Whether you are working in a busy construction site or in a welding and metal fabrication workshop, the air can pose unseen dangers in such environments. Dust, fumes, mists, and vapours are common hazards that can lead to serious, long-term respiratory illnesses if not properly managed. Effective respiratory protection is a legal and ethical imperative to safeguard worker health under regulations like the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH). At Engweld, we understand this critical need, which is why we offer a comprehensive range of 3M Dust Masks & Respirators.
3M is a global leader in Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), committed to engineering advanced solutions that allow workers to breathe safely in challenging environments. At Engweld, we stock a wide variety of 3M respiratory protection, each product engineered for specific applications and levels of protection:
3M dust masks or disposable face masks are designed to protect against non-toxic dusts and mists typically found in lighter industrial applications. These disposable respirators offer comfortable, lightweight protection for environments with nuisance dust or low-level particulate exposure.
You can find various 3M dust masks in store such as the 3M 8812 Dust Valved Respirator, the 3M™ Aura™ 9312+ Dust Valved Respirator or the 3M 8822 Dust/Mist Respirator Valve. While ideal for many general tasks, it's crucial to select the correct protection level for specific hazards. In the case of our selection, you need to select between FFP1, FFP2 and FFP3 range of masks depending on your environment and your type of project.
If your environment needs superior protection against fine dusts, oil- or water-based mists, and hazardous fumes, you’ll need to select a 3M FFP3 respirators. FFP3 rating is the highest level of filtration efficiency (at least 99%) against airborne particulates. These highly effective disposable respirators are essential in environments with welding fumes, fine silica dust, or hazardous biological agents.
A good example of effective FPP3 respirators from 3M are the 3M™ Aura™ 9332+ if you are looking for a non reusable one or the 3M™ Maintenance Free Half Mask 4255+ for a reusable one.
Reusable respirator masks are made for regular use in environments with varying or higher levels of airborne contaminants. 3M offer a wide range of reusable respirator masks with versatile and cost-effective solutions.
The 3M Secure Click Half Mask Medium Speaking Diaphragm and the 3M7500 Medium Re-Usable Premium Half Mask are some of the main products from this category of masks. Featuring replaceable filters like the 3M 2138 P3 Particle Filter and cartridges, they can be adapted for protection against specific particulates, gases, and vapours simply by changing the appropriate filter combination. Reusable masks provide an excellent long-term solution, with a comfortable, secure fit and robust protection for prolonged exposure.
Our selection of 3M respiratory protection has been crafted to enhance the safety of all workers while thinking of their budget and specific needs. All our 3M dust masks and respirators meet relevant UK and European standards, including EN 149 for filtering half masks and EN 140 for reusable half masks.
