<h1>Ear Plugs</h1> Ear plugs are designed to be inserted in the ear canal and are used to help protect your ears from the effects of noise. Although ear plugs help protect your ears they are not to be used as an alternative to controlling noise. They must fit properly and worn correctly for them to effectively do the job of protecting your ears and reducing the noise level. Under the control of noise at work regulation all employers must provide suitable hearing protection to employees where noise exceeds 80 dB (A).The SNR value is a European standard, the higher the SNR, the higher the level of noise attenuation provided by the earplugs. Remember that the SNR value is a guide only. Independent laboratories test earplugs to determine their SNR value. The SNR value can be used to compare the level of noise attenuation offered by different hearing protectors.There are many different types of ear plugs available and the type you choose depends on your personal needs.<h2>Type of Ear Plugs</h2><ul><li>Disposable&nbsp;ear plugs are normally made from expandable, slow recovery foam. They combine protection as well as comfort. They are designed to be thrown away after a single use and are available as individual earplugs or as a corded pair. To get the best results, slowly roll and compress into a thin cylinder. While the ear plug is compressed, insert into the ear canal.</li><li>Reusable&nbsp;ear plugs are made from a flexible material that is perforated to fit the ear. These type of earplugs are comfortable to wear and hygienic. To use reusable earplugs, reach around the back of your head and pull the ear outwards. Insert the earplug until you feel it sealing. Replace the reusable earplugs when they harden, shrink or tear. Keep them clean by washing in warm soapy water, rinse and allow to dry fully before you use them again.</li><li>Banded&nbsp;ear plugs are an easy to use plug for intermittent use. The ear plugs can be removed quickly and hang around your neck for keeping them safe. How to use banded earplugs: Easy to insert by holding the large ends of the pods, swivel them to direct into the ear. Push and wiggle if needed until you have a comfortable fit and seal. Replace the banded ear plugs when they harden, shrink or the band breaks. Keep them clean by washing in warm soapy water, rinse and allow to dry fully before you use them again.</li></ul><h2>When to use Ear Plugs</h2>The general rule is to wear ear protection to reduce noise that can damage your ears or where noise causes you problems.

Silicone ear plugs come in two main variations of hard silicone and soft silicone, each of which have their own benefits. Hard silicone ear plugs have the added benefit of being reusable, making them cost-efficient, but they can be uncomfortable if the sizes don't quite match your ear canal so it's important to ensure you have the right size. Soft silicone ear plugs work similarly to wax ones and provide a more comfortable fit due to being more mouldable to fit the ear canal better.Ear plugs are designed to help protect your ears from the effects of noise and as such are commonly used in construction, engineering and manufacturing industries to protect workers.

Corded Ear Plugs | RS

Corded ear plugs are ideal for providing reusable ear protection when travelling between areas of varying noise levels or when noise levels may fluctuate throughout the day. The cord allows the ear plugs to be kept around the neck between uses, keeping them close at hand and allowing them to be quickly reinserted for hearing protection when required. This prevents pairs of ear plugs getting lost, separated or misplaced between uses, and by being reusable they are also better for the environment, preventing excess waste caused by disposing of single-use ear plugs.There are several brands in the RS catalogue that provide high quality corded ear plugs, including 3M (and 3M E.A.R), Honeywell Safety, Uvex, and our own professional brand RS PRO.
