Howard Leight Fusion Reusable Earplugs With Detachable Cord | NRR 27 dB | Box of 100 Pairs
Howard Leight Fusion FUS30-HP reusable earplugs combine a firm insertion core with soft flanges for workplace hearing protection. This regular-size model has an NRR of 27 dB and comes in a box of 100 pairs. The detachable nylon cord allows the plugs to remain connected when site rules permit corded protection.
The FlexiFirm stem provides a grip for insertion, while SoftFlanges form a seal within the ear canal. Fusion uses thermoplastic elastomer rather than roll-down disposable foam. The washable design supports repeat use when workers can maintain clean plugs, inspect their condition and store them properly between shifts.

Fit and Buying Considerations
This listing is the regular-size Fusion, not the separate small model. Select by the wearer’s fit rather than assuming one size suits the entire workforce. Follow the supplied insertion instructions and check the seal before entering hazardous noise.
Reusable earplugs can reduce repeat purchases when workers retain and care for them. Actual cost per shift depends on replacement frequency, loss, cleaning time and site hygiene rules. Do not assume a fixed service life or guaranteed savings over disposable plugs. Assess cord entanglement hazards before use around moving machinery.
Cleaning and Replacement
Wash with mild soap and warm water, dry with a clean towel and store in a clean case. Avoid unapproved solvents or cleaning treatments. Inspect before each use and replace plugs that are damaged, deformed, hardened or cannot be cleaned. Handling the stem does not eliminate the need for clean hands.
Hearing Protection Standards
The manufacturer reports NRR 27 under ANSI S3.19-1974. This laboratory rating does not guarantee a 27 dB reduction for every wearer. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.95 requires appropriate attenuation evaluation, fitting and training. OSHA 1926.101 addresses construction hearing protection.
NIOSH recommends individual quantitative fit testing to establish personal attenuation. Base selection on measured exposure and fit results, and wear protection throughout hazardous noise exposure.

FAQ
Is standard Fusion metal detectable?
This FUS30-HP listing does not claim metal detectability. Fusion Detectable is a separate product line.
Are these more comfortable than foam earplugs?
Comfort varies by wearer. The firm core and soft flanges provide a different fit from roll-down foam; evaluate comfort alongside measured protection.
Can the cord be detached?
Yes. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and your workplace’s cord policy.
