NIOSH-Approved High-Efficiency Surgical Mask (20-Count Box)
Gold-Standard Respiratory Protection for Public Health, Defense, and Federal Emergency Response.
The 3M™ N95 Respirator is a critical PPE asset for U.S. government agencies, designed to provide at least 95% filtration efficiency against solid and liquid aerosols that do not contain oil. This NIOSH-approved respirator is essential for federal healthcare workers (VA), emergency responders (FEMA), and personnel in environments with airborne particulate hazards. Its collapse-resistant design and electrostatically charged filter media provide reliable protection while maintaining breathability in high-stakes environments.

Key Federal Procurement & Operational Benefits:
- NIOSH Certification: Rigorously tested and certified by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) to filter 95% of non-oil-based particles, meeting federal safety mandates.
- Advanced Filter Media: Utilizes 3M’s proprietary electret media, which enhances the capture of airborne particles while reducing the breathing resistance typically found in high-efficiency masks.
- Secure Seal & Fit: Features an adjustable nose clip and two-strap design to provide a custom, secure seal on a wide range of face shapes, critical for successful OSHA-mandated Fit Testing.
- Fluid Resistance (Surgical Models): Select models are cleared by the FDA for use as surgical masks, providing resistance to splash and spatter of blood and other infectious materials in medical settings.
- Supply Chain Reliability: As a primary U.S. manufacturer, 3M products support domestic sourcing initiatives and are a staple in the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS).
