3M™ 6800 Reusable Full Face Mask Respirator, Medium

It protects against particulates, gases, and vapours when paired with the appropriate 3M bayonet-style filters or cartridges. The lens and seal are designed to help keep your face protected from hazards encountered in many industrial settings.

The 6800 uses a bayonet connection, so you can attach a wide range of 3M bayonet-style filters and cartridges. Choose particulate filters (e.g., P100) and gas/vapour cartridges suited to your application, and ensure they are rated for bayonet-fit full-face respirators.

Place the facepiece over your face, position the chin and nose comfortably, tighten the four-strap head suspension evenly, and perform a user seal check to confirm a secure fit. Adjust the straps as needed for a snug, leak-free seal around the face and eyes.

With the filters mounted, cover the inhalation valve or breathe in gently. If the facepiece collapses slightly and no air leaks’re felt around the edges, the seal is good. If you feel leaks, readjust the straps and recheck the seal until it’s crack-free.

Size: Medium. Material: soft, non-allergenic elastomer facepiece. Lens: scratch-resistant full-face lens with broad field of vision. Suspension: four-strap head harness for a balanced, comfortable fit. Connection: bayonet, enabling a wide range of compatible filters and cartridges.

It's ideal for industrial environments requiring eye and respiratory protection, such as painting, solvent handling, chemical processing, metalworking, and tasks that generate dusts, aerosols, or fumes when used with the appropriate filters.

Disassemble as needed and wash parts with mild soap and warm water. Rinse and air dry completely before reassembling. Do not use harsh solvents. Store the respirator in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat when not in use.

Ensure a proper seal; facial hair or certain facial features can affect seal integrity. Use eye protection compatible with full-face use, and replace filters when exposure exposure limits are reached or odor/weakening is noticed. Follow all site-specific safety policies.

Replacement intervals depend on your usage, exposure levels, and the type of filters used. Replace filters when breathing resistance increases, odor or taste is detected, or the manufacturer’s guidelines indicate replacement is due. Always follow job-specific safety protocols.

Distribute strap tension evenly around the head, ensure the facepiece sits evenly on the nose bridge, and adjust for a comfortable yet secure seal. Periodically check fit during extended use and take short breaks if you feel discomfort or pressure.
