Moldex 2307N95 N95 Low Profile Disposable Respirator — Exhale Valve

The Moldex 2307N95 Disposable Particulate Respirator is a NIOSH-approved N95 disposable respirator with an integrated exhalation valve in a low-profile cup design — providing 95% minimum non-oil-resistant filtration in a shallower-projection facepiece with standard headband suspension, packaged 12 per box for workers who require the standard headband cup design with reduced forward projection for face shield and safety eyewear compatibility alongside standard N95 particulate protection with exhalation valve comfort. The low-profile cup design reduces the distance the respirator cup projects from the face compared to standard depth cup designs, providing clearance for face shields, safety glasses with side shields, and other facial protection that contacts or interferes with the forward profile of standard cup respirators during simultaneous wear. Workers who require both the familiar standard headband suspension and the face shield clearance of the low-profile cup — and who need the exhalation valve for comfort during physically active work — find the 2307N95 provides all three features in a single standard disposable N95 respirator. The 12/box packaging provides slightly higher per-box supply density than the standard 10/box format common in most N95 disposable respirators.

• 12/box packaging
• NIOSH Approved

Specifications

Low-Profile N95 with Standard Headband: Face Shield Compatibility Without Changing Suspension

The 2307N95 serves operations where workers prefer or are accustomed to standard parallel headband respirators but need the reduced cup projection of the low-profile design for face shield compatibility. Workers who have been using standard headband cup N95 respirators and are accustomed to the headband donning method — but are experiencing face shield contact problems with their current respirator — can switch to the 2307N95 and retain the familiar headband suspension while resolving the cup-depth contact problem with the low-profile design. This avoids the learning curve and donning-pattern change that switching to a HandyStrap loop-style respirator would require. For operations where the face shield contact problem is the primary PPE compatibility concern and the headband suspension is otherwise working well, the 2307N95 provides a targeted solution without requiring suspension system changes.

Compliance and Certifications

• NIOSH — N95 approved (42 CFR Part 84)
• OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 — respiratory protection standard applies for mandatory use applications

Real-World Benefits

Low-profile cup resolves face shield contact problems in workers using standard headband N95 respirators. Workers who experience face shield chin guard contact with standard cup depth N95 respirators can switch to the 2307N95 and retain their familiar headband suspension while eliminating the contact problem with the reduced cup projection.

Exhalation valve supports comfortable extended wear during physically demanding operations. The integrated exhalation valve reduces facepiece heat and humidity during active physical work, supporting continuous N95 use during demanding tasks without the discomfort that motivates premature removal in unvalved cup designs.

12/box packaging slightly increases supply density for programs with high N95 consumption. The 12-unit box provides marginally more efficient supply management at dispensing points compared to standard 10/box formats for operations specifying the low-profile N95 with valve.

Applications and Use Cases

• Face shield + headband N95 environments — 2307N95 for workers using standard headband respirators who need face shield clearance but prefer to maintain headband suspension
• General industrial N95 with face shield requirement — low-profile standard headband N95 for industrial workers in environments where both N95 respiratory protection and face shield use are required simultaneously
• Transition from standard to low-profile cup without suspension change — 2307N95 for respirator programs transitioning workers from standard cup to low-profile without changing the headband suspension system workers are familiar with

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 2307N95 low-profile cup the same as the 2607N95 HandyStrap low-profile?

Both 2307N95 and 2607N95 use low-profile cup designs for reduced projection. The difference is suspension: 2307N95 uses standard parallel headbands, 2607N95 uses HandyStrap loop straps for multi-PPE loop donning. If you wear a hard hat and need the loop donning advantage, specify the 2607N95. If you use standard headbands and do not need HandyStrap loop donning, the 2307N95 provides the same low-profile cup advantage with the familiar headband suspension. NIOSH N95 filtration performance is equivalent between the two designs.
