Best For: dust, mist and fume plus nuisance odor on Moldex respirators — a P100 filter with built-in nuisance OV/AG relief.
Not For: harmful gases or vapors. It captures particulate plus nuisance odor — pair it with a Moldex gas cartridge for gases.
Bottom Line: the P100 particulate choice for the Moldex system, plus nuisance OV/AG odor relief; pair it with a gas cartridge when vapors are present.

Moldex 7760 P100 Particulate Filter Overview
The Moldex 7760 is a NIOSH-approved P100 particulate filter for Moldex respirators. It captures at least 99.97% of airborne particles and is oil-proof. It also adds nuisance-level organic-vapor and acid-gas relief (for odors below the permissible exposure limit — not a substitute for a gas cartridge). Start with our filter types explained and organic vapor vs P100 guides, then see the Moldex P100 filter guide.
As a Moldex P100 filter the Moldex 7760 belongs to the Moldex respirator cartridges and filters range and fits Moldex 7000 and 7800 series half-mask respirators and 9000 series full-face respirators. Use it for particulate-only work, or pair it with a Moldex gas cartridge when vapors are present.
Where the Moldex 7760 Fits
The Moldex 7760 handles airborne particulate only. For gases you need a Moldex cartridge such as the 7100 organic vapor or 7200 acid gas, or a combination cartridge like the 7367 OV/AG / P100.
What Does the Moldex 7760 Protect Against?
| Hazard | Fit | Buyer guidance |
|---|---|---|
| Dust, mist, fume, lead (particulate) | Yes — P100 | ≥99.97%, oil-proof. |
| Oil-based mist | Yes | P100 is oil-proof. |
| Gases & vapors | Nuisance OV/AG odor only | Below-PEL odor relief; use a gas cartridge for harmful levels. |
What the Moldex 7760 Does NOT Protect Against
The Moldex 7760 does not capture harmful gas or vapor concentrations. Add the 7100 for organic vapor, the 7200 for acid gas, or use the all-in-one 7367.
No air-purifying cartridge makes a dangerous atmosphere safe. Never use the Moldex 7760 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
Particulate with odors
Work with dust plus low-level (below-PEL) solvent or acid-gas odors; the nuisance layer cuts the smell.
Pairing with a gas cartridge
For harmful gas levels, snap it onto a Moldex gas cartridge such as the 7300 OV/AG.

Moldex 7760 vs Other Moldex Filters
| Cartridge | Protects against |

| Moldex 7367 | OV/AG + P100 combo |
Moldex 7760 vs the Alternatives
How it compares to the closest Moldex options:
- 7760 vs standard 7740: the 7760 adds nuisance organic-vapor and acid-gas odor relief. Filter guide →
- 7760 vs 7740 IonicAir: the IonicAir prioritizes low breathing resistance; the 7760 adds odor relief.
- 7760 vs 7367: for harmful OV/AG levels the 7367 cartridge is required — the 7760's relief is nuisance-level only.
