Respirator – RPB Nova 3 with Leather Cape & Hot Tube, Includes Medium Side Pads, NIOSH TC-19C-456 Type CE

Part Number: NV3-704-52
Weight: 6.00 lbs

The RPB® Nova 3® Respirator with Leather Cape and Hot Tube is built for abrasive blasting professionals working in cold climates and high-impact industrial conditions. Fully certified under NIOSH Approval No. TC-19C-456 Type CE, this respirator system provides complete respiratory, eye, and face protection while offering superior durability and heated breathing air for harsh environments.

The Hot Tube warms incoming compressed air, helping operators maintain comfortable breathing temperatures during winter blasting, unheated facility work, or cold-weather outdoor projects. This reduces cold stress, enhances productivity, and increases comfort during extended shifts.

The heavy-duty leather cape provides rugged upper-body protection from sparks, sharp abrasive rebound, and extreme media impact—making it the preferred choice for steel fabrication, foundries, industrial maintenance, and other heavy blasting applications.

This model also includes medium side pads, offering improved helmet stability, reduced pressure points, and enhanced comfort.
