How to make Soviet filters safe to use
0How to make Soviet filters safe to use.
Soviet filters as we all know contain asbestos, however a lot of people want to use these filters as part of costumes.
I have devised a method to make these filters safe.
You will need to buy a P3 cotton filter, cut it to shape and install it either in the 40mm mask filter intake port or in a 40mm hose filter intake port, this will increase the breathing resistance of the mask but any asbestos or charcoal dust will stick to the P3 filter and it will not enter your lungs.
In this video I demonstrate how to do it with a ShM-41 respirator (similar to a GP-5), this method will work on any Soviet respirator however except for the PBF.
Obviously there are still some risks assosiated with this, and using a modern filter is still safer and will work. Decades old Soviet filters are long since expired so there is little probability they will actually still work, however if you want a cosmetic filter that's original and still want to be safe, this method will work for you.
Demonstrated in the video with an EO-16 filter, but this will work just fine with any Soviet 40mm filter or mask combination.
