The EDI-USA PROTEC-X is a full-face gas mask built for tactical, riot control, and emergency response environments. Designed to fit snugly against the face, it delivers protection against CS gas, CN gas, tear gas, pepper spray, other toxic industrial chemicals (TICs), and poisonous smoke. A front-mounted disposable filter canister handles chemical filtration and replaces after use. One filter ships included with every mask. The panoramic visor delivers an unobstructed full-face field of vision and carries both anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings.

Who this is for

• Law enforcement and riot control personnel who require reliable respiratory and facial protection during crowd management and chemical deployment scenarios.
• Emergency responders and hazmat-adjacent teams operating in environments with toxic industrial chemicals or poisonous smoke exposure.
• Tactical operators who need a gas mask that fits under ballistic or riot helmets without sacrificing comfort or situational awareness.

Protection coverage

The PROTEC-X protects against police anti-riot chemicals including CS, CN, tear gas, and pepper spray. Protection extends to other toxic industrial chemicals (TICs) and poisonous smoke. Chemical filtration is handled by the front-mounted disposable canister, which attaches and detaches without tools and swaps out after contamination or end of service life. The full specifications document — available for download from EDI-USA — lists the complete use guidelines and protection scope for both the mask and compatible filter canisters.

Visor and field of vision

The panoramic full-face visor gives the wearer an open field of vision with no obstructed sight lines. Both an anti-fog coating and an anti-scratch coating are applied to the visor surface, keeping optics clear in high-exertion and variable-temperature conditions. The anti-fog treatment is non-toxic.

Fit, sizing, and helmet compatibility

The PROTEC-X ships in a single size that fits all users through an adjustable suspension system. Head strap tension adjusts to match individual head size, eliminating the need to size or special-order by head circumference. The mask profile is low enough to wear under most ballistic helmets and riot helmets, maintaining integration with existing protective headwear.

Filter system

The disposable filter canister mounts to the front of the mask. One filter canister ships with every PROTEC-X purchase at no additional charge. After use or contamination, the spent canister removes and a replacement installs in its place. Contact us for bulk filter canister pricing or to request a quote for multi-unit orders.

Frequently asked questions

What chemical threats does the PROTEC-X protect against?

It protects against CS gas, CN gas, tear gas, and pepper spray — the chemicals most commonly deployed in riot control and law enforcement scenarios — as well as other toxic industrial chemicals (TICs) and poisonous smoke. The full list of covered threats appears in the EDI-USA gas mask and filter specifications document, available for download from the product page.

Does the mask come with a filter?

Yes. Every PROTEC-X ships with one disposable filter canister included. The canister mounts to the front of the mask and removes for replacement after use. Replacement canisters are available separately — contact us for pricing or bulk order inquiries.

Will this mask fit under a ballistic helmet or riot helmet?

Yes. The PROTEC-X is designed to wear under most ballistic helmets and riot helmets. The adjustable suspension system and low-profile face seal maintain a secure fit when combined with overhead protective headwear.

What size does this mask come in?

One size fits all. The adjustable head suspension system adapts to the wearer's head dimensions without requiring a separate size selection. No measuring required prior to ordering.

How is the visor treated and will it fog up during heavy use?

The panoramic visor carries a factory-applied anti-fog coating and an anti-scratch coating. The anti-fog treatment is non-toxic. High-exertion wear and temperature differentials accelerate fogging on untreated lenses; the dual coating on the PROTEC-X visor is designed to maintain clarity in those conditions.
