## Overview

The 3M E-A-R Classic 312-1201 offers 200 pairs of uncorded, disposable foam earplugs with a high 29 dB Noise Reduction Rating. Featuring slow-recovery, low-pressure foam that adapts to your ear canal for all-day comfort, these earplugs resist moisture and come individually poly-bagged for hygiene. Designed for industrial use, they provide reliable noise protection across a wide range of heavy-duty applications.

## Description

More than 40 years ago this simple hearing protector, the world’s first foam ear plug, revolutionized hearing protection in the workplace and has remained to this day one of the most widely used earplugs in the world. The 3M E-A-R Classic Ear Plugs are constructed from slow-recovery, low-pressure foam. They fit snugly to create a noise barrier that helps protect hearing from loud sounds. These ear plugs are stiff enough when compressed to make fitting easier, yet soft enough to be comfortable in the ear for extended wear. Bright yellow color allows supervisors to conduct quick visual, hearing protection compliance checks. Recommended applications include chipping, chiseling, drilling, furnace operations, grinding, heavy equipment operations, machining, pouring/casting, power fastening, riveting, sanding, sawing and welding. These ear plugs are commonly used in the following industries: agriculture, automotive, chemicals, construction, general manufacturing, healthcare, oil and gas, and pharmaceuticals. These earplugs have a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 29 dB, CSA Class AL. Can be fit tested with the 3M E-A-Rfit Validation System. Moisture resistance helps maintain a consistent fit, even when humidity is present. Noise is not only present in our daily routines, but millions of Americans work in hazardous noise on a daily basis. Estimates from the National Institutes of Health suggest that approximately 15 percent of Americans (26 million people) between the ages of 20 and 69 have high frequency hearing loss due to exposure to noise at work or during leisure activities. Hearing loss due to noise is almost entirely preventable by consistent use of hearing protection. Note: 3M strongly recommends fit testing of hearing protectors. Research suggests that many users will receive less noise reduction than indicated by the NRR due to variation in hearing protector fit, fitting skill, and motivation of the user. If the NRR is used, 3M recommends that it be reduced by 50% or in accordance with applicable regulations.

Review: Outstanding Product! - I love these! I've been using them since I was in the military some 27 years ago. We used them at the firing range for hearing protection. The secret to them is that you have to follow the instructions. That is, you have to roll each one between your thumb and your index finger to get it as small as possible. Then, tilt your head to one side, and use your fingers from your other hand to pull your ear up and back.. Then promptly insert the rolled up plug as far inside the ear as possible, using your index finger to rotate it slightly once it's all the way in.. This ensures maximum insertion and effectivelness. The foam expands and blocks the ear canal. I still use these when i go shooting. I also use them when I fly. More importantly, I use them every time I go to sleep. They really block out noise. You'd be surprised how annoying even small exigent sounds like an air conditioner or traffic noise can keep you from getting a good sleep. These help me get a much better sleep! One additional tip... I keep a set of surgical forceps next to my bed. It makes it much easier to extract the earplugs in the morning!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No More Sore Ears
*by G***Y on April 3, 2021*

I need ear plugs to sleep. I don't need total silence, but I like ear plugs that make everything "muffled" and quiet. I've tried countless earplugs but so many leave my ears feeling incredibly sore after just a couple hours, making it very difficult to sleep. After much research, I took a chance on these earplugs and I've finally found the ones that work perfectly for me throughout the entire night. I can sleep with these earplugs for many hours with no soreness in my ears. Please note these ear plugs do not block ALL noise. I can still hear noise through the plugs and if someone is talking loud enough, I can understand them. Otherwise they do a great job of reducing noise overall and help me fall asleep. On a final note, I love that these come in individual plastic wrappers. It helps keep them clean but also prevents early deterioration of the plugs themselves. I can use one set of plugs for about a week before I replace them with a new pair. If you've suffered with sore ears from other plugs, I recommend giving these ones a try!
