Top 10 3M Hardhat Muffs

The PELTOR X-Series earmuffs are 3M’s latest advancement in hearing conservation. New technologies in comfort, design and protection all come together in this groundbreaking earmuff line. The X3P3E earmuffs are designed to be attached to a hard hat and offer a NRR 25 dB which makes them ideal for moderate to high noise situations. The X3P3E features a newly designed spacer to help improve attenuation without the need for a much larger cup or double cup design. This lightweight earmuff is designed for protection against high H-level industrial noise and other loud sounds. When correctly selected and worn, these products help reduce exposure to hazardous levels of noise. The 3M PELTOR X Series earmuffs are ideal for protection against noise arising from a wide range of applications in the workplace. Examples of typical applications include: metal processing, automotive, airports, construction, textile manufacturing, chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing, cement manufacturing, printing, woodworking, heavy engineering, foundry, steelworks, and mining and quarrying. Also available in a electrically insulated (dielectric) wire headband model: 3M PELTOR X3A Over-the-Head Ear Muffs. The 3M PELTOR HYX3 Hygiene Kit offer replaceable ear cushions and foam liners to help keep your earmuffs clean and extend the service life.

From the Manufacturer

3M Peltor X-Series Cap-Mount Earmuffs, Black/Yellow, X2P3E, help protect hearing in moderately high noise exposure environments with a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 24 dB. When correctly selected and worn, these hearing protection products help reduce exposure to hazardous levels of noise and loud sounds. Specifically designed to enhanced worker comfort, these earmuffs combine a lightweight design with soft contact points and adjustability. This hearing protection accessory fits a wide range of industrial safety hard hats, including 3M™ H-700 Series Hard Hats, and it attaches directly to many hard hats without an adapter. Individual wearers can customize the fit of these hearing protectors with the adjustable earcups that tilt. Soft and wide cushions help the earmuffs seal comfortably around the ears, a feature that potentially can increase hearing protection compliance by workers working in environments where hearing protection may be required. Easy-to-replace cushions and inserts help prolong the life of the earmuffs and keep them clean.

Suggested applications and worksites for these earmuffs include metal processing, automotive, airports, construction, textile manufacturing, chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing, cement manufacturing, printing, woodworking, heavy engineering, foundry, steelworks, mining, and quarrying.

For the convenience of the wearer, the earcups may be placed in three different positions, including 1) the usage position with the ear cups against the ears, 2) the stand-by position with the earcups pulled slightly away from the ears, and 3) the storage position with the earcups pulled up and toward the back of the hard hat. This 3-position system allows taking off the earmuffs without removing the hard hat, which will help workers in hard hat zones where loud noises increase and decrease frequently.

Exposure to loud noises can adversely affect the ability to hear over time. Wearing proper hearing protection devices can help in reducing the harmful effects of noise. Sounds levels are expressed in decibels, often abbreviated as dB. Higher decibel numbers indicate louder sounds. Typical decibel levels associated with common sounds include: outdoors with no people or traffic 20 dB, normal conversation 60 dB, power lawn mower 90 dB, chain saw 110 dB, and 12-gauge shotgun 165 dB. The hearing protector NRR can be used to evaluate different hearing protection options. However, the actual level of protection varies depending on fit, wearing time and other factors.

For more than a century, 3M has applied innovation and technology to improving our customers’ lives and supporting their business goals. Today the company, from its headquarters in St. Paul, Minnesota, serves industrial and commercial customers and consumers in nearly 200 countries. Personal Safety products, focused on worker safety, include respirators, hearing-protection, eyewear, hard hats, air and noise monitoring devices, welding lenses, garments, fall protection, reflective materials, and comprehensive training programs.

Product Description

3M Peltor X1A Over-the-Head Earmuffs are a lightweight, low-profile earmuff designed for protection against low-level industrial noise and other loud sounds. It features an electrically insulated wire headband, often referred to as dielectric. The X-Series earmuffs are 3M’s latest advancement in hearing conservation. New technologies in comfort, design and protection all come together in this groundbreaking earmuff line.NOTE: The X-Series (over-the-head) headband version is electrically insulated, sometimes referred to as ‘dielectric’. The metal components of the headband have been covered by non-conductive material for use in a low voltage electrical hazard (less than 440 V ac). As there are no applicable standards for testing ear muffs against electrical insulating properties, the product has been evaluated at an external laboratory against a modified test method based on EN397:1995. During assessment, the leakage current did not exceed 1.2mA when the external surface of the product made contact with an electrical source. The user must determine the overall suitability of this product for the intended application taking into account any hazards other than noise for which this product is tested. *The NRR may overestimate the hearing protection provided during typical use. 3M recommends reducing the NRR according to the authority in your juristiction or reduce by 50-Percent for estimating the amount of noise reduction provided.Hearing Protection Solutions Made Innovatively Easy .

High level hearing protection without sacrificing comfort
Specifically designed to enhanced worker comfort, these earmuffs combine a lightweight design with soft contact points and adjustability. The twin headband design helps reduce heat buildup while offering a good fit and balance to make the headband more comfortable. The wire headband provides just enough pressure to ensure a secure fit, but never too much so as to become uncomfortably tight. Individual wearers can customize the fit of these hearing protectors with the adjustable earcups that tilt. Soft and wide cushions help the earmuffs seal comfortably around the ears, a feature that potentially can increase hearing protection compliance by workers in environments where hearing protection may be required. Easy-to-replace cushions and inserts help prolong the life of the earmuffs and keep them clean.

 

Versatile hearing protection for many work environments
