ESAB Savage A40 PAPR Pre-Filter Replacement (0700002404) — PPE / Respirator Consumable

If you run an ESAB Savage A40 PAPR, the pre-filter is a simple part that protects the main filter and helps keep airflow consistent in dusty, fume-heavy work. This ESAB pre-filter replacement is sold as a pack of 5 and is intended to drop into the Savage A40 PAPR system as a routine maintenance consumable. It is a low-cost failure point compared to the downtime of running a restricted filter stack.
