3M 8511HB1-C-PS N95 Valved Respirator 10 Pack

Product Description

The 3M 8511HB1-C-PS is an N95 particulate respirator designed for trades workers exposed to non-oil-based airborne particles during sanding, grinding, sawing, and insulation work. It features a Cool Flow exhalation valve that reduces heat and moisture buildup inside the facepiece, improving comfort during extended wear. The respirator meets NIOSH N95 filtration standards, meaning it filters at least 95 percent of airborne non-oil-based particles. This 10-pack format is suited for job sites where multiple workers need protection or where single-shift disposable use is standard practice. Licensed HVAC technicians, insulation installers, and general construction trades are the primary users.

This respirator is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications involving fiberglass insulation handling, drywall sanding, concrete grinding, and similar dust-generating tasks. The valved design makes it practical for warmer work environments or confined spaces where heat buildup becomes a fatigue factor. It is a disposable, single-use design and is not intended for protection against gases, vapors, or oil-based aerosols.

Key Features

• NIOSH-approved N95 filtration — filters at least 95 percent of non-oil-based airborne particles
• Cool Flow exhalation valve reduces heat and moisture inside the mask during extended wear
• Recommended for sanding, grinding, sawing, and fiberglass insulation projects
• Disposable construction for single-shift or single-use applications
• 10-pack quantity supports crew use or multi-day job site supply

Compatibility

Designed as a disposable N95 particulate respirator suitable for general construction, insulation, and abrasive trades work involving non-oil-based dust and particulates.

Installation Notes

This respirator is donned and doffed by the worker — no tools required. Perform a fit check each time the respirator is put on by covering the facepiece and exhaling gently to confirm the seal. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 requires a written respiratory protection program, fit testing, and medical evaluation before mandated respirator use in the workplace. Discard after each shift or when breathing resistance increases, the respirator becomes damaged, or it becomes contaminated.
