I know a lot of hate for Grainger not updating their inventory and canceling orders but I've been watching availability on these for a while and they showed in stock. Ordered this morning, they shipped UPS this afternoon, and scheduled to arrive Friday as promised. Good Luck!

As Coolpez says, "You can always wear a paper/cloth mask on top of this" if you are going to wear in public.
If you purchase something through a post on our site, Slickdeals may get a small share of the sale.

Personally, I like these options better because there is no exhaust valve:

100%, please don't use a mask with an exhaust valve.

Exactly. You just spread your germs.

Use them nearly daily, fair better than valveless
And no protection for anyone else if you are using these for going out.

I have nothing against valve masks if you are using them for projects and won't be around others, but using valve masks for any mask requirements defeats the purpose.

You can always wear a paper/cloth mask on top of this one.

Not allowed in the hospital I work at. Patients are asked to wear a surgical mask if they have this.

Exactly, these masks hold onto the face very tight with little room for air to escape and the metal retainer makes them that much more effective. In other words these masks will not come off without you pulling them down. The paper masks that loop over your ears have so many ways air escapes and comes in that honestly I'd argue the blue paper masks are equally worse if saying valve masks are not effective.


I will happily loop a paper mask over this one as that does work equally well and further protects you and those around you from aerosols.

It is extremely inconsiderate to wear these masks around others.

I would rather someone wear one of these properly than someone wear a chin diaper/not wear a mask

Great masks. If only everyone wore them, then there would be no need to debate valve/valveless. If you choose not to wear a mask, then don't blame others for wearing a valve mask.
Newsflash: it isn't just about you.
