RZ M2 Air Filtration Mask

The RZ M2 Mesh Mask is an great alternative for those looking for a super lightweight dust mask that can be worn for hours on end.

The RZ M2 Mesh Mask is an great alternative for those looking for a super lightweight dust mask that can be worn for hours on end. It’s certainly much lighter in weight than any other dust mask I’ve used except for those disposable paper or cloth masks.

KEY FEATURES:

  • 99% efficient, .1 micron filter
  • Mesh fabric
  • Velcro strap
  • Dual exhalation valves
  • Small, Medium/Large, X-Large sizes
  • 12 colours to choose from
  • Includes: 2 replaceable M1 filters, storage bag

I’ve been using the RZ M2 in my shop intermittently for over 4 weeks. I find it very comfortable, and have worn it or upwards of 60 minutes at a time without feeling overly hot or sweaty. My only complaint is that the strap at the back of the neck has a tendency to pull the mask downwards slightly as I move my head around. It certainly isn’t a deal breaker, and something I can put up with given the overall light weight of the mask. Since writing this review I’ve found that RZ now has an M2.5 Mesh Mask that has two fully adjustable straps, rather than the single strap of the M2.

If, like me, you only wear a dust mask intermittently in your shop, and your looking for one that is both light in weight, comfortable, and effective, then you’ll want to consider the competitively priced RZ M2 (or the new M2.5).
