It delivers strong protection against particulates, dusts, fumes, mists, organic vapors, acid gases & other contaminants, and is compatible with all of our N-Series cartridge types for use in multiple applications. In addition to functioning as an air purifying respirator (APR), the 5500 model can easily transition to a powered air purifying respirator (PAPR) or a continuous flow supplied air respirator (CF-SAR).

The elastomeric face seal is contoured to best fit different facial areas, and the threaded cartridge connectors prevent accidental disconnection. The upper strap features minimum give for strong support through extended wear on the job.

Review: Great half mask for the money - One of the best half masks I've used. Strong seal, and although the exaughst hole doesn't take everything out when i breathe out its still a good half mask. Light and i have taken it apart to give a good clean and works nicely. Good value and fits nicely i have a mediumish face and fits nicely.
Review: Perfect - Perfect fit

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best mask
*by L***N on January 2, 2021*

I have hard time using cloth masks I sweat & its hard to breath & uncomfortable. This mask is amazing after a couple minutes it feels like its not there & you can breath and its not hot or sweaty at all also great for beard growers it adjusted nicely &tightly so no gaps from beard hair even though may make beard look funny sticking out sides lol
