Ambient-Noise Canceling Earplugs

Reduce exposure to loud background noise from nearby machinery without blocking out voices. Instead of muffling all sound like other earplugs, these soften sound to enable clear communication. Slide them right into your ear without rolling. Small earplugs fit most women; medium ones fit most men.

Earplugs with a sliding toggle come with six pairs of plugs in three sizes, so you can find the perfect fit for your ear. They let you change the noise reduction rating between 15 dB and 22 dB; slide the toggle with your finger to adjust the hearing protection as needed. These earplugs are good for jobs where you may perform especially loud tasks, such as turning on power tools. Because they have built-in noise filters, you can toggle between ratings while these earplugs are still in your ear—no need to take them out to swap out the filter. Embedded with magnets, they connect together when not in use for easy storage.

Chemical-Resistant Fluoroelastomer Gaskets
with Screen for Quick-Clamp Tube Fittings

In addition to providing a tight seal in quick-clamp stainless steel sanitary tube fittings, these gaskets have a corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel screen to provide inline straining. They resist fuel, oil, and acid condensates. The mesh size indicates the number of openings on the screen per square inch.

Water- and Steam-Resistant EPDM Gaskets
with Perforations for Quick-Clamp Tube Fittings

Straight Holes

Staggered Holes

These gaskets have a perforated plate to filter, separate, and strain liquids or dry materials in your line. Made of 316 stainless steel, the plate won’t corrode from frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners. Neither will the rest of these gaskets, which are made of EPDM rubber that resists water, steam, and UV light. In addition to filtering, they ensure a tight seal in quick-clamp stainless steel sanitary tube fittings. Gaskets are FDA compliant for direct contact with food and 3-A certified as meeting sanitary design standards. They meet ASME BPE purity and safety standards for bioprocessing equipment, and are rated USP Class VI as made from plastic that won’t contaminate biological samples.

High-Temperature Silicone Gaskets with Perforations for Quick-Clamp Tube Fittings

Use these perforated gaskets to filter liquids and dry materials, as well as create a tight seal in quick-clamp stainless steel sanitary tube fittings. Made of silicone, they handle temperatures up to 450° F, so they’re good for heated ingredients and clean-in-place (CIP) processes. However, oils will degrade them. Their perforated plate is 316 stainless steel to withstand washdowns with harsh cleaners and sanitizers. All of these gaskets are 3-A certified to meet sanitary design standards and FDA compliant for direct contact with food. USP Class VI, they’ve been tested to the highest standards to reduce the risk of leaching into biological samples. They also meet ASME BPE, which is a design standard for bioprocessing equipment that helps ensure purity and safety.
