Filter für Staub- & Atemschutzmasken

We stock a wide range of respirator cartridge filters that get your full face, half face and powered air respirator back on track once the filters have expired. All our filters are genuine items made by the original manufacturer, ensuring the quality, fit, and, most importantly, filtration standards are up to scratch.

These dust mask filters come in various styles and filtration standards, allowing them to cater to many environments and needs. Within the lineup of filters we keep on the shelf are particulate filters that catch fine particles such as fibreglass and brick dust, as well as filters that can protect against organic vapours and inorganic gases.

With dust facemask filters being a disposable item, they can and will need frequent replacing to ensure that your respirator continues to offer sufficient protection. If your filters are in need of replacement, give us a call; with our comprehensive range of filter cartridges available off the shelf with next-day delivery, you are only a few clicks away from getting back to work with sufficient respiratory protection.

It should be noted that filter cartridge performance heavily depends on the mask it is being used with. For instance, a P3 filter is suitable for use with asbestos when worn with a Force 10 full-face respirator but not with a half mask. Similarly, a P3 filter with an added carbon layer will only offer an equivalent particulate filtration to that of a P2 filter when worn with a half mask.

These are some of the reasons that a full risk assessment should be carried out before these products are used, alongside a proper fit test performed by a qualified person, to ensure that the filters and mask being used will offer the protection required.

How Long Do Disposable Face Mask Filters Last?

All mask filter cartridges will be marked with an expiration date; this is often also on the outside of the packaging and on the filter itself. This date, however, can often lead to confusion, as it is not an indication of how long the filter can be used; it is an indication of the last possible date you can start using the filter.

Similarly to a best-before date on a can of soup, dust mask filters can be stored until this date, but once opened, they have to be used within a set time limit. This is because the moisture content of the air reduces the efficacy of the filter.
