Combat Arms™ Earplugs »
3M’s Dual-Ended Combat Arms™ Earplugs, Version 2 (CAEv2) were used by the military from 2003-2015 during combat and training exercises. It is alleged by the government that the 3M Dual-Ended Combat Arms™ Earplugs did not meet the noise reduction rating (NRR) that 3M claimed. Due to the alleged faulty nature of the ear plugs, service men and women were exposed to higher levels of damaging noise than the device was supposed to allow. Dangerous noise levels can cause permanent damage to the human ear resulting in tinnitus and partial or total hearing loss.
