See product packaging and warnings for specific information. : Hearing Protection Products These hearing protection products help prevent hearing loss against certain noises. To provide proper protection, the hearing protector should be (1) suitable for the job, (2) fitted properly in/on the ear, (3) worn during all times of exposure to noise, and (4) replaced when damaged or otherwise necessary. Failure to fit and use hearing protectors according to these instructions will reduce their effectiveness. Failure to wear hearing protectors 100% of the time that you are exposed to hazardous noise may dramatically increase your risk of developing hearing loss. They may get caught in a child's windpipe. 3 Woodworking And Related Applications Create A Range Of Respiratory Challenges. 3M Offers Solutions.
