3Mâ„¢ Particulate Respirator 8233 N100 with Valve, is well suited for those who want NIOSH’s highest-rated filtration efficiency (99.97% of particles to 0.3 microns) for non-oil based particles in a maintenance-free, disposable respirator.
Designed and rated for workers and occupational use, as well as residential, the 8233 (N100) is ideal for heavy-duty jobs at work or at home. The NIOSH N100-rated∗ respirator reduces inhalation exposure from allergens, dust, bacteria, viruses, mold, smoke, non-oil based mists, and other particles you want to avoid.
3M’s Cool Flowâ„¢ Valve releases exhaled breath quickly and effectively for temperatures inside the facepiece averaging 7.5°F cooler than similar masks tested without the valve. 3M’s high-performance Electret filter media also makes breathing cooler and easier.
 Package contains one (1) disposable mask.
*Due to health reasons, all face masks are NOT eligible for return and are excluded from our 60-day return policy.
∗ | NIOSH N100 approval rating signifies that the mask filters at least 99.97% of non-oil based particles as small as 0.3 microns. The “N” means it is not oil resistant. “N100” means highest NIOSH filtration rating in this class. |
Features
- Disposable, valved respirator mask carries NIOSH’s highest N100 rating for non-oil based particle filtration
- Best choice for extended wear in hot, dusty or physically demanding conditions
- Can be worn comfortably for longer periods than unvalved respirators, including the 3M 9210 N95
- Cool Flowâ„¢ Valve means your face stays 7.5°F cooler and eyewear doesn’t fog
- Advanced 3M media filters out small particles and improves breathability
- Adjustable dual head straps and foam faceseal ensure comfort and fit
- Pliant nose foam and adjustable nosepiece form a secure seal
- Lightweight and cool for increased wearability

Use For:
Solid particles, such as those from processing minerals, coal, iron ore, flour, and certain other substances. Liquid or non-oil based particles from sprays that do not also emit vapors. Metal fumes produced from welding, brazing, soldering, torch cutting, and other operations involving the heating or pouring of metals. Radioactive particulate materials, such as uranium and plutonium. Also ideal for smoke from wildfires as well as certain OSHA substance-specific contaminants including lead, MDA, arsenic and cadmium (excluding asbestos). Can also be used in pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Do Not Use For:
Gases and vapors, including those present in paint spraying operations, oil aerosols, asbestos or sandblasting. This respirator does not supply oxygen.
Biological Particles:
This respirator can help reduce exposure to certain airborne biological particles (e.g., viruses, mold, Bacillus anthracis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, etc.) but cannot eliminate the risk of contracting infection, illness or diseases. OSHA and other government agencies have not established safe exposure limits for these contaminants.
