Testing against the proposed new NIOSH fit-test panel confirms that the AnthroCurve II multi-ethnic face-seal design adapts precisely to different head sizes and facial contours. The patent-pending UniBond facepiece helps eliminate multiple leak paths while the textured sealing surface reduces facepiece slippage when working in hot, humid conditions. The patent-pending yoke and harness design enables quick and easy switch between lock-down and drop-down harness options.
