## Overview

3M E-A-R Classic VP312-1201 ear plugs deliver a robust Noise Reduction Rating of 29 dB using slow-recovery, low-pressure foam that comfortably conforms to your ear canal. Their bright yellow color enables quick compliance checks, while moisture resistance ensures a reliable fit even in humid or sweaty conditions. Designed for industrial professionals, these disposable, uncorded ear plugs are ideal for noisy environments like drilling, grinding, and welding, providing trusted hearing protection that balances comfort and performance.

## Description

More than 40 years ago this simple hearing protector, the world’s first foam ear plug, revolutionized hearing protection in the workplace and has remained to this day one of the most widely used earplugs in the world. The 3M E-A-R Classic Ear Plugs are constructed from slow-recovery, low-pressure foam. They fit snugly to create a noise barrier that helps protect hearing from loud sounds. These ear plugs are stiff enough when compressed to make fitting easy, yet soft enough to be comfortable in the ear for extended wear. Bright yellow colour allows supervisors to conduct quick visual hearing protection compliance checks. Recommended applications include chipping, chiselling, drilling, furnace operations, grinding, heavy equipment operations, machining, pouring/casting, power fastening, riveting, sanding, sawing and welding. These earplugs are commonly used in the following industries: agriculture, automotive, chemicals, construction, general manufacturing, healthcare, oil and gas, and pharmaceuticals. These ear plugs have a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 29 dB, CSA Class AL. * Can be fit tested with the 3M E-A-Rift Validation System. Moisture resistance helps maintain a consistent fit, even when humidity is present. Not only is noise present in our daily routines, but millions of Americans work in hazardous noise on a daily basis. Estimates from the National Institutes of Health suggest that approximately 15 percent of Americans (26 million people) between the ages of 20 and 69 have high frequency hearing loss due to exposure to noise at work or during leisure activities. Hearing loss due to noise is almost entirely preventable by consistent use of hearing protection. * Note: 3M strongly recommends fit testing of hearing protectors. Research suggests that many users will receive less noise reduction than indicated by the NRR due to variation in hearing protector fit, fitting skill, and motivation of the user. If the NRR is used, 3M recommends that it be reduced by 50% or in accordance with applicable regulations.

Review: Don’t hesitate to buy! - Great earplugs as they conform to your ears. The same kind received at the hospital for a hearing issue. They do not block all sound but lessen it significantly. Very comfortable compared to harder plastic ones.
Review: Effective in reducing noise - I have tried several different types of ear plugs, aǹd these are by far the best. They do not eliminate external noise completely, but they reduce it substantially, enough for my purposes. They can be reused many times. I would buy them again, if I ever need to.
