3M 8293 P100 Particulate Respirator Mask | NIOSH-Approved | Case of 20
The ultimate in disposable respiratory protection. The 3M 8293 P100 Respirator is designed for those who require the highest level of NIOSH-rated filtration (99.97%) in a maintenance-free format. Unlike standard N-series masks, the P-series rating means this respirator is oil-resistant, making it suitable for environments where oil aerosols may be present, such as metalworking or specialized manufacturing.
This mask features the proprietary 3M Cool Flow Exhalation Valve, which directs warm, moist breath away from the face to keep the wearer cool and prevent safety glasses from fogging. For a personalized, airtight seal, it utilizes adjustable buckle straps and a soft inner foam face seal that conforms to your facial contours, ensuring a successful fit test across diverse crews

FAQ - 3M 8293 P100 Disposable Welding Mask
Q: Is this mask better than a reusable half-mask? A: It provides the same P100 protection level, but in a lighter, disposable format. It is ideal for workers who do not want the hassle of cleaning and maintaining a reusable 3M 6000 Series mask.
Q: Can I use the 3M 8293 for mold remediation? A: Yes. The P100 rating is highly effective against mold spores. However, if the area is heavily concentrated, a Full Facepiece is often preferred to protect the eyes from irritation.
Q: Why is this mask more expensive than the 8210? A: The 3M 8293 offers a much higher filtration grade (P100 vs N95), features an exhalation valve, has adjustable buckle straps, and includes a foam face seal for a superior fit.
