Over-the-head hearing protection

The 3M X-Series earmuff X2A/37271 provides a Noise Reduction Rating of 24 dB for moderately high noise exposures. Its electrically insulated wire headband helps reduce exposure to electrical hazards. The black and yellow colour scheme makes the unit easy to spot in a busy workspace.

Workers needing dielectric headband insulation

This model suits operators who require dielectric protection and a twin headband that reduces heat buildup during long shifts. Buyers who want active noise cancellation or Bluetooth audio streaming should look at something else because this earmuff is purely passive. Users needing a higher attenuation figure for extreme environments will also need a different product.

Simple placement with adjustable tilt

The earcups tilt to match the wearer's head shape so a secure seal is reached quickly. The wire headband delivers consistent pressure without tools or complicated adjustments. A common issue occurs if the cushions are not replaced once they harden, because a broken seal lets noise leak past the cups.

Questions about this item

Do I need a separate headband or mounting hardware to use the 3M X-Series earmuffs?

The earmuffs include an integrated wire headband with a twin design, so no extra headband or mounting hardware is required.

Can I wear the X2A/37271 earmuffs over my existing safety glasses or hard hat?

The over-the-head design with tilting earcups allows a customised fit that typically accommodates safety glasses and many hard hats.

How can I confirm the earmuffs are providing the rated 24 dB noise reduction after putting them on?

Perform a fit check by cupping your hands over the earcups; if ambient noise does not drop noticeably, readjust the headband and earcup tilt until a tight seal is achieved.
