Moldex - N100 with Handy Strap Dust Mask
This Moldex dust mask includes an exhaust valve and an adjustable strap that also lets you hang the mask around your neck
Nov 01, 2008
I recently tested a large selection of masks and respirators, and had the editors at Fine Woodworking do the same. After all of our testing, it’s clear that there are a few key features that make for a great mask. An exhaust valve is an indispensable feature. You also should look for a mask that is made from face-friendly material. An adjustable nosepiece is important and adjustable straps are a big plus.
Testers applauded the versatility of the Moldex Handy Strap, which allows you to hang the mask comfortably around your neck.

Overall, however, two masks really stood out from the rest in our tests: the 3M 8511 and the Willson Saf-T-Fit.
