Merry Christmas to you as well.

The only (flawed) reason I can think of for making the exhale valve rubber so thin is to enhance its voice diaphragm mimicking abilities. I'm just thinking back to when I was making waterproof containers for my speaker. Thin materials (or better a thin diaphragm) transmitted sounds infinitely better than thick materials. Just my .2 cents.

@Weaponsandstuff93

Yeah that would make perfect sense, but I think that's why most masks use separate voice diaphragms to exhale valves, because combing them weakens the mask.

Another great vid! Happy Holidays!

I own one of these m51 masks and the exhale diaphragm does have some problems if it gets too dusty. Nothing some water and gentle cleaning cant fix! Makes a great painting/utility mask

Finally figured out what kind of gas mask that I had because of this video, very informative.

We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year

Good video and happy holidays!

Glad you like it, Avon masks are very good.

Maybe the the French coated the exhale valve with some sort of wax or something along the lines of it, to prevent it ripping during gas attack

There are now some M53s Ebay, located in Texas. The seller doesn't ship outside of the US but maybe if you had a stateside friend they could grab it and send it to you.

Hey again, weaponsandstuff. What would you recommend as a good first gas mask? I don’t intend to wear it often, I’d just like to have one because I think they’re quite interesting and cool. Anything that isn’t too expensive would be preferred. Thanks!

I've done a few videos on good cheap surplus masks but maybe try the Israeli M15, 4a1 or the German M65.

Trying to find an ANP M51/53, seem rather rare despite most pictures of French soldiers wearing that rather than the M51. Also found a supplier for the French chemical suit seen in the first Gulf War. It's called a Tenue 66, a French website called Toutencamo sells them for around €20, postage is around €20 too.

Weaponsandstuff93 It's a shame suits are harder to identify by name than masks. They typically have really generic names so finding them, let alone buying them is a struggle.

Seeing the voice diaphragm rubber while you have the mask on starting around 8:15 looks like the thin rubber will tear open any second 😢

They might have done a few different designs over the years they were used by both France and Belgium, as well as there being a later M53 version, and all the previous French, Belgian and Italian masks of similar design.

I love this kind of masks, very easy to produce/cheap and effective, If the exhale rubber was stronger it would be better than the Gp5 because the Gp5 has a bad vision not to mention it makes it almost impossible to communicate and you can barely hear while the M51 your ears are exposed and the exhale rubber works like a speech diafragm

Weaponsandstuff93 I’m pretty sure it’s from the 50s, I can’t really explain what kind of shape it is.

I own the ANP m51 - 3 and got it surplus, but it was riddled with talc powder, which came out in one wash. I got it surplus for 10$, and the seal works alright. It's very uncomfortable and the tisseau tubes are shitty, in that the eyes still fog like a bitch. The little exhale valve is very delicate and can fuck up occasionally, which would kill some poor soul on the field. I have an extra, if you would like to have it, free of charge, to test and all that.
