Replacement Gel Cushions

The 3M Gel Hearing Protector Replacement Cushions are a premium solution for anyone looking to enhance the comfort and performance of their WorkTunes or Peltor Sport hearing protection. Designed for extended wear, these super-soft and conformable gel cushions provide a superior fit and increased comfort compared to traditional foam ear pads. With compatibility for several 3M models, including 90543, 90544, and TAC300, TAC500, as well as other Peltor Sport models, these gel cushions are an excellent upgrade for anyone who values both protection and comfort during prolonged use. Design & Build: The 3M Gel Hearing Protector Replacement Cushions are crafted from high-quality gel material that offers a soft, cushioned fit around the ears. Unlike foam ear pads, which can compress and lose their cushioning over time, these gel cushions maintain their form and provide lasting comfort. The gel is engineered to conform to the shape of the wearer’s ears, creating a more secure, snug fit that helps to block out external noise more effectively. The cushions are designed to fit seamlessly with WorkTunes and Peltor Sport models, providing an easy and hassle-free replacement option for worn or damaged ear cushions. Installation is simple, and the cushions stay securely in place, providing a stable and reliable seal. Comfort: One of the most noticeable improvements with the 3M Gel Cushions is the comfort factor. The super-soft gel material molds to the shape of your ears, relieving pressure points that are typically associated with foam ear cushions. The gel provides a gentle but effective seal, which ensures that you can wear the hearing protection for extended periods without experiencing discomfort or irritation. The soft gel helps minimize the pressure on the sides of the head, which is especially important for those who need to wear ear protection for several hours at a time, such as during long workdays, shooting sessions, or outdoor activities. Noise Protection: While comfort is a key focus, the 3M Gel Cushions also improve the overall noise-blocking performance of your hearing protectors. The snug fit and gel design help create a better seal around the ears, blocking out more ambient noise. This can be particularly beneficial for people working in loud environments or those using their hearing protection in noisy outdoor settings, as it enhances the effectiveness of noise reduction. By ensuring a better fit and seal, these gel cushions contribute to better sound isolation, which is essential for both safety and focus during activities such as industrial work, shooting, or construction. Durability: The 3M Gel Hearing Protector Cushions are built to last. Unlike traditional foam cushions, which can compress and degrade over time, the gel cushions are designed for extended durability and retain their softness and shape even after prolonged use. The high-quality gel material resists wear and tear, ensuring that the cushions won’t crack, break, or lose their cushioning properties over time. These gel cushions are also easy to clean, which helps to maintain their performance and hygiene over the long term. Compatibility: The 3M Gel Cushions are specifically designed to fit the WorkTunes (90543, 90544) and Peltor Sport (TAC300, TAC500, 97040, 97041, 97042, 90565, 90566) hearing protection models. This wide compatibility makes them a versatile upgrade for various users who rely on these particular models for noise protection. Whether you're using them in a noisy workshop, during shooting sports, or in any other loud environment, these cushions are designed to work flawlessly with your existing earmuffs. Overall Impression: The 3M Gel Hearing Protector Replacement Cushions are an excellent choice for anyone looking to improve the comfort, durability, and performance of their WorkTunes or Peltor Sport hearing protection. With super-soft, conformable gel material, these cushions provide lasting comfort, a better seal, and enhanced noise-blocking capabilities, making them an essential upgrade for those who wear their hearing protection for extended periods. Whether you're working in a noisy environment, shooting at the range, or simply seeking a more comfortable and effective hearing protection solution, these gel cushions provide a noticeable improvement in both comfort and performance. With easy installation, long-lasting durability, and a superior fit, the 3M Gel Cushions are highly recommended for anyone using compatible 3M or Peltor Sport models

Originally brought an aftermarket brand that I returned, but don't waist your time. These are a perfect replacement for the older bluetooth work tunes connect. They fit, snap into place and work well, comfortable, provide excellent noise reduction,/ sound quality. Go with 3M they are the best and we'll worth the money.

These 3mm gel ear pads made a huge difference for my Peltor Comtac headset. They’re incredibly comfortable, even during long wear under a helmet. The gel conforms to your head and eliminates pressure points that the standard pads just couldn’t handle. Seal quality is excellent—no sound leakage, and my comms remain crystal clear. They also install easily and stay secure without shifting or peeling. If you’re using Comtacs for extended shifts, range time, or duty use, these are a must-have. Night and day comfort difference. Highly recommend!

Easy fit

I contacted 3M to make sure these would fit my WorkTunes Connect with Bluetooth, part number 90543-4DC. They responded and said these are the ONLY replacements at this time so it seems the original foam pads are no longer made. The first attempt to remove the original pad per the instructions resulted in the pad coming off the yellow base plate. The base plate has to be removed to install the new gel pads. I had to use a small screwdriver between the base plate and housing to get it to snap out. Going back together was fairly easy. The thin foam and fabric inner was stuck in the old base plate and had to be removed and placed in the earpiece before installing the new pads. I installed the new by hooking one side in and working around the pad until it finally snapped in. Be aware it can pinch your finger if you get it between the pad base and the housing. (ask me how I know, OUCH) The first failed attempt to remove the old pad showed the pad part is just glued to the base plate. This would indicate the less expensive generic replacements that just have an adhesive backing should work if you leave the base plate on and just peel the original pad off. I am saving my original base plates in case I decide to buy the generic pads next time. I haven't used the gel pads yet so I will update on performance after I have used them. 3M told me they aren't necessarily more durable than the original foam pads but said most people find them more comfortable. Time will tell. Ear pad and headband padding is about the only short coming to the hearing protectors. My original set with FM had both pads and the head band degrade within 2 years and these blue tooth pads went in a year and a half. 3M should work on better materials or just give you a spare set of both with the units.

Factory replacement gel pads for 3M headphones. They look great. Improve the seal around the ears. Reduce the noise coming in so you don't have to have it as loud. Appears to be of better quality than the original foam ones. Works as expected.

These work great and are very comfortable. I use them on my 3m headphones that I use during yard work.

Very happy with the purchase. Would buy again.
