Top notch ear safety with industrial ear plugs
Hearing protection is vital when you work in a noisy or industrial environment. The human ear shouldn't be exposed to noise higher than 85 decibels for extended periods of time. Even if you're exposed to 85 decibels or lower, a consistent exposure over eight hours can begin to cause problems with your hearing. For a point of reference, a hair dryer is typically around 90 decibels. Playing music on your phone at the highest volume is around 115 decibels. Thanks to the extensive range of industrial ear plugs available here on eBay, you can ensure you keep your hearing in top notch shape. With the ease of online shopping, you don't even need to leave home to find the industrial ear plugs for you.
Explore the features of industrial ear plugs
Ear plugs are inserted into the ear canal to muffle loud noises. Sometimes they're also used to protect the inner ear from water, dust, or other foreign objects. They typically come in three different types. Foam plugs are made from PVC or polyurethane (also known as memory foam). These industrial ear plugs are rolled up, placed into the ear canal, and they expand to fit. Silicone ear plugs are made from silicone, rolled into a ball, and molded over the ear opening. Custom industrial ear plugs are made from acrylic, vinyl, or silicone, and are formed to specifically fit your ears.
Ear plugs may be single use or reusable. They tend to be rated for their noise reduction levels, so you can match your choice of industrial ear plugs to your typical environment. Hearing protection should not be taken lightly, so always read the instructions on how to properly use the plugs. If you're considering single use ear plugs, look for bulk sets, rather than buying individual pairs.
