A Spare Mask for an Emergency Escape Breathing Device (EEBD) is a replacement or backup facepiece designed to ensure a secure, airtight seal and unobstructed airflow during critical escape situations. Constructed from flame-resistant, hypoallergenic materials, this mask typically fits standard EEBD cylinders or regulators from common industry brands. Having an extra or replacement mask on hand helps maintain equipment readiness and extends the overall service life of your EEBD kit.
