3M 6055 A2 Carbon Filters for Organic Gases and Vapours, Pair

3M 6055 A2 Carbon Filters for organic gases and vapours are a replaceable pair of filters designed for use with compatible 3M reusable respirator masks. These are A2 class gas and vapour filters made with activated carbon, helping protect against organic gases and vapours.

3M 6055 gas and vapour filters are replaceable cartridges designed for 3M 6000 Series reusable half masks. They have A2 classification for protection against organic gases and vapours, are lightweight, and the trapezoid shape helps maintain a good field of vision.

3M 6055 A2 filters are designed for work where organic vapours may be present, such as solvent-based paints, adhesives, cleaners and similar chemical materials. These filters can be used for spray painting together with P2 or P3 particulate protection, as well as for brush or roller painting.

The filters use activated carbon intended for A2 level protection against organic gases and vapours, such as solvent-based paints, adhesives and cleaning agents. This is especially relevant in automotive painting, body repair, paint preparation, cleaning, bonding and other work involving volatile organic substances.

3M 6055 A2 filters use a 3M bayonet connection, allowing the filters to be quickly and securely attached to a compatible 3M mask. 3M Organic Vapour Filter 6055 belongs to the 3M 6000 Series gas and vapour filter cartridges and is used with 3M half masks and full face masks.

These filters are suitable for professional use in car repair shops, spray booths, body repair workshops, industrial workplaces and other environments where protection against organic vapours is required. When working with paints, clear coats, primers, thinners, adhesives or cleaners, it is important to select the correct filter combination according to the safety data sheet of the material being used.

3M 6055 A2 filters are not intended for protection against dust or aerosol particles when used alone. If paint mist, sanding dust, aerosols or solid particles are generated during work, an additional compatible P2 or P3 particulate filter should be used according to working conditions and 3M system recommendations.

A2 class means the filter is intended for organic gases and vapours. A2 filters protect against organic vapours and gases with a boiling point above 65 °C.

Pair means that the set includes two filters for one compatible dual-filter 3M mask. The filters are attached on both sides of the mask, so both filters should always be replaced at the same time to maintain equal protection and breathing resistance.

Filter service life depends on the working environment, vapour concentration, working time, humidity, temperature and chemicals used. Filters should be replaced when smell or taste is detected, breathing resistance increases, filters are damaged, or according to the filter change schedule established at the workplace.

3M 6055 A2 carbon filters are a practical choice for automotive painting, clear coating, bonding, cleaning and chemical preparation work where A2 class protection against organic gases and vapours is required.

Install the filters according to the instructions for the 3M mask and filters.
Always use both filters at the same time.
Replace filters in pairs.
Before work, check mask fit and correct filter attachment.
Do not use if filters are damaged, contaminated or do not attach properly to the mask.
If smell, taste or irritation is noticed during work, leave the work area immediately and replace the filters.
If particles, paint mist or aerosols are generated during work, use an additional compatible P2 or P3 particulate filter.
Do not use in oxygen-deficient environments.
Do not use in unknown or immediately dangerous contaminant concentrations.
Do not use if contaminant concentration exceeds the permitted limits of the filter and mask system.
