Review: Great item, provides almost 100% protection again CoVid, if used with correct filter - PS: This is only a respirator and you need to buy correct filters, else it is unusable. I bought this 3m 6100 half face respirator (SMALL), for protection against CoVid-19, from Aabaco Environmental. They are a pleasure to work with. I had never used such respirators and the Seller Dan/John were kind enough to give me a call and explain me about size, fitment and filter cartridges. Within 6 days, I received a zip-lock packed 3M packaged respirator, in 3m packing which said imported from Canada. It is surprisingly light and comfortable. The part touching the face is all silicon rubber style padding, which provides comfort as well as a perfect fit. Fit: Model 6100 small fitted perfectly for my wife who is 5'1" 110 lbs. The fit is very important, I tested by blocking the intake and I couldn't breathe in, similarly by blocking the exhaust valve I could not feel any air slipping out from sides. A word about Covid-19/CoronaVirus: This respirator is not designed specifically for CoVid-19, but with right filters it can be better than N-95 masks. However, there is a confusing array of filters and cartridges, so new users need to understand a bit about it. I suggest checking you-tube videos (search for "3M 6100 respirator"). Filter: I bought "3M 60926 Multi Gas, Vapor Cartridge, Filter, P100 (2 Pack)" (pink) filter cartridge separately. This is a Gas + P100 particulate combo. For CoVid, you shouldn't care which type of gas it filters, as long as it comes with a P100 filter which provide a 99.97% protection against particulates of sizes up-to 0.3 micron. The typical cough/sneeze droplets are about 5 microns in size so this should be adequate protection even if CoronaVirus gets air-borne (which means mist with particle size around 0.25 microns) So with a P100 filter, this is even better than N-95 masks (which only provide 95% filtration and are nowhere to be found). Just ensure that the respirator is correct size for your face (3 models of respirators 6100/6200/6300 which are S/M/L respectively) The filters and cartridges typically say "compatible with 6000 series, which means any of 6100/6200/6300). While selecting a filter, note that there are some which are some "gas-only" cartridges which provide no protection against any particulates, so useless against CoronaVirus/CoVid-19. If you do not like pink color, you may use the circular 3M 2297 style filters, just ensure that you are getting a P95 or P100 protection. The circular filters attach directly to the respirator without any extra adapters etc, look for "bayonet" attachment mentioned in the filter description and make sure you get 3M branded filters. As a bonus, the circular filters are lighter, but on the flip side they are also more exposed whereas 60926 style combo cartridges protect the actual filter inside a plastic box. Bottomline: For CoVid-19 protection, surgical masks provide only a 20-30% filtration efficiency and are meant more to protect others from your cough/sneezes. If you need to protect yourself, you need either this or N-95 masks. Tip: To extend filter life, keep the respirator and filter in ziplock or some other seal when not being used. Review: Quality product - Perfect! Size small fits well on my little face. Easy to adjust. Good directions. No, it does not have the filters, but different types are available on desertcart. ## Features - Head harness cradle suspension is designed for a comfortable fit - Lightweight elastomeric material for comfort during long periods of work - Low profile design minimizes interference with field of view - Twin filter design provides lower breathing resistance - Bayonet connection fitting system to a broad range of filters to protect against gases, vapors and particulates ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01HMF7V0M | | Best Sellers Rank | #177,222 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #145 in Reusable Respirators | | Brand | 3M | | Brand Name | 3M | | Closure Type | head harness | | Color | Multicolor | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 1,305 Reviews | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 3.82"D x 5.2"W x 6.1"H | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Manufacturer | 3M Company | | Material | elastomeric | | Material Features | Recyclable | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | 142-6100 | | Product Style | Resistance | | Recommended Uses For Product | protection against gases, vapors and particulates | | Reusability | Reusable | | Size | 1 Count (Pack of 1) | | Special Feature | Lightweight,Reusable | | Special Features | Lightweight,Reusable | | Style Number | 1189P16EA | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** 3M - **Color:** Multicolor - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Size:** 1 Count (Pack of 1) - **Special Feature:** Lightweight,Reusable ## Images ![3M Safety 142-6100 6000 Series, Small Reusable Half Face Mask Respirator - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61W5wt0vUAL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Which filters/valves does this come with? What filters/valves would I need to purchase to make this a usable product?