Particulate Filter 3M 5935 P3, pack of 2

3M Particulate Filter 5935 is a high-efficiency replacement filter providing P3 protection against solid and liquid airborne particles. Supplied as a pack containing two pairs of filters and a pair of 501 filter retainers, the filters are intended for use with compatible 6000-series half and full face respirators to deliver combined particulate and gas/vapour protection when paired with suitable gas filters and the 501 retainer. The product contains no natural rubber latex components.

Advantages

The 5935 filter offers P3-class filtration for high-efficiency capture of fine dusts, oil-based and water-based mists. It is designed to be compatible with 6000-series gas filters and the 501 filter retainer for combined protection, and it is tested to comply with relevant European standards. Packs include two pairs of filters and a pair of retainers for straightforward replacement and assembly.

Suitable for

• Orbital or manual sanding where high levels of fine dust are present
• Paint spraying and similar tasks requiring combined particulate and gas/vapour protection
• Industrial, construction, and maintenance environments with hazardous airborne particles

When it may not be suitable

This filter is intended for particulate protection (P3) and for combined use with appropriate gas filters; it does not provide standalone protection against gases or vapours without pairing with compatible gas filters. It is not suitable for environments requiring certified protection levels other than P3 or for use with respirator models outside the compatible 6000-series range.

Key specifications

• Filtration class: P3 (high efficiency for particulates)
• Suitable particle types: solid particles, oil-based and water-based mists
• Compatibility: designed for use with 6000-series filters and 501 filter retainer for combination use

How to use

Fit the 5935 particulate filters to compatible 6000-series gas filters using the 501 filter retainer according to the respirator manufacturer’s assembly instructions. Ensure the respirator provides a proper face seal and perform a user seal check before entering a contaminated area. Replace filters according to workplace exposure, breathing resistance, or manufacturer guidance.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm compatibility with your 6000-series respirator model
• Assess whether P3 particulate protection meets your workplace hazard requirements
• Determine whether combined gas/vapour filters and retainers are needed for your tasks

Usage recommendations

Use these filters with the correct 6000-series respirator and 501 retainer, follow all manufacturer fitting and maintenance instructions, and replace filters when breathing resistance increases or contamination levels indicate replacement.
