3M PELTOR X2 Hearing Protection Earmuffs are over the head earmuffs designed for industrial and occupational users who need comfortable, reusable hearing protection for low to moderate workplace noise exposures. With an NRR 24 dB rating, these 3M earmuffs help reduce noise exposure when properly selected, fitted, and worn as part of a hearing conservation program.
The 3M PELTOR X2 uses acoustic design features including foam earcup inserts, spacers, soft ear cushions, and tilting pivot points to help create a consistent seal around the ears. These noise reduction earmuffs feature a twin headband design that helps reduce heat buildup during long shifts, while the internal stainless steel wire helps maintain consistent headband force over time.
For EHS managers, safety managers, production managers, site managers, facility maintenance leaders, contractors, municipal departments, and purchasing teams, these 3M PELTOR earmuffs are a practical choice for standardizing industrial earmuffs across crews, departments, and job locations.

Dielectric Headband Caution
The 3M PELTOR X-Series over-the-head version includes an electrically insulated headband, sometimes referred to as dielectric. The metal components of the headband are covered by non-conductive material for use in certain low-voltage electrical hazard environments below 440 V AC.
There are no universal earmuff standards specifically for testing electrical insulating properties. The user and employer must determine whether this product is suitable for the intended application, considering all hazards beyond noise exposure.
Safety Note
NRR ratings are laboratory ratings. Actual protection depends on proper fit, seal, training, compatibility with other PPE, and workplace noise conditions. Employers should select hearing protection based on measured noise exposure and applicable hearing conservation requirements.
