Description

3M E-A-R Classic FP-01-000 Disposable Foam Earplugs are the world’s first, and most popular foam earplug.  They remain popular today due to their amazing quality and noise reducing benefits.  Although it’s classed as a disposable foam earplug it can actually be washed up to 3 times.  They are incredible value for money due to their low cost and reuse value.  These handy pocket-sized boxes are easy to distribute and carry around the workplace.

The energy absorbing polymer foam provides great hearing protection with a SNR 28 rating.  Keeping your hearing protected is vital, but it’s just as important that they are comfortable to wear.  If your ear plugs are uncomfortable your employees are less likely to wear them and risk damaging their ears.

The ear plugs are easy to roll and really easy to place into your ear canal. Once inside your ear, the soft foam will expand to provide you with a secure fit and the protection you need. The 3M E-A-R Classics will keep you protected while also being comfortable to wear.

The 3M E-A-R Classic FP-01-000 Disposable Foam Earplugs are available now at Safety Supplies.  Call our friendly team today for further details and expert advice on all of your PPE and hearing protection needs.

3M E-A-R Classic FP-01-000 Ear Plugs Fitting Instruction

  1. With clean hands, roll (don’t squeeze) the ear plug between your thumb and first 2 fingers until the diameter of the plug is as small as possible.
  2. Reach over your head with the opposite hand and pull the top of your ear to open the ear canal.
  3. While you are holding the ear open, quickly push the rolled end of the plug into your ear as far as possible.
  4. Keep your finger on the end of the plug for about 10 seconds until the plug expands to seal the ear.
  5. The disposable ear plug should be properly positioned in the ear canal.

Checking the fit of your 3M Ear Plugs

  1. Always fit your ear plugs so that they seal the ear closed. Once you put both plugs in, check the fit by talking out loud. Your voice should sound hollow, as if you are talking in a barrel. The noises around you should not sound as loud as they did before you put the plugs in.
  2. If you aren’t sure you have inserted the foam plug correctly, take it out of your ear and look at it before it expands. There should be no wrinkles or creases in the plug. At least 1⁄2 to 1⁄3 of the plug should be curved like the shape of your ear canal.
  3. Re-check the fit often. Your ear plugs may loosen up when you talk and chew. If this happens, you could lose your protection from noise.
  4. If you don’t get a good seal, you may get little or no protection from noise, so try another type of hearing protector.
