Emergency Gear | The CM-8M tactical, air-purifying respirator is a next-gen CBRN device, specially engineered to meet and exceed the strictest military requirements. With a unique new visor design, it provides unparalleled visibility combined with optics compatibility, along with a six-point mesh head harness for added stability. Like all MIRA Safety CBRN devices, it provides trusted protection from a full spectrum of toxic industrial chemicals (TIC) and chemical agents, including chemical, biological, and nuclear threats such as radioactive dust, noxious gas, vaporized pollutants, and more. This makes it an essential component for emergency preparedness and survival.

Emergency Gear Maximum Situational Awareness
The CM-8M features a radically re-engineered visor that combines an unmatched field of view (over 92%) with a contoured shape that’s 100% compatible with popular night vision, rifle scopes, and thermal optic setups. This ensures enhanced overall awareness, allowing you to quickly and confidently assess and engage threats as needed, making it ideal for emergency preparedness, survival, and protection during natural disasters or tactical scenarios.
Emergency Gear CM-8M Full-Face Respirator Sizing
For the initial launch, the CM-8M will come in one universal size. The fit will be similar to the medium CM-7M and the CM-6M, which also come in one universal size. We do not recommend this device for people with smaller-than-average head shapes, nor do we recommend it for above-average head shapes. Always conduct a negative pressure test to ensure you are getting a tight seal, and conduct this test each time when donning.
Emergency Gear Mission-Flexible
Unlike some full-face respirators that are extremely specialized and mission-specific, the CM-8M was designed as a mission-flexible upgrade for civilians, law enforcement, and military alike. This means everyone can tap into the same level of protection that’s trusted by top Special Forces, making it a versatile and reliable choice for any emergency preparedness kit, bug out bag, or survival gear collection.
Emergency Gear MIRA Safety Strategic Support
The CM-8M is part of the MIRA Safety family of devices, which means it uses the same filter cartridges, components, and optional upgrades as your existing MIRA Safety equipment. It’s compatible with the MIRA Safety Microphone System and Replacement Parts Kit, allowing for rapid transition and upgrade to the CM-8M from existing platforms.
