Dust Mask….

looking for a good dust mask for real fine sanding, I use the throw away elastic type but thinking of getting some good ones……maybe someone has more knowledge on to direct me in the right direction…..thanks in advance….

I have a comfo classic that my uncle gave me it has replaceable cartridges and you can get different filters for different applications don’t know where you can purchase them if im correct you can order them online

Just make sure it has a NIOSH rating of N95.   We use http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002YKBV2?keywords=dust%20mask&qid=1449116434&ref_=sr_1_3&sr=8-3 at work,they work well.

Great idea but a little overkill for sanding lol

Overkill, yeah, probably but if your workpiece suddenly caught fire from excessive high speed sanding then you would be all set! Haha

For disposable I use 3m n95 masks

A lot of the time I use a reusable respirator though. The 3m 6000 series half face. The round pink filters are light weight and good for most stuff like sanding and you can even get filters for it that will protect against finer more harmful particles and vapors

lol the machine shop I worked in had a industrial chrome shop (we made our own hydraulics cylinders from scratch) and we didn’t have that kind of protection

Great post Comp, I was thinking about picking up a respirator with replaceable cartridges as well, instead of using the disposable particulate masks

thanks for the recommendations I have some N95 masks now just making sure was using the right ones

Saw it on some website when looking up “respirators and face masks.”

for some reason I don’t think I would use the masks until they were completely ready to get thrown out if I had her as a mask stand…
