Four moulded fibre dust masks (type 5052), made to meet the requirements of BS 6016 type 2.

Intended for heavy industrial or agricultural use, this moulded fibre dust mask meets the requirements of BS 6016 type 2. The unusual shape (there is an indentation in its convex surface) allows it to expand and contract as the wearer breathes while maintaining a good seal to the face.
