North by honeywell brand toxic dust prefilters are an essential accessory to protect your respiratory health in environments with suspended particles.
These pre-filters are placed over the North line cartridges, which offer a wide range of options for filtering different types of gases and vapors. N95 prefilters have a minimum filter efficiency of 95%, meaning they capture at least 95% of the particles that pass through them.
These particles can include dust, smoke, soot, paint sprays, wood, talc, and also filter bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms that can cause serious respiratory illnesses.
North's N95 prefilters are compatible with the same brand's reusable half-mask and full-mask respirators, which fit comfortably on your face and provide excellent visibility and mobility.
Also remember that vapor and mist cartridges do not filter suspended particles on their own; to do so, they require an additional pre-filter like this one.

Filters for particles with oils
