Moldex SparkPlugs® PlugStation® Disposable Foam Earplug Dispenser 6645, NRR 33dB

Description

Product Overview

The Moldex SparkPlugs PlugStation Disposable Foam Earplug Dispenser, model 6645, is engineered to provide reliable hearing protection in a variety of industrial and construction settings. With a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 33 dB, these foam earplugs meet the stringent requirements of OSHA and other regulatory bodies for high‑noise environments. The dispenser is constructed from durable, impact‑resistant polymer that can withstand the rigors of daily use on job sites, while the internal cartridge holds a precise quantity of foam plugs to ensure each worker receives only one pair at a time, reducing waste and encouraging proper usage.

Each earplug is made from a soft, slow‑recovery polyurethane foam that expands gently to fill the ear canal, creating a comfortable seal that blocks out harmful noise without causing pressure or discomfort. The tapered shape of the plugs is specifically designed to accommodate a wide range of ear canal sizes, from narrow to larger canals, making the product truly one‑size‑fits‑most. The dispenser itself features a high‑visibility orange‑yellow color, increasing awareness of the hearing conservation program and making the unit easy to locate in toolboxes, safety stations, or on workbench surfaces.

Usage

These earplugs are ideal for environments where noise levels regularly exceed 85 dB, such as construction sites, manufacturing plants, metal fabrication workshops, and demolition zones. Workers can quickly retrieve a single pair from the dispenser, insert the plug, and achieve immediate protection without the need for additional tools or adjustments. The dispenser’s design allows for hands‑free operation; a simple push of the lever releases one pair, ensuring that each employee only takes the amount intended for the shift, which helps maintain compliance with company safety policies.

Beyond traditional industrial applications, the PlugStation is also suitable for temporary events like concerts, festivals, and sporting events where crowd noise can be hazardous. The compact dimensions—17.13 × 8.94 × 6.06 inches—and lightweight construction (2.29 lb) make it easy to transport and mount on portable safety stations. The product’s metal‑detectable options (E series) further enhance safety in environments where metal detectors are used, ensuring that the earplug packaging does not interfere with security protocols.

FAQ

What is the difference between corded and uncorded earplug options?

Corded earplugs have a thin, flexible cord that helps keep the plugs together and makes them easier to retrieve, especially in noisy or fast‑moving environments. Uncorded plugs are completely free of any tether, offering a more discreet appearance and reducing the chance of the cord snagging on equipment.

Are the earplugs suitable for people with small ear canals?

Yes. The foam plugs are tapered and made from a slow‑recovery polyurethane that expands gently, allowing them to conform to a wide range of ear canal sizes, including smaller canals, while maintaining a comfortable seal.

How often should the earplugs be replaced?

For optimal performance, replace the foam earplugs after each use or when they become dirty, compressed, or lose their shape. The dispenser’s one‑pair release system helps ensure that each worker receives a fresh pair for every shift.

Can the dispenser be mounted on a wall or safety board?

Yes. The dispenser includes pre‑drilled mounting holes that allow it to be securely attached to walls, safety boards, or toolboxes, keeping it within easy reach for all personnel.

Is the product compliant with OSHA hearing protection standards?

Absolutely. With an NRR of 33 dB, the Moldex SparkPlugs PlugStation meets and exceeds OSHA’s requirements for hearing protection in high‑noise environments, providing reliable safety for workers.
