Reasons the product is recalled
The earmuff headband force decreases over time when the P5E attachment arm is used in combination with certain hard hats. This could lead to the earmuffs offering less protection and more sound than intended to leak around the seal of the earmuff.
The hazards to consumers
There is a risk of hearing damage over time if sound leaks around the seal of the earmuffs.
What consumers should do
Consumers should:
1. Check to see if their 3M™ PELTOR™ X Series P5E Hard Hat Attached Electrically Insulated Earmuffs are affected using the information available below or on the 3M website.
2. If the earmuffs are affected stop using them immediately.
3. Detach the 3M™ PELTOR™ X Series P5E Earmuffs from the Hard Hat.
4. Contact the place of purchase to return affected product(s) for credit or refund.
