Gateway introduces PeakFit air-purifying respirator

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Gateway Safety has introduced the PeakFit air-purifying respirator.

Its contoured design and ample size help make breathing easier, reducing worker fatigue and promoting compliance, according to the company. The molded nose bridge fits most faces, with no need to pinch a metal nosepiece to achieve a "peak fit." The integrated, one-piece cloth head strap with buckle is fully adjustable to fit any head size and is more durable than conventional stapled versions, the company says. Latex-free, the strap is cooler and more comfortable with no risk of exacerbating latex allergies.

PeakFit respirators are available in three versions:
PeakFit - filtration against aerosols free of oils below permissible exposure limit (PEL) PeakFit OV - additional filtration against aerosols free of organic vapors below PEL PeakFit AG - additional filtration against aerosols free of organic vapors and acid gases below PEL.
