Thanks for posting this! I've been working around a lot of concrete dust lately, and it didn't occur to me that the N95 certs might be lies. Also didn't know there was a government website I could check against.
- mindslight 7y agoIf you're really working around "a lot" of concrete dust, a 3M #7500 half-face base with a P100 (99.97%) filter eg #2297 will only cost you $30-$40. Much better at not fogging up glasses, too.
- DoofusOfDeath 7y agoFollowing up on the OP's reference to an official list of N95-certified masks: [0] (see also [1]) [0] https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/npptl/topics/respirators/disp_part/n95list1.html https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/npptl/topics/respirators/disp_part... [1] https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/respirators/ https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/respirators/ > The only legit ones seem to be the 3M masks, and there's no telling if the ones they're selling are actually real. I think the OP misunderstood [0]. That page is specific to products from 3M, but it also links to the pages for other manufacturers' products.
