Silicone Putty (Moldable) Earplugs
Moldable silicone putty earplugs that are shaped by hand and pressed over the outer ear canal opening, rather than inserted into the canal like a molded plug. SNR 28dB / NRR 20dB (ANSI S3.19-1974). Offered in kids (15x15mm) and adult (20x20mm) ball sizes. Important: this product must not be inserted into the ear canal — it covers the opening only.

FAQ
Can this be inserted into the ear canal like a regular earplug?
No — the manufacturer's own warning states this product should only cover the opening of the ear and must not be forced into the ear canal, and should not be used for scuba diving or other deep-water diving. This is a materially different use pattern from our other earplug categories and must be represented accurately to buyers.
Is it safe for children?
The manufacturer flags a choking hazard due to small parts and specifies adult supervision is required if used by children; it is not intended for professional or industrial use, and anyone with a perforated or infected eardrum should consult a doctor before use. These are manufacturer safety warnings, not our own clinical claims.
