, comfortable fit, and the mask is metal free, which suits the food industry.

The pre-moulded shape is the difference between this respirator and a flat fold flat mask: it holds its shape so the seal sits consistently on the face, and the valve keeps the mask cooler on strenuous work. It is suited to medical, soldering, welding, grinding, sanding and dusty environments, and is certified to AS/NZS 1716.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is a pre-moulded respirator better for the seal?

A pre-moulded respirator holds its cup shape, so the seal sits consistently on the face rather than relying on you to shape the mask each time. That gives a more reliable fit, and the pre-formed nose bridge is designed to reduce leaks at the nose. The pre-moulded cup shape also makes the mask easy to put on correctly, because there is no shaping needed before you fit it.

Is this mask suitable for food industry work?

Yes. The listing states the mask is metal free, which makes it suitable for food industry work. That means there is no metal nose clip or staple that could break free and contaminate a food handling environment.

How many masks are on the card?

There are 3 masks on the card. The same respirator is also available as a box of 10 in the store, which is the economical option if you use them regularly.
