Ensuring Seal Efficacy
The 3M FT-32 Bitter Fit Test Solution is essential for qualitative respiratory fit testing. Using denatonium benzoate (Bitrex™), this professional-grade solution creates an unmistakable bitter taste, providing a clear and reliable method to evaluate the face-seal efficacy of N95, half-face, and full-face respirators in compliance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134.
Why 3M FT-32?
- ✓ Regulatory Compliance: Meets OSHA and CE standards.
- ✓ High Capacity: 55 mL bottle supports ~200 test procedures.
- ✓ Clear Results: Unmistakable taste confirms fit gaps immediately.
