FAQ - MAZ-1 NRR 33 Earplugs
Q: Why choose Uncorded over Corded?
Uncorded earplugs are preferred in environments with rotating machinery where a cord could present a "snag" hazard. They are also more cost-effective for high-turnover visitor programs.
Q: Are these compatible with wall dispensers?
Yes, the bulk-refill versions (MAX-1-D) are designed for the Leight Source 400 and 500 wall-mounted dispensers to minimize packaging waste.
Q: Are these earplugs metal-detectable for use in food processing or pharmaceutical environments?
No, the standard MAX-1 is not metal-detectable. For facilities requiring HACCP compliance or electronic detection, you should use the Howard Leight Laser Trak. The Laser Trak features a non-ferrous metal grommet and a bright blue cord, making it both visually and electronically detectable if it accidentally enters the production line.
Q: What is the shelf life for these earplugs if bought in bulk? When stored in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, the Howard Leight MAX-1 has a shelf life of approximately 5 years. This allows procurement managers to take advantage of bulk pricing for 200-pair boxes without worrying about the foam degrading or losing its NRR 33 effectiveness over time.
