3M Respirator Filter Replacement 5P71 (P95) — 5 Pairs for 5000/6000 Series

Overview

The 3M Bayonet Particulate Prefilters 5P71 are designed to extend the life of your gas and vapor cartridges by adding particulate protection. They are replaceable to support a cost-conscious filtration approach without swapping entire cartridge sets. When paired with the 3M Gas & Vapor Cartridges and the Filter Retainer 501, these prefilters help guard against dust and mist in everyday workflows. They also work with the 3M Filter Adapter 603 and the 3M Filter Retainer 501 for versatile particulate protection options. This setup offers practical flexibility for varied job sites while keeping inventory simple and focused on what’s essential.

Designed for occupational use, these prefilters are NIOSH-approved as either N95 or P95 filters and can contribute to a layered protection strategy when used with compatible 3M components. The system is intended to reduce the need for frequent cartridge changes, potentially saving time and resources over the life of a project or shift cycle.
