N95 masks $1.16 a piece

Amazon has n95 masks $57.90 for 50. I thought it was a good deal. https://www.amazon.com/Kimberly-Clark-Respirator-53358-Universal-Respirators/dp/B08NVDFB3R

You can look like a duck

I think that is a good deal. I prefer the KN95 masks. Not sure which one is supposed to be better.

Melnic · Jan 25, 2021

ughh, thought you had something. Wife can't use cause not approved for medical use.
THat is how ever a good price though.

They have the Halyard n95s which are, but they’re more expensive. Definitely more restrictive and seal better than the kn95s out there.

Why would I wish to waste money on such a thing??

Doesn’t the “k” mean an n95 mask made in China?

No thanks.

I appreciate you sharing this - but I just want to note I’ve read there are a lot of counterfeit goods on Amazon. At least one of the reviewers of these masks is claiming these are counterfeit. China’s been caught sending fake/ineffective masks before earlier in 2020. Buyer beware.

100 for 33.99 and free ship. No idea if any good

Kn95 = Chinese standards. N95 = US standards. Make of that what you will.

I didn't know that Athelney878. Thanks for sharing.

KN95 are made in China and supposedly comparable to American N95 standards.

I’ll stick to our N95 duckbills

Sorry, did see the earlier post

No problem! I may have lacked in other areas but I had a decent stock of n95 masks and p100 respirators before this all started. Getting toward the end of the n95s these days, and it’s pretty hard to talk to people through p100s, which also tend to scare people.

Anyone know about kf94 korean masks? Trying to figure out what to wear when I go back to school.

They're good respirators. Some might have an odd fit. They sell both medical grade and industrial work grade versions of the KF94. However when I last checked the medical grade ones were $3-4/each, so not much less than US N95 masks (disposable kind), and pricier than decent KN95 masks (that you want to be certified as either GB 2626-2006 or GB 2626-2019). Ebay is filled with bogus KN95 masks which often tout being 5-layer masks with melt blown inner layers, but lack the correct certification in the box.

Basically the k means ear loops instead of head bands. They don’t seal as well so they aren’t as good as n95. And it does appear to be an Asian standard. Most kn95 sold come out of China.

It’s better than a cloth or standard surgical mask.

I ran a FB mask group for 3 years, with almost 4,000 followers until I dumped the group due to FB policies.

KN95 has nothing to do with ear loops. It is a Chinese rating.

KF94 is a Korean standard.

N95 is Niosh, and a US standard.

Respirators from the EU, UK, and parts of Asia use the FFP1, 2, OR 3 designation (Filtering Face piece), but may also be marked as N95, N80, etc, in the US.

By the way, there is also a P1, P2, etc. designation for masks that work against aerosols. Amazes me how the P designation has not made the rounds of internet folklore, yet. It is a better choice against COVID, but I assume they are not easily found (or perhaps they are again, recently). I have about 12 left, but they are respirators with a vent, so I have to tape the hole. They are also Asian 3M, so a bit smaller than I would like. Model is 3M 8922.

When will the 3M N95 masks be available again at Home Despot/Lowes?

ezracer · Feb 3, 2021

Oh.... just go ahead and buy some good 'ole USA 3M K95's
:lol:

I think the 3M masks will become valuable collector items in the future.
