Expert Maintenance Tip by Sylprotec

"A simple visual inspection can save lives. We recommend checking the inhalation gasket every time you change your filters. If the silicone looks cracked, flattened, or discolored, replace it immediately. Always perform a negative pressure user seal check after installation to confirm a perfect fit."

FAQ: 3M 6895 Inhalation Gaskets

How often should I replace the inhalation port gasket?

No. The 6895 model is specifically designed for the 6000 and 7800 series. For other models, please refer to our dedicated 3M spare parts section.

Is the gasket washable?

Yes, it can be cleaned with warm water and mild soap. However, avoid harsh chemicals or solvents that can degrade the silicone material.
