Hearing is precious and can be easily damaged. Wearing low pressure, non-irritating uvex earmuffs allows wearers to reliably protect their hearing - even when worn for long periods of time. The uvex K-series earmuffs deliver outstanding comfort and a pressure free fit through their use of lightweight materials, compact and extra-soft cushioned earpieces, together with a breathable headband. Remember, the best hearing protection is the one that gets worn! ![uvex K-series over-the-head earmuffs](https://d3rbxgeqn1ye9j.cloudfront.net/images/GIh_OdRpJmbUPL2gFaOoVh6uwtBEbcJSnINRCCac_ek/w:345/h:291/fn:Y3NtX2stc2VyaWVzLWZlYXR1cmVzXzI2MGEwYjA1ZmM:t/cb:283644fbe7a0aea7be282fe656d6c98f63a7b648/el:1/fq:jpeg:85:avif:70:webp:80/aHR0cHM6Ly9kM3JieGdlcW4xeWU5ai5jbG91ZGZyb250Lm5ldC9maWxlYWRtaW4vd3d3LnV2ZXgtc2FmZXR5LmNvLnVrL01lZGlhL3Byb2R1Y3RzL2stc2VyaWVzLWZlYXR1cmVzLmpwZz8xNjM0NjM1Njk3 "uvex K-series over-the-head earmuffs") Choosing the right product using the SNR method ------------------------------------------------- **Goal = noise level – SNR value** The objective when choosing suitable hearing protection is to achieve an effective residual noise level of between 70 dB and 80 dB for the wearer. If sound absorption is too high (over-protection), this can result in an inability to communicate and cause feelings of isolation. uvex K-series is available with 28 dB (**uvex K1**), 32 dB (**uvex K2**), 33 dB (**uvex K3**) or 35 dB (**uvex K4**) ### Contact us now Fill in your details below and a uvex representative will be in touch: [ ![28 dB uvex
