The 3M 6096 Gas, Vapour & Particulate Filters are versatile combinations filters designed to protect against a wide range of hazards. For example, they provide protection against organic gases, acid gases, mercury vapours and particulates.
The filters ae shaped for use in a 'swept-back' position, so they reduce obstruction to the user's field of vision. They are also lightweight (100g each) with low breathing resistance. They are easy to connect with a twist-and-click bayonet style locking mechanism for a safe and secure fit. The 6096 filters can be used with all 3M half and full face masks that use this bayonet mechanism.
