OVERVIEW

Industry Standard Respiratory Protection

The 3M 8210 N95 Particulate Respirator is one of the most recognized and trusted disposable respirators in the industrial safety market. Designed to provide reliable respiratory protection of at least 95 percent filtration efficiency against certain non-oil based particles, this respirator is a staple for facility safety managers and procurement officers across North America. It is engineered to help protect workers from solid particulates and liquid mists in environments where oil aerosols are not present.

Advanced Filtration Technology

At the core of the 8210 is 3M's proprietary Advanced Electrostatic Media (AEM). This technology utilizes highly charged microfibers that capture airborne particles while allowing for easier breathing compared to traditional filter media. This balance of protection and breathability is critical for maintaining worker compliance during long shifts in demanding environments.

Secure and Custom Fit

A proper seal is essential for any negative-pressure respirator to function correctly. The 3M 8210 features an adjustable aluminum noseclip that allows the wearer to mold the top of the mask to their specific facial contours. This custom fit reduces the potential for leakage around the nose and helps prevent the fogging of safety eyewear—a common safety hazard in industrial settings. The two-strap design, utilizing a welded dual-point attachment, ensures the mask remains securely in place during head movement.

Versatile Industrial Applications

This respirator is NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) approved and is suitable for a wide range of applications including grinding, sanding, sweeping, bagging, and other dusty operations. It is also effective against certain solids such as those from processing minerals, coal, iron ore, flour, and certain other substances. Please note that this model does not include an exhalation valve and is not resistant to oil-based aerosols.

FAQ

N95 is a NIOSH classification that means the respirator filters at least 95% of airborne particles. The 'N' stands for 'Not resistant to oil', meaning it should not be used in environments with oil-based mists.

No, the standard 3M 8210 does not have an exhalation valve. If you require a valve to reduce heat build-up, you should look for the 3M 8511 or similar 'Cool Flow' models.

Generally, 3M respirators have a shelf life of 5 years from the date of manufacture when stored in their original packaging within the specified temperature and humidity limits.

The 8210 is designed for particulates like grinding dust. While it offers some protection, for welding fumes (especially those containing heavy metals like manganese, hexavalent chromium, or zinc), a respirator with a P100 rating or a specialized welding respirator with a carbon layer for ozone/nuisance odors is often recommended.

Yes, the 3M 8210 has a relatively low profile cup design that fits under most standard welding helmets and grinding shields, though fitment depends on the specific helmet's internal clearance.

The 3M 8210 is a disposable respirator. It should be discarded when it becomes damaged, soiled, or when breathing becomes difficult. It is not designed to be washed or reused.

You must perform a user seal check every time you put it on. Cover the respirator with both hands and exhale sharply. If air leaks around the nose, readjust the nosepiece. If air leaks at the edges, work the straps back along the sides of your head.

No. The 3M 8210 is not designed for asbestos or lead abatement. Those hazards require more specialized respiratory protection, often HEPA (P100) filters and specific fit-testing protocols.
