A pleated, anti-fog surgical mask with ASTM Level 3 barrier protection, high bacterial and particle filtration, and secure earloops for comfortable extended wear.

- **ASTM Level 3**
- **Anti-Fog Foam**
- **Earloop**

## Key Specifications

- **Bacterial Filtration (BFE):** >98%
- **Particle Filtration (PFE):** >98%
- **Fluid Resistance:** 160 mmHg
- **ASTM Barrier Level:** L3

## 3-Layer Construction

Three layers of clinical protection. A soft, nonabrasive inner layer sits gently against skin. The breathable middle layer deflects fluids, and the outer layer minimizes particle dispersal, meeting ASTM Level 3 standards for procedural and surgical settings.

## Features

### Clear Vision
Anti-fog foam strip along the top edge reduces fogging for wearers of glasses and eye protection.

### Splash Defense
Rated to resist fluid penetration at 160 mmHg, suited to higher-exposure procedures.

### Easy Breathing
Low differential pressure under 5.0 mm H2O per square centimeter keeps airflow easy during extended wear.

### Secure Fit
Soft elastic earloops hold the pleated mask comfortably in place and fit most adult faces.

## Choose Your Pack

The same ASTM Level 3 mask in every pack. The only thing that changes is how many you get.

### Box of 50
A single box of fifty pleated earloop masks, sized for a home, office, or small practice.

### Case of 300
The higher-volume choice for clinics and busy facilities, at six times the count of a single box.

Both options are the identical mask, filtration, and 3-layer construction; only the quantity changes. A case of 300 is simply six times the 50-count box (6 x 50). Availability of each option can vary.

## How to Wear It

1. **Position** – Place the foam strip over the bridge of your nose, colored side facing out.
2. **Secure** – Loop the soft elastic bands behind each ear.
3. **Seal** – Expand the pleats and mold the mask to your chin and cheeks.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What ASTM level is this Cardinal Health surgical mask?
It meets ASTM Level 3, the highest barrier level, with greater than 98% bacterial and particle filtration efficiency and 160 mmHg fluid resistance.

### Does the mask help prevent fogging?
Yes. An anti-fog foam strip along the top edge helps reduce fogging for wearers of glasses and eye protection.

### Is this surgical mask sterile?
No. It is non-sterile and intended for procedural and surgical use where a high-barrier, non-sterile mask is appropriate.

### How does the mask stay on?
It uses soft elastic earloops that fit comfortably around most adult ears and hold the pleated mask securely in place.

### What is the mask made of?
A three-layer construction of cellulose, spunbond polypropylene, and foam, engineered for filtration, fluid resistance, and comfort.

### Is it one size?
Yes. It is a one-size-fits-most design for adults, with a pleated body that expands to cover the nose, mouth, and chin.

### Which pack sizes can I order?
Two options: a Box of 50 and a Case of 300. The mask is the same in both, so a case of 300 is simply six times the count of a box (6 x 50). Availability of each option can vary.
