3M 7000127654 E-a-rsoft Grippers Corded Earplugs Nrr 31 Db

Product Description

The 3M 7000127654 E-A-Rsoft Grippers corded earplugs deliver a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 31 dB, making them a dependable choice for job sites and industrial environments where sustained noise exposure is a hazard. The defining feature is a set of grip rings molded into the earplug body. These rings conform to the earcanal wall and create a soft, noise-blocking seal without requiring a tight mechanical fit. The design is particularly suited to workers with larger earcanals who find standard foam plugs difficult to seat properly. Safety managers, industrial hygienists, and trade supervisors commonly specify these for hearing conservation programs requiring CSA Class AL compliance.

These earplugs are appropriate for use in manufacturing, construction, HVAC mechanical rooms, woodworking shops, and other high-decibel work environments. The corded configuration keeps the pair together between uses, which reduces loss and supports compliance in programs where accounting for PPE is required. The case quantity of 200 pairs makes this SKU well suited to stocking a job trailer, shop supply cabinet, or safety dispensing station. They are distributed to workers prior to entry into designated hearing protection zones.

Key Features

• NRR of 31 dB for effective attenuation in high-noise environments
• Unique grip rings form a soft, conforming seal in the earcanal
• Designed to fit workers with larger earcanals comfortably
• Corded design keeps pairs together and reduces loss on the job
• CSA Class AL certified for Canadian workplace compliance
• Case pack of 200 pairs supports bulk stocking and program distribution

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose corded earplug for hearing conservation programs in industrial, construction, and trade environments where OSHA or CSA hearing protection requirements apply.

Installation Notes

Earplugs should be fitted by rolling, inserting, and holding per the manufacturer fitting instructions to achieve the rated NRR. Safety officers and site supervisors should verify proper fit with workers, as improper insertion significantly reduces effective attenuation. Per OSHA 29 CFR 1910.95 and CSA Z94.2, hearing protectors must be selected based on actual noise exposure levels measured at the work site. Note that 3M recommends applying a 50 percent derating factor to the NRR of 31 dB when estimating real-world noise reduction during typical use.
