3M 7100117588 Welding Valved Respirator N95

Product Description

The 3M 7100117588 is an N95-rated valved respirator designed for trades workers exposed to particulates during metal sanding, grinding, soldering, and welding operations. It carries NIOSH approval at the N95 filtration level, meaning it filters at least 95 percent of airborne particulate matter. The respirator features a low-profile exhalation valve that reduces heat and moisture buildup inside the mask, helping the wearer stay comfortable during extended use. Licensed HVAC techs, pipefitters, plumbers, and welders who work in metal fabrication or service environments will find this respirator well suited to their daily tasks.

This respirator is intended for environments where particulate exposure is a concern, including residential and light commercial jobsites involving metal grinding, cutting, soldering, or flux-core welding. It is a single-use, disposable design packaged in a minimum quantity of 12 units per order, making it practical for stocking in a shop or service van. The valved design supports longer wear periods by venting exhaled heat away from the face.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style disposable N95 valved respirator suitable for general particulate protection in welding, metal grinding, soldering, and similar trade applications where NIOSH N95-rated respiratory protection is required.

Installation Notes

This respirator must be fitted and worn in accordance with OSHA respiratory protection standards and the manufacturer fit instructions included with the product. A proper seal check should be performed each time the respirator is donned. Facial hair along the sealing surface will compromise the fit and filtration effectiveness. Discard after each use or when the respirator becomes damaged, soiled, or breathing resistance increases noticeably.
