Honeywell North 75FFP100 P100 Filter Overview

The Honeywell North 75FFP100 is a NIOSH-approved low-profile P100 particulate filter that mounts on North bayonet respirators and captures at least 99.97% of airborne particles. It is oil-proof, so it handles oil-based mists as well as solid dust and fume. Start with our respirator filter types explained and the organic vapor vs P100 guide to confirm a P100 is what you need, then see the respirator cartridge color chart.

As a North P100 filter, the 75FFP100 filter belongs to the Honeywell North respirator filters and cartridges family. Read our hands-on Honeywell North 75FFP100 review for field-tested detail. Use the 75FFP100 for particulate-only work, or pair it with a North gas cartridge when vapors are also present.

Where the 75FFP100 Fits

The 75FFP100 handles airborne particulate only. For gases or vapors you need a North cartridge such as the N75001L (organic vapor) or N75002L (acid gas), or a combination cartridge like the 7581P100L that builds the P100 in.

What Does the 75FFP100 Protect Against?

What the 75FFP100 Does NOT Protect Against

The 75FFP100 does not capture gases or vapors. For solvent vapor add the N75001L, for acid gas the N75002L, or use the all-in-one 7581P100L combination.

No air-purifying cartridge makes a dangerous atmosphere safe. Never use the 75FFP100 in an oxygen-deficient or IDLH (immediately dangerous to life or health) atmosphere, in unknown concentrations, or against gases with no warning properties — those conditions require a supplied-air or SCBA system, not a cartridge respirator.

Best Applications

Welding & grinding

Its low-profile shape suits welding and grinding where a bulky filter blocks the view; the P100 captures weld fume. See respirator filter types explained.

Pairing with a gas cartridge

For solvent or coating vapor in the same task, add a North gas cartridge such as the N75001L.

Pros & Cons

75FFP100 vs Other North Filters & Cartridges

75FFP100 vs the Alternatives

How it stacks up against the closest North options:

• 75FFP100 vs 7506N95: the 75FFP100 is a P100 filter (99.97%, oil-proof); the 7506N95 is an N95 prefilter that snaps on to extend a cartridge.
• 75FFP100 vs 7581P100L: the 75FFP100 is particulate only; the 7581P100L builds the same P100 into an organic-vapor cartridge.
• 75FFP100 vs 7580P100: both are P100 filters; the 75FFP100 is the low-profile choice for welding visibility. Full comparison →

75FFP100 Quick Answers

Does the 75FFP100 stop gases?

No — it is a P100 particulate filter; pair it with a North gas cartridge for vapors.

Does the 75FFP100 fit North 5500 and 7700 respirators?

Yes. The North bayonet connection fits the 5500 and 7700 series half masks and the 5400 and 7600 series full-face respirators.

Yes — P100 is the oil-proof particulate class, good for oil mists as well as dust.

75FFP100 Specifications

Compatible North Respirators

The 75FFP100 uses the North bayonet connection, so it mounts on the North half-mask respirators (5500 and 7700 series) and North full-face respirators (5400 and 7600 series). It does not fit 3M or MSA facepieces.

75FFP100 Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Honeywell North 75FFP100 protect against?

The 75FFP100 is a P100 particulate filter. It captures at least 99.97% of airborne particles — dust, mist, fume, lead — and is oil-proof. It does not filter gases or vapors on its own.

Does the 75FFP100 protect against gases?

No. The 75FFP100 is particulate only. For gases or vapors, pair it with a North gas cartridge such as the N75001L, or use a combination cartridge like the 7581P100L.

Which respirators does the 75FFP100 fit?

The 75FFP100 uses the North bayonet connection, so it fits North 5500 and 7700 series half-mask respirators and North 5400 and 7600 series full-face respirators. It does not fit 3M or MSA facepieces.

What does P100 mean on the 75FFP100?

P100 is the highest NIOSH particulate rating: oil-proof and at least 99.97% efficient. The filter carries a magenta P100 marking.

Is the 75FFP100 oil-proof?

Yes. P100 filters are oil-proof, so the 75FFP100 can be used against oil-based mists as well as solid particulate, within its service life.
