Milwaukee Tool Provides All Day Comfort with New Banded Hearing Protection

Milwaukee Tool is adding to their Personal Protective Equipment lineup with new hearing protection – Banded Ear Plugs. The Banded Ear Plugs are designed to provide all-day comfort with versatile wear and the adaptable design for 3-point wear allows users to set the band above their head, below their chin, or behind their neck.

The low-profile band securely fits to the wearer’s head and can be easily adjusted and pivoted when worn. The Banded Ear Plugs come with interchangeable Foam and Flanged Ear Plugs, both designed to protect users against hazardous jobsite noise. The Flanged Ear Plugs are designed to quickly fit the ear, allowing users to get back to work faster while still achieving a proper seal and providing a Noise Reduction Rating* (NRR) of 26. The Foam Ear Plugs are designed with a tapered shape to fit inside the ear canal and soft comfortable foam that expands quickly for a secure seal, providing an NRR of 25.

Milwaukee Tool’s new Banded Ear Plugs demonstrate Milwaukee Tool’s focus on creating innovative solutions that won’t slow users down, helping them STAY SAFE. STAY PRODUCTIVE™. For more information on Milwaukee® Personal Safety or to view the entire line, please visit www.milwaukeetool.com/ppe.

* The Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) is a unit of measurement used to determine the effectiveness of hearing protection to decrease sound exposure. The higher the NRR number associated with a hearing protector, the greater the potential for noise reduction.
