Browning HDR Earmuffs

[dellwas]

This is for those of you that work around metals, or noisy environments. I like to build things from time to time out of metal and get exposed to noisy tools such as grinders, saws, etc. I picked up pair of Browning HDR earmuffs. They work great even though they are designed for shooting. They have a NRR rating of 37, the highest I've seen. I'm glad I got them...

So it reduces noise by about 15 dB.

Yup, formula is: (37-7)/2 = 15 https://www.coopersafety.com/earplugs-noise-reduction

I actually bought a second set, but this time Peltor x5a's. The Brownings will be used in the garage/workshop, the Peltor's in the house, or for use on the Tractor. Now all I need is a good set of noise cancelling earplugs to use on the Harley.
