3M™ Particulate Respirator 8577

This disposable P95 particulate respirator helps provide respiratory protection against certain oil and non oil based particles. The respirator features a carbon layer to remove nuisance levels* of organic vapors. It features 3M Cool Flow Valve.

3M™ Particulate Respirator 8577, P95 is a disposable particulate respirator that is designed to help provide reliable respiratory protection of at least 95 percent filtration efficiency against certain oil and non oil based particles. A carbon layer reduces exposure to nuisance levels of organic vapors such as solvents, degreasers, and resins. Suggested applications include foundry operations, lab settings, agriculture, petrochemical manufacturing, and undercoating where particles and nuisance levels* of organic vapors may be present. Braided headbands and M Nose clip adjusts easily for fewer pressure points and greater comfort. The respirator incorporates 3M's proprietary technology with advanced electrostatically charged microfiber filter media designed for ease of breathing. This respirator is compatible with a variety of protective eyewear and hearing protection.

Fitted with a 3M Cool Flow™ Exhalation Valve, this respirator is ideally suited for work situations involving heat, humidity, or long periods of wear. The proprietary 3M Cool Flow valve is designed to release hot, humid exhaled breath quickly, helping to prevent an unpleasant build up of heat inside the facepiece a significant cause of discomfort to respirator wearers. The Cool Flow valve's efficiency in keeping breathing cool and comfortable has been demonstrated through testing*: the atmosphere inside a respirator with a Cool Flow valve is on average 7.5°F cooler than the similar product without the valve. This makes Cool Flow valve respirators ideal for long periods of wear, especially where conditions are hot, humid or physically demanding. *Testing conducted in a 3M laboratory. Testing protocol, data generation and conclusions were reviewed and approved by an expert from The University of Minnesota. The testing performed by 3M is not a part of the testing and certification conducted by NIOSH.
