3M Formaldehyde / Organic Vapor Cartridge

Excellent product for protecting your lungs and your brain from the effects of formaldehyde and other gases and fumes !

These are really good filters and they help me stay healthy in the lab!

I primarily use these filters with my 3m respirator while doing custom fab work such as wood frame building, metal work, and painting. However this year I used these during California's devastating wildfire season when smoke and ash filled the skies where I live. I could not find these in stores anywhere due to the pandemic. So when I found these online at a reasonable price I bought them. They were a life saver. While others only had cloth face covering I was well protected with my respirator and new filters. My favorite filters so far.

Okay, this is going to be an odd review, and maybe a little gross. I bought these filters to use for the mask I had to buy in order to get through my human gross anatomy class. I'm allergic to formaldehyde and was stuck going to the lab for class, study sessions, and exams--no way around that. These worked perfectly. The mask they go in is really hot and uncomfortable (as is human gross anatomy lab in general), but it worked--I never noticed any fumes getting in, and the one time I took my mask off to say something I realized exactly how well it was working. I ended up using the disposable Tyvek coveralls and disposable shower caps to keep the smell from getting in my clothes and hair and making me sick for the rest of the day after lab, and it really did work. I looked like a freak, but hey, I got an A on the final. And I couldn't have done that whilst vomiting from breathing in formaldehyde the whole time...

Pros: Works like a charm, I cannot smell any formaldehydeCons: Nobody can hear me in lab, I have to yell which is annoying. Oh well :/

If you want to be able to work with dangerous fumes or glues, you are going to need this cartridge. It comes in a sturdy package and a pair of cartridges. I personally am using this with a half mask 3M respirator and it came in good condition. It works like a charm however, it does take used to breathing with because the filter is quite dense. But that's to be expected because exposure to these toxic chemicals is dangerous. I also gave it to my wife who also works with glues (she's an eyelash technician) and she won't work without it.

If you work with Formaldehyde, this is HIGHLY recommeded! If you are a hair stylist and do Brazillian Blowouts , you know that the formaldehyde is essential for straightening hair and vital to use, but highly toxic. Big bucks for pulling them off so buy them and add this to your arsnal is a key! These filters along with the mask not only offer comfort ability but maximum saftey for your loved ones! Don't forget 3M goggles! @Beauty.byRachel. Super easy to attach to mask and last a good enough time. Slide on, twist, and snap. Done!

I got this for my Respirator. I am a mortuary science student. This is a great filter for formaldehyde. Great price for a “broke” college student!
