Product Description

COSMIC SAFETY AT A LOW COST The economical breathing solution that does not compromise on features protects against dust, fumes, vapors, organic vapors, acids and other contaminants is compatible with all of our N-Series cartridge types.
This valve is an ideal fit for most face shapes and sizes. It features a contoured seal provided with variable thickness for superb seal in all facial areas. Threaded cartridge connectors prevent accidental disconnection. It is especially valuable in PAPR and CF-SAR applications.
A strong, flexible nose bridge combined with strong support around the chin area makes for a long-lasting, comfortable fit. The upper strap is constructed with minimal give for when you are on the job for extended periods. The elastomeric construction makes it tough and durable.
The Air Purifying Respirator (APR) 5500 Series can easily be converted into a Powerful Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) or Continuous Flow Supplied Air Respirator (CF-SAR) attachments are available separately.
A backpack adaptor is available for use with the welding and painting gear (sold separately) that is NIOSH-certified.

Questions & Answers

What is the comfort level of this half mask compared to that of the North 7700 series?

Considering these devices are designed to be worn for long periods of time, the 7700 series has much more comfort.

Is there a place to buy wholesale P100 cartridges?

If you're starting out, you should check Amazon.

In this case, what size would be best if I have a medium/large full face (it's one size)?

If you decide to use a respirator, you must undergo a fit testing before using the device. Instructions for taking the fit test for this product can be found on the Honeywell Website.

Selected User Reviews For Honeywell Home North 5500 Series Niosh-Approved Half Mask Respirator, Large (550030L), Purple

The fit and quality are good, and the price is good
4/5

The price is reasonable, too. I notice that the mask itself is of good quality, and it does a good job of sealing. I think the straps and retainers are easily susceptible to breakage. It takes only a little physical force to break the rear latch it bends easily, and it won't take much to brittle Even though these parts can be replaced by the end user, I hope that they will not fail while in use. I'm going to take my old respirator apart and use the buckles on this new This unit fits my needs as a DIYer doing home repairs and as a woodworker doing finishing work. It was decently priced and will work well for me. In the case of a professional that needs to wear one every day, I would spend more to get a better attachment mechanism. If you need a respirator once in a while or for a short period of time, this one will suffice. The important thing about a respirator is that it fits well and keeps out harmful particles. There are plenty of products out there that do this without breaking.

Masks of the highest quality
5/5

The cloth masks I use get wet and soaked I have a hard time using them There are times when it is difficult to breathe. That's not comfortable. Once the mask is applied, it becomes so invisible after a couple minutes that you almost forget it's there You can breathe freely, and it's not hot or sweaty at all. It's also a great product for beard growers since it fits well and adjusts well. Beard hair should be pinned in tightly so there are no gaps, even though it may cause the sides of the beard to stick out a little bit.

I like the mask and the respirator
5/5

This is a very good Since my older mask's replacement filters are no longer available for my older mask (different brand name), I bought an identical one in 2019. It is your only mask/respirator you will need for jobs in the garage or house, such as spray painting, cleaning engine parts with volatile chemicals like chlorinated brake parts cleaner or acetone, or scrubbing bathrooms with acidic cleaners, etc.

There would be an issue with the filters
4/5

Recently, I bought the product due to the extra sensitivity of allergies and asthma. My mask fit well, although it was a bit uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time. The filters I purchased from the same brand occasionally fell off, so I cannot determine if this is a problem with the filters or the mask itself.

Make sure you protect yourself
5/5

This is the perfect tool for fighting "covid". You're the only one who gets protected since it's the only mask.

That's a good piece of equipment, but the picture is broken
3/5

All my North brand equipment has been great so far, and I am definitely pleased with the price I paid for this one, so five stars in that respect. However, this listing is somewhat misleading since the picture does not accurately depict the item, and Amazon removed the note that it does not include.
