3MS6502 - 3M 6502QL Medium Half Facepiece Respirator with Quick Latch

3M Rugged Comfort Quick Latch Half Facepiece Respirator 6502QL - Medium

The 3M™ Rugged Comfort Quick Latch Half Facepiece Reusable Respirator 6502QL is engineered for dirty, tough workplaces where comfort and durability are paramount. This medium-sized respirator distinguishes itself with the proprietary Quick Latch mechanism, a feature designed to enhance workflow efficiency. The Quick Latch allows the wearer to easily drop the respirator from their face with the touch of a hand, without the need to remove head straps, hard hats, or other personal protective equipment (PPE). This capability is essential for workers who frequently move between contaminated and safe zones or need to communicate quickly without fully doffing their gear.

Constructed with a resilient silicone face seal, the 6502QL provides a soft yet firm seal that maintains its shape even in high-heat environments. The silicone material offers extended life and superior comfort compared to standard elastomeric materials, reducing facial pressure points during long shifts. Central to the mask's performance is the 3M™ Cool Flow™ Valve. This proprietary valve design significantly reduces heat and moisture accumulation inside the facepiece, facilitating easier breathing and keeping the wearer cooler and drier.

The low-profile design of the half facepiece ensures a wide field of view and excellent compatibility with grinding shields and welding helmets. The exhalation valve cover is strategically designed to direct exhaled breath and moisture downward, which helps minimize the fogging of safety glasses and face shields. The adjustable head harness assembly ensures a secure, customized fit, while the bayonet connection system makes this respirator compatible with a broad range of 3M™ particulate filters and gas/vapor cartridges, providing versatile protection against various industrial hazards.
