GAS MASKS

The CM-8M tactical full-face respirator is a next-gen CBRN mask, specially engineered to meet and exceed the strictest military requirements. Thanks to a unique new visor design, it provides unparalleled visibility combined with optics compatibility, along with a six-point mesh head harness for added stability. Like all MIRA Safety CBRN gas masks, it also provides trusted protection from a full spectrum of toxic industrial chemicals (TIC) and chemical warfare agents (CWA) including chemical, biological and nuclear threats such as radioactive dust, noxious gas, vaporized pollutants and more.

Maximum Situational Awareness

The CM-8M features a radically re-engineered visor that combines an unmatched field of view (over 92%), with a contoured shape that’s 100% compatible with popular Night Vision, Rifle Scopes and Thermal Optic setups. That means preserving crucial peripheral vision while ensuring functionality in even the most hostile environments. That means not just an enhanced field of view, but enhanced overall awareness—allowing you to quickly and confidently assess and engage threats as needed.

CM-8M Full Face Respirator Sizing

For the initial launch, the CM-8M will come in one universal size. The fit will be similar to the medium CM-7M, and the CM-6M, which also come in one universal size. We do not recommend this mask for people with smaller-than-average head shapes, nor do we recommend it for above-average head shapes. Always conduct a negative pressure test to ensure you are getting a tight seal, and conduct this test each time when donning the mask.

The CM-8M has been tested with a wide variety of high-cut helmets and shown to integrate seamlessly. However, if the wearer has a small head, the mask may not fit well with a helmet.

Mission-Flexible

As opposed to some full-face respirators that are extremely specialized and mission-specific, the CM-8M was designed as a mission-flexible upgrade for civilians, law enforcement and military alike. Since it’s not a dedicated military mask, that means everyone can tap into the same level of protection that’s trusted by top Special Forces.

MIRA Safety Strategic Support

The CM-8M is part of the MIRA Safety family of masks; which means it uses the same filter cartridges, components and optional upgrades as your existing MIRA Safety masks. It’s compatible with the MIRA Safety Microphone System and Replacement Parts Kit, and it features the same basic construction as your existing MIRA Safety masks; allowing for rapid transition and upgrade to the CM-8M from existing platforms.

Technical Specifications

The CM-8M gas mask is made from thick bromobutyl rubber (CBRN-compliant) with a polycarbonate mask and a 6-point mesh head harness to ensure a rock-solid fit for users of all sizes.

The key improvement for the new CM-8M is its uniquely-contoured polycarbonate visor, combining unparalleled field-of-view with a flat front that works perfectly with all your optics and NVG systems.

We’ve also refined our existing gas mask designs, maximizing ergonomics and minimizing the overall size of the mask. The full-face respirator’s inner mask is made from a special hypoallergenic compound that prevents fogging and reduces carbon dioxide(CO2) content in the mask’s inner space, improving comfort for long hours of potential usage.

The CM-8M features a central speech diaphragm that ensures at least 95% intelligibility of speech; however the gas mask microphone is strongly recommended as an upgrade for all MIRA Safety masks. MIRA Safety replacement parts are compatible with the CM-8M mask, and more new accessories will be available for the platform soon.

Like all MIRA Safety masks, the CM-8M is designed for use with “NATO standard” filter cartridges (Rd 40 x 1/7” thread in accordance with the EN 148-1 standard).

Selection of a suitable filter depends on the type and concentration of anticipated toxic agent. The CM-8M tactical mask equipped with a TIC or CWA filter is only safe for use in an environment containing at least 19.5% oxygen. The principles of filter selection and application are described in the filter user guides.

The CM-8M tactical gas mask may be used in class 1 explosive environments only. The CM-8M mask meets all of the requirements for class 3 of the EN 136 standard. It’s a great choice for riot gear or as a riot control gas mask.

MIRA Safety MD-1 Children's Gas Mask - Full-Face Protective Respirator for CBRN Defense

Regular price $199.97 Save $-199.97

The MD-1 is one of the only dedicated, reusable children’s gas mask available on the market today.

It’s engineered to meet the same strict standards as our adult masks, with a lighter weight, more compact size, and detachable hose for reduced weight and improved comfort. It uses the same NATO standard 40 mm filters as all other MIRA Safety gas masks and is also compatible with our Powered Air-Purifying Respirator (see below).

The MD-1 Children’s Gas Mask is available in two sizes:

Medium: Children 2 to 6 years old

Large: Kids 6 to 12 years old

Designed to Protect Children Against:

Poisonous substances
Biological aerosols
Radioactive dust
Iodine radionuclides and their organic compounds
Aerosols (dust, fog, fumes)

Key Features:

Manufactured in 2021 with a 10-year shelf life
Articulating mesh 5-point head harness for added comfort
Made from durable and chemical-resistant natural rubber
Designed with a panoramic polycarbonate visor (>70% field of vision) for added situational awareness
Comes with an oro-nasal inner mask to prevent fogging

Uses standard 40 mm NATO threaded filter cartridges
Comes with a 40 mm tube that can be used to reduce the weight on a child's face, allowing the filter to be carried in a pouch
Weighs in at just over 1 lb. with hose attached
Available in two sizes for children of different ages
Made in Serbia

Protection for those that need it most

Nothing is more important than the health and welfare of our children. Yet, there has been no protection available for them in the event of a fire, major natural disaster, nuclear event, or terrorist attack … until now.

Our MD-1 Children’s Gas Mask is one of the only reusable CBRN full-face respirator designed with the special needs of children in mind.

Unlike expensive, single-use alternatives, the MD-1 uses the same 40 mm filters as most adult masks mask, allowing you to rely on a single supply of canisters (like our cutting-edge technology MIRA canister filters that feature an extended 20-year shelf life) to maximize the odds of survival in the event of a disaster. It’s also compatible with accessories like our Powered Air-Purifying Respirator (PAPR).

Originally designed as a child respirator to meet strict protective standards for the government of Yugoslavia, we’ve adapted and improved on this rugged design to bring it into the twenty-first century, with an enhanced head harness, updated materials, and compatibility with 40 mm NATO threaded filters.

Proper respiratory protection is especially vital for young children, as they are still growing. They are far more susceptible to airborne contaminants and respiratory damage, which could cause a lifetime of adverse health effects. This is especially true of radioactive contaminants, which can dangerously increase the risk of cancer and other life-threatening diseases.

Because of its smaller size, this children’s gas mask weighs far less than an adult mask, with optimized airflow for easier breathing and reduced fatigue. Using the filter hose attachment (included), it weighs approximately 18 ounces.

Applications:

Emergency preparedness
Natural disasters
Technology-related accidents accompanied by hazardous substance emissions

Kit includes:

(1) MD-1 Childrens Gas Mask

(1) 40 mm NATO threaded extension hose
