Features
NIOSH-Approved N95 Filtration
-
Certified by NIOSH as N95, meaning it filters at least 95 % of airborne non-oil based particles when used with a compatible respirator.
Reusable Respirator Compatibility
-
Designed to attach to 3M reusable respirators using a filter retainer (3M™ 501) and optional adapter (3M™ 603), allowing users to upgrade their existing respirator for particulate protection.
Replaceable & Cost-Effective
-
The particulate filter is replaceable, which can reduce ongoing costs by letting users change filters without discarding the entire cartridge or respirator assembly.
Lightweight, Low-Profile Design
-
Its slim and lightweight construction enhances comfort and reduces obstruction or interference with other PPE like face shields or welding helmets.
Advanced Electret Media
-
Filter media uses electrostatically charged fibers that help capture fine particulate matter while allowing easier breathing compared with some conventional filters.
Benefits
Enhanced Respiratory Protection
-
When properly fitted and used with compatible 3M respirators, the 5N11 filter adds effective particulate protection for many work environments involving dust, aerosols, smoke, and fine debris.
Versatile Across Industries
-
Commonly used in construction, painting, sanding, grinding, metalworking, petrochemical, and general industrial settings where airborne particulates are present.
Cost Efficiency
-
Because the filter is replaceable, users don’t need to replace entire cartridges or respirators — only the filter when its performance declines.
Comfortable Wear
-
Lightweight and low-profile design improves comfort and reduces fatigue, particularly for prolonged work shifts.
Typical Applications
-
Spray painting and coatings
-
Woodworking (sanding, cutting)
-
Metal fabrication and welding fumes
-
Construction dust and demolition debris
-
Agricultural spraying (non-oil based)
-
Manufacturing dust control
(Always pair with a compatible respirator and follow workplace safety guidelines.)
Safety & Usage Notes
-
Not suitable for oil-based particulates or vapors alone — use cartridge combinations as needed for gas/vapor hazards.
-
Requires proper fit and installation on a compatible 3M respirator system.
-
Replace filters when soiled, damaged, or breathing resistance increases.
