North 7580P100 P100 Particulate Filter 7700 Series

Product Description

The NORTH 7580P100 is a P100-rated particulate filter designed for use with NORTH 7700 Series half-mask respirators. Identified by its purple color code per NIOSH convention, the P100 rating means this filter captures at least 99.97 percent of airborne particulates, including fine dust, mist, and certain aerosols. Filters are sold as a pair. Licensed respiratory protection professionals and industrial hygienists specify P100 filters for environments with high-concentration particulate hazards where N95 or R-series filtration is insufficient. The filter attaches directly to compatible NORTH facepieces without tools.

These filters are suited for residential and commercial applications where workers face exposure to fine particulates such as silica dust, lead dust, asbestos abatement, welding fume, and similar hazards. Typical installers and users include HVAC technicians, insulation contractors, electricians, plumbers, and industrial maintenance personnel. The P100 designation covers oil-proof filtration, making these appropriate for both dry and oily particulate environments. Each package contains two filters, allowing simultaneous replacement on both sides of the facepiece.
