3M Peltor PTL HT listen only headband headset offers environmental listening with the push of a button. This comfortable and durable communications headset allows for long term use under demanding conditions. 3M Peltor PTL earmuffs help provide hearing protection, yet allow temporary listening to outside voices and sounds without removing the headset. An earcup button with a Push-to-Listen (PTL) mode eliminates the practice of lifting off the headset when talking with or listening to another person.

Simply press the earcup button to provide a 30 s boost in the volume of conversation and other sounds. Workers needing to talk over details of a job or receive instructions can keep the hearing protectors on. An auto-switch returns earmuffs to normal hearing protection mode after 30 s. The wide and liquid/foam filled earmuff cushions fit gently to help create a comfortable, noise blocking seal.

These hearing protectors are commonly worn in the following industries: agriculture, airport workers, construction, heavy equipment operators, manufacturing, petroleum refineries and racing.