** A: Please take a moment to understand this product if you are just hunting for protection against CoronaVirus/CoVid-19 It was originally meant for Industrial use, like working with paints, vapors and dangerous gases etc. Thus, this comes without any filters, allowing the user to buy/swap the filters as needed. Eg: If I am working in a Hydrogen Fluoride environment, I could snap on a H-Fl gas cartridge, whereas if I an working in a ammonia or chlorine gases I could use the correct gas filter for those. This is not designed solely for CoVid-19, however with correct filters it can work better than N-95 masks. This is because certain cartridges are only for gas (which are of zero use against CoVid-19), however there are other cartridges that offer a combo of gas_particulate filter. These combo cartridge are good against CoVid-19 as they offer P-100 protection which is close to 99.97% (whereas N-95 is only 95% protection). A good example is the pink colored "3M 60926 Multi Gas, Vapor Cartridge, Filter, P100 (2 Pack)" as it comes with a P100 filter. Also usable are those circular P100 or P95 filters like "3Μ Advanced Particulate 2291 Filter, P100". A third option is the trapezium shaped replacement filters like "3M 5p71 P95 Particulate Filter" or similar. Do note that these are just cotton pads and need a case/adapter to fit to the respirator. In any option, if. you are a newbie, buy only 3M brand cartridges or filters as other brands may not fit. **Q: I see it comes with no fiilters and no information about which filters it uses< so what effing filters does it use?** A: Please take a moment to understand this product if you are just hunting for protection against CoronaVirus/CoVid-19 It was originally meant for Industrial use, like working with paints, vapors and dangerous gases etc. Thus, this comes without any filters, allowing the user to buy/swap the filters as needed.

My nephew works at a shoe factory and is exposed to glue all the time.** A: Yep if it works for epoxy it’ll word for glue. So long as you have the proper filters. Ugly pink ones work well. **Q: Has anyone used these masks outside when there is smoke in the air? is it easy to put on? is it comfortable to wear on the face? ty** A: I have one that I use when airbrushing my craft articles but have never had it on fir smoke. I can tell you that I had to get a small size which I had tried with another manufacturer. This mask is extremely comfortable, fits well and easy to remove. The straps for the neck area sometimes can be difficult to connect for me with arthritis in my hands. Overall I am extremely happy with this mask. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great item, provides almost 100% protection again CoVid, if used with correct filter *by S***. on July 17, 2020* PS: This is only a respirator and you need to buy correct filters, else it is unusable.

Size small fits well on my little face. Easy to adjust. Good directions. No, it does not have the filters, but different types are available on Amazon. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nicest Sellers Ever-extra stuff 2009 *by G***G on August 8, 2021* I got this for my daughter. She is 8 and wanted to do resin with me. The seller was very helpful and answered all questions and emails quickly. They even said they would absorb the loss since a return could not be resold, if it didn't fit my little girl, so I could afford to get a different one. I didn't need to though. The mask adjusts to fit her face perfectly. I even tried it on. With adjustment it also fits me. I can say it is 20x more comfortable to wear this with safety glasses than to wear my full face mask. I wish I had bought myself one of these. I just might in the future, if my shop turns a profit on etsy ♡. ## Frequently Bought Together - 3M Safety 142-6100 6000 Series, Small Reusable Half Face Mask Respirator - 3M P100 Respirator Cartridge/Filter 60926, 1 Pair, NIOSH, Helps Protect Against Organic Vapors, Acid Gases, Ammonia Methylamine, Formaldehyde and Particulates - 3M 2091 P100 Particulate Filter, 3 Pairs --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.lk/products/34211456-3m-safety-142-6100-6000-series-small-reusable-half-face](https://www.desertcart.lk/products/34211456-3m-safety-142-6100-6000-series-small-reusable-half-face) --- *Product available on Desertcart Sri Lanka* *Store origin: LK* *Last updated: 2026-10-10*
