Miller ML00894 Lpr-100 Respirator W/Filters, Small/Medium

Miller Electric Half Mask Respirator Review The half mask respirator, from MIller Electric, is a fine product to use during welding, or any circumstance that may expose you to harsh chemicals or irritants. I am a welder, and I have been using this mask in conjunction with a welding mask and safety glasses. The fit is good, but my face is more slender than most. This product does have an adjustable strap so it should fit varying face sizes but one should be mindful when purchasing this product as it will be uncomfortable for anyone with a larger than average face. The quality of this mask is fairly robust as the synthetic rubber forms a good seal around the mouth and nose. The filters are also of high quality and should only need to be replaced once every two months or so with moderate usage, (30 minutes to an hour of continuous welding, 3 days out of the week). Due to the tight seal formed around the mouth and nose, air from your nose and mouth will not rise and fog up your safety glasses. As a welder this is extremely important during welding as monitoring the arc and bead flow is essential for creating a good weld. I’ve purchased many disposable respirators in hopes of holding back some irritants but in my experience they degrade during use, which is rather troublesome. This mask has completely eliminated that problem and I have been comfortably using it for over a year now. If you want to save your money, time and preserve your health; I recommend buying this mask

Works great! The fit is super snug. If you have a larger face this mask is not for you. It's well made and a bit pricey but works

Fits great, very comfortable, works great if you spend a lot of time grinding/grinding paint, arc gouging, etc. like I do. Fits under a sugar scoop just perfect. Seals very well even over a face gaiter. Very lightweight, wont fog your safety glasses, and honestly it’s barely any harder to breath thru than open air. Can hardly even smell it when I burn paint. + I think it looks pretty cool. Save your lungs and get this thing.

Good respirator used for few years while I was in welding school until straps went bad. Easy to replace the filters, straps need extra care, though. Lightweight, comfortable so decided to get another one. Nothing fancy but works for me. Need better straps!

This respirator performs very well in a daily welding environment with low ventilation. As a welding student, I use this respirator on a regular basis and can attest that Miller Electric did and excellent job in its construction. It is solidly built, fits well under my Lincoln Electric welding mask, does not give the suffocating feeling that many respirators are known for, and can quickly be taken on and off. The only downside is that the filter cartridges must be changed about once a month when frequently performing SMAW and FCAW welding. Never the less, I would recommend this product to those who weld on a regular basis, or every once in a while. If you want to keep welding fumes away from your lungs, this is the mask for you.

I finally gave up on the cheap disposable masks and wanted to try something a little nicer. After reading reviews and looking around, I settled on this one. At first I was concerned about size (SM/MD vs MD/LG) and went with the SM/MD, which worked perfectly for both my wife and me. She spent a day using it while doing demo on tile and drywall, and says it worked well for her. I just spent a day in my wood shop, sanding, sawing, planing, and emptying my dust collector. It worked very well for me. Neither of us has problems with our safety glasses fogging up and it's much easier to breath with than the disposable ones, even those with a valve thingy on the front. We ordered a second one, so we each could be using one.

My welding instructor recommended this to me. I need this to protect me from the dust, and bad air when welding. The size and design is good. I wish it had straps that I could take it off easier, but I understand why these are like that.

Fit is very comfortable. Exhale valve works excellent. Material is high quality. I dont understand the intended purpose of this mask though. Advertised to fit under welding helmet, advertised to filter metal fumes. Based on this I thought this was a respirator that would filter harmful smoke. I can smell smoke through the mask, and it is not a fit problem. Are "metal fumes" different than smoke? I dont know. I'm sure it works great for particulate, dust etc, I wear it for that too. But i feel it is advertised as a welding respirator and it doesn't seem to be.It does fit good under my helmet, but when I wear my helmet I am welding (generating smoke) i dont wear my welding helmet to grind or cut something or sweep the floor... If I am misunderstanding something please let me know. Thanks.

La máscara es bastante cómoda, perfecta de tamaño.
