Innovative design, the first foam earplug featuring a cylinder shape
The 3M™ E-A-R™ Classic™ Earplugs set the industry standard for personal safety noise reduction as the worlds first foam earplug. Soft, slow-recovery foam is designed to mold to the shape of the ear canal and provide hearing protection. These disposable earplugs come with or without cords; an optional dispenser box is sold separately. A cylindrical shape is suited to fit most sizes, with a 7% smaller version also available for smaller ear canals and a 20% longer version for larger ear canals.

Compatible with the 3M™ E-A-Rfit™ Dual-Ear Validation System
E-A-Rfit™ provides an accurate quantitative assessment of how much noise reduction a hearing protector provides to an individual worker.
Disposable Foam Earplugs
3M™ Disposable Foam Earplugs, made from slow-recovery foam, help provide a combination of comfort and hearing protection for users. Once the foam earplugs are compressed into small cylinders (rolled down), they are easy to insert into ears where the slow recovery foam expands to fit the ear canals.
3M provides a wide range of disposable foam earplugs so you can choose the best solution for your needs.
Fitting Instructions
1. ROLL and compress disposable foam earplugs into a very thin crease-free cylinder.
2. REACH around the head to pull the ear outward and upward to help straighten the ear canal. Insert compressed earplug well into the ear canal.
3. CHECK FIT after inserting earplug.
4.LISTEN to steady loud noise with earplugs in both ears. Cover ears with tightly cupped hands. Noise should sound about the same whether or not ears are covered.
CAUTION: For greater comfort and safety, remove earplug slowly with twisting motion to gradually break the seal.
