Full Face Respirators, Eye & Ear Protection
A full face respirator protects your lungs and eyes in one seal when spraying paint, sanding or working with chemicals. Match the filter cartridges to the job: particulate for dust, organic vapor for paints and solvents.
Which filters do I need for a respirator?
P100 particulate filters for dust and sanding, organic vapor cartridges for paint and solvents, or combination cartridges for both.
How do I check the respirator seal?
Cover the filters with your palms and inhale gently. The mask should pull in slightly and hold with no air leaking at the edges.
Buying guide
Choosing the right protection for the job
Protective gear only works if it fits and you keep it on. Choose work gloves by the hazard: cut-resistant gloves for sheet metal and glass, nitrile-coated gloves for grip in oil and wet conditions, and leather for heat and abrasion.
For eyes, look for safety glasses marked ANSI Z87.1 or Z87+ for impact protection. For ears, compare the NRR (Noise Reduction Rating): anything above 85 dB, like power saws and grinders, calls for plugs or muffs.
Read the cut level
ANSI A1-A9 rates cut resistance. A4 and above suits sheet metal, glass and blades.
Look for Z87+
The plus sign means the lenses passed high-velocity impact testing.
Double up when it is loud
Plugs under earmuffs add protection for chainsaws and very loud equipment.
Common questions
What cut level do I need for work gloves?
A2-A3 for general handling, A4-A6 for sheet metal and glass, A7 and up for heavy blades and metal stamping.
What does ANSI Z87.1 mean on safety glasses?
It is the US standard for eye and face protection. Z87+ lenses passed the high-impact test.
What NRR do I need?
Most power tools run at 90-105 dB. An NRR of 25-33 brings that into a safer range; double up for chainsaws.
