A detailed buying guide: how to choose respiratory and hearing protection.
This section covers respirators, half masks and filters, ear muffs and ear plugs. They protect from dust, paint vapours, chemicals and noise that damages hearing.
An FFP respirator is enough for dust, but paint and solvent vapours need a half mask with a carbon filter.
Noise above 85 dB from rotary hammers, grinders or compressors calls for ear muffs or plugs. Read how to choose hearing protection.
Respirators and ear muffs only protect when they seal well; a beard spoils a mask seal.
Check the label: standard (EN ISO), protection class, size and manufacturing date. Read how to read PPE markings, standards and replacement requirements.
The respirator must work with your glasses so they do not fog up. Read how to choose personal protective equipment.
Replace disposable respirators after each shift and filters when breathing gets harder or you smell the contaminant.
At ToolsArmenia you can choose respiratory and hearing protection by hazard type, protection class and fit.
