  • *U.S. EPA specifies the NRR as the measure of hearing protector noise reduction. However, 3M makes no warranties as to the suitability of the NRR for this purpose. 3M strongly recommends personal fit testing of hearing protectors. Research suggests that users may receive less noise reduction than indicated by the attenuation label value(s) on the packaging due to variation in fit, fitting skill, and motivation of the user. Refer to applicable regulations or guidance on how to adjust attenuation label values. It is recommended that the NRR be reduced by 50% to better estimate typical protection

3M™ E-A-R™ TaperFit 2 Earplugs are made from soft, roll-down foam and are designed to expand to fit the ear canal - helping to provide a low-pressure, comfortable seal.

They are easy to use and designed with paddle style grips to provide quick, clean and consistent placement. 3M™ E-A-R™ TaperFit 2 Earplugs can be reused, helping to reduce waste.

Suggested applications
  • Poly bag keeps earplugs clean and accessible for re-use
  • Slow recovery foam easily goes into ear canal and stays in place
