for a faceshield.
Cake-resistant filter media
• Uniquely-designed filter layers
reduce the caking of particles
on the respirator surface.
• Helps make the respirator
breathe easier longer, which
contributes to comfort, longer
service life and increased savings.
Faceseal (8214 only)
• Contours easily to help
provide a good seal.
• Comfortable to wear.
Adjustable noseclip
• Helps provide a custom fit
and secure seal.
• Reduces the potential for
eyewear fogging.

Respirators
Per Case
80
Use For:
• Solids such as those from processing
minerals, coal, iron ore, flour, and
certain other substances.
• Liquid or non-oil based particles
from sprays that do not also emit
harmful
vapors.
• Metal fumes produced from welding,
cutting and other operations
involving heating of metals.
Do Not Use For:
Gases, oil aerosols, asbestos, arsenic,
cadmium, lead, 4,4'-methylenedianiline
(MDA) or sandblasting. Aerosol
and/or ozone concentrations that
exceed 10 times the OSHA PEL,
or applicable exposure limits,
whichever is lower. Organic
vapors, including those present in
paint spraying operations, when
concentrations exceed the OSHA
PEL or applicable exposure limits,
whichever is lower. These
respirators do not supply oxygen.
Important
Before using these respirators,
you must determine the following:
1. The type of contaminant(s)
for which the respirator is
being selected.
2. The concentration level
of contaminant(s).
3. Whether the respirator can be
properly fitted on the wearer’s
face. Do not use with beards,
on other facial hair, or other
conditions that prevent a good
seal between the face and the
faceseal of the respirator.
4. Before use of these respirators,
a written respiratory protection
program must be implemented,
meeting all the requirements
of OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134,
including training, medical
evaluation and fit testing.
Time Use Limitation
If respirator becomes damaged,
soiled, or breathing becomes
difficult, leave the contaminated
area immediately and dispose of
the respirator.
Additional Information
These respirators contain no
components made from natural
rubber latex.
