OVERVIEW

Protect Your Lungs and Your Gear

If you are running a 3M Adflo PAPR system, you know that clean air is your lifeline in the shop. But did you know that a single stray spark from a grinder can wreak havoc on your expensive equipment? The 3M Speedglas Adflo Spark Arrestor is your first line of defense against the hot metal and spatter that fly around every welding bay. This simple metal screen sits right inside your filter cover, catching sparks before they have a chance to burn through your pre-filter or, worse, start a smoldering fire inside your blower unit.

Designed specifically for the professional fabricator, this spark arrestor is an absolute must-have if you do any grinding with your hood on. It acts as a shield, keeping the hot stuff out while letting the clean air flow freely. Without it, you are risking damage to your main particle filter and potentially compromising your safety. It is a small part that does a big job, giving you the peace of mind to focus on your weld puddle rather than worrying about your gear.

Maintenance is a breeze—just pop the cover off and check the screen. If it's looking clogged or beat up, swap it out in seconds. This pack comes with two spark arrestors, so you can keep a spare in your toolbox or rotate them out for cleaning. Don't let a $5 spark ruin a $1,500 PAPR system. Keep your Adflo running cool, clean, and safe with genuine 3M replacement parts.
