Product Description
- *U.S. EPA specifies the NRR as the measure of hearing protector noise reduction. However, 3M makes no warranties as to the suitability of the NRR for this purpose. 3M strongly recommends personal fit testing of hearing protectors. Research suggests that users may receive less noise reduction than indicated by the attenuation label value(s) on the packaging due to variation in fit, fitting skill, and motivation of the user. Refer to applicable regulations or guidance on how to adjust attenuation label values. It is recommended that the NRR be reduced by 50% to better estimate typical protection.

Trusted 3M E-A-R Classic
The 3M E-A-R Classic Earplugs 310-1001 are a trusted choice for hearing protection. These uncorded earplugs use 3M’s proprietary slow-recovery foam that conforms to the ear canal, providing a comfortable fit and effective noise reduction.
Designed as the world’s first foam earplugs, they have set the standard for noise reduction. Their unique foam initially feels firm for easy insertion, then softens to fit each ear’s shape perfectly.
High Noise Reduction Rating
These earplugs feature a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 29 dB, helping to protect your hearing in noisy environments. The NRR is a key measure specified by the U.S. EPA for hearing protector effectiveness.
While 3M recommends personal fit testing to ensure optimal protection, the high NRR makes these earplugs suitable for industrial or recreational noise exposure. The pillow pack format keeps them clean between uses.
Convenient Pillow Pack Format
The pillow pack packaging option is designed for easy storage and hygiene. It allows users to keep their earplugs safe and clean between uses, making them practical for daily wear.
This pack contains 2000 pairs per case, providing a large supply for workplaces or personal use. The uncorded design offers freedom of movement without tangling or snagging.
Compatible Fit Validation System
These earplugs are compatible with the 3M E-A-Rfit Validation System, which helps users verify the level of protection they achieve. This compatibility ensures users can confirm their earplugs fit properly.
Using the validation system can improve confidence in hearing protection, especially in environments where noise exposure is a concern. The uncorded 310-1001 model works seamlessly with this technology.
Moisture Resistant Foam Comfort
The moisture-resistant foam used in these earplugs helps maintain comfort and durability. It resists moisture buildup, which can affect fit and hygiene during extended wear.
The soft, slow-recovery foam also makes insertion easier by allowing time to position the earplug before it expands. This feature enhances comfort and ensures a secure fit for effective noise reduction.
