3M
The 3M Aura particulate respirator 9205+’s flat fold and three panel design is a multi-purpose respirator. It is NIOSH approved with at least 95% filtration efficiency for certain non-oil-based particles such as those from sanding, grinding and other dusty or arid operations. The 3M Aura particulate respirator 9205+ is designed to direct exhaled air away from the nose panel, helping reduce eyewear fogging. With a curved, low-profile design, the Aura respirator conforms well to nose and eye contours, allowing for more room for eyewear.
