3M PELTOR Ear Muff Hearing Protection, X1 Series, Noise Protection, Construction, Manufacturing, Maintenance, Automotive

If you’re a heavy machine operator, just go ahead and purchase one for yourself. Easy to lower and raise the ear muffler, you can also just raise one so you can talk to someone and put it back. Very comfortable as well.

I got these to make my job a bit easier.They fit my hard hat well and block out just the right amount of noise for me to hear voices but not painfully loud machinery.Made in the USA

Item arrived promptly in factory box, was clean and undamaged. Installed on an ERB industries Americana hard hat. Box instructions not very clear and in one case wrong. To install rotate tab away from ear muff and shove through har hat slot until it clicks. Consider it a permanent install as fit is very tight. Rotation to back of head storage position works well but takes a lot of pull to get ear muff over hard hat edge and onto ear. Fit on ear is tight but this might considered good as ear muff pad is soft. Fit is tight enough that hard hat does not fall off looking down even without chin strap so found useful for attic crawlspaces, etc. As best can tell the standby position shown on the box does not exist so if doing a lot of on off work this may not be the one. A Bluetooth version (not tried) might minimize need for frequent on/offs. Worked well over standard eye glass frames but have not tried with heavy safety glasses.

PERFECT! Exactly as described!

As a caution... these earmuffs are on the low decibel end of the scale!!! I deliberately bought them so I could hear people talk while walking around in an industrial environment. If you want to hear people speak, but still want hearing protection, these muffs are PERFECT. They are hardy, easily cleanable, and definitely worth the price. But, if you are going to be next to extremely loud machinery, you NEED to buy a set of muffs more muffling than these green ones. I definitely recommend the higher end of this product line by 3M. Good, sturdy construction (trust me, I've banged these up HARD on sites, and my helmet is starting to give before the earmuffs are).

Had a helmet with hearing protection attached. The Hearing protection broke off. Used these to replace those. They snap into the slot on the helmet. I did have to use the old holder that attaches to the helmet so I could still use my face screen. Matter of changing the holders and screws. Works well now.They do dampen the decibels down when using my chainsaw. They also keep my ears warm when wearing.

Apenas tengo casi dos meses con ellas, no reciben golpes ni están expuestas a la intemperie y ya se le cayó una almohadilla.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Great use for very loud equipment.
