MIRA Safety Gas Mask Replacement Parts Kit

Product Description

Keep your gas mask in peak condition with the MIRA Safety Gas Mask Replacement Parts Kit. Whether it’s a matter of wear and tear or just passing long years in storage, your gas mask has several parts that absolutely must be replaced at specific intervals in order to maximize the protection your respirator offers—and minimize the risk of unexpected exposure. In most cases, wear parts should be replaced at least every five years for masks in storage and more frequently for masks in active use. 

  • Compatible with the CM-6M, CM-7M, CM-8M, and TAPR
  • Valve parts last up to 5 years from normal use

The Essentials Kit

This kit is compatible with the CM-6M (all variants), CM-7M, CM-8M, and the TAPR. Please note, for the CM-7M, CM-8M, and TAPR, inner mask valves will not be necessary. 

The Essentials Gas Mask Replacement Parts Kit includes:

(4) Inner Mask Valves – MIRA Safety gas masks come with an oro-nasal cup (also called an inner mask) to prevent fogging and help redirect the flow of CO2. These inner valves are meant to be installed on the oro-nasal cup itself, along with the inhalation ports to prevent the backflow of filtered air back through the filter.

(1) Exhalation Valve – This is one of the most critical components for ensuring your mask seals properly and performs reliably. The exhalation valve expands as you breathe out, then immediately snaps shut to protect you from dangerous environments. Your mask MUST have a functioning Exhalation Valve to work properly. 

(1) Exhalation Valve Cover – This cover protects the exhalation valve. While it sits snugly over the exhalation port and is made of robust materials, it should be replaced if you see any signs of damage or if it is misplaced. 

(1) 40 mm Plug – Most MIRA Safety gas masks have two ports for gas mask filters. By plugging one port, you can use a single filter for a lighter setup that’s easier to wear while shouldering a rifle or moving around.

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING: Although installation is straightforward, we recommend having these parts installed by a professional respirator service center to ensure the mask seals properly after service. Professional respirator service centers use a negative pressure fit tester to ensure that there are no leaks after new parts are installed. If you choose to install these values yourself, make sure to conduct a negative pressure test to ensure the mask is properly sealing.

Military surplus comes in a variety of different conditions based the three " " rule: What, Where, When.

  • Depending on what the item is will generally determine the amount of use and what it was used for. This is important because some items do not endure the torture of being in the field for prolonged periods of time, while others might.
  1. Ex: Dress Uniforms are not worn in combat, therefore generally, there is lighter use than issued combat/working uniforms.

  • Knowing where the item most likely was issued/stored will generally determine the environment it was exposed to. This is important because some items are exposed to harsher conditions than others, or are straight from storage.
  1. Ex: Uniforms & Gear issued in the Vietnam War saw extreme heat and moister, giving those items specific textures/smells/common problems, while the same items issued to troops in occupied Europe do not have those attributes (Generally better conditions). 
  2. Ex: Uniforms & Gear stored in a controlled environment (warehouses or similar areas) feel and smell different than if it is stored in a non-controlled environment (Random areas/outside/or exposed to elements)

  • Time is a huge factor, when something was issued generally determines the age of the item. As time goes by everything ages, this is the circle of life and it does apply to inanimate objects, like military surplus. Items will show signs of age, typically tarnished metal/fading/stains/rips/holes/rot/smell. The exception to the rule is NOS ( New old stock) items or ones stored carefully in controlled environments.
  1. Ex: Uniforms & Gear from World War 2 are generally made of canvas/leather/twill or HBT fabric, and are close to 100 years old. These items have more than likely seen combat or were reissued in the Korean or Vietnam Wars. Extensive use and the fact that they are almost a century old will reflect the condition & price. This applies to any era. 
  2. Ex: Uniforms & Gear from the original factory box, or items stored carefully in controlled environments will generally retain their durability and "new" look. The age of an item sometimes is not a factor BUT only when it is properly stored or carefully looked after.
