Respiratory Protection

Respiratory Protection for Dust, Particulates, and Everyday Jobs

Our respiratory protection collection brings together disposable N95 particulate respirators and ASTM-rated surgical masks from trusted names like 3M, Moldex, and Altor Safety, many of them proudly USA made. Whether you need a valved respirator for hot, humid work environments or a supply of pleated surgical masks for a clinic or lab, this range covers common airborne hazards found in construction, manufacturing, woodworking, healthcare, and general maintenance.

How to Choose the Right Respirator

• N95 vs. surgical mask: A NIOSH-approved N95 filters at least 95% of non-oily airborne particles. A surgical mask is a fluid barrier and source-control device, not a fit-tested particulate respirator to choose based on whether you're filtering dust or containing droplets.
• Exhalation valve: Models like the 3M 8515 and Moldex 2700 add a Cool Flow or AirWave valve to reduce heat and moisture buildup during long shifts.
• ASTM mask levels: Altor surgical masks are offered in ASTM Level 1, 2, and 3 to higher levels mean greater fluid-resistance and filtration for splashier tasks.
• Fit and sizing: Look for adjustable nose wires and available M to L sizing; a proper seal is essential for N95 performance.
• Pack size: Compare boxes, packs, and full cases (up to 2,000) to match your usage and reorder cadence.

A Note on Compliance

N95 respirators shown here reference NIOSH approval; surgical masks reference ASTM F2100 barrier levels. Always confirm the specific approval on each product page, and note that OSHA respiratory programs may require fit testing and medical evaluation before use.
