The Half Mask Respirator (No Filters) is a builder's half mask with its filters taken out. It is protective gear worn in the Mask slot. With new filters fitted, it becomes a working Half Mask Respirator again.
Without filters, the mask still keeps the face warm and dry. It still stops some scratches and bites to the head. Its real value is as the shell of a respirator, waiting for a fresh set of Respirator Filters.
This mask comes from taking the filters out of a Half Mask Respirator. A respirator whose filters have run out can be emptied the same way. The Tailor is the best occupation for protective gear. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The mask covers the head. It blocks most wind and all rain on the face, which helps on a cold, wet day. It stops about a third of scratches and a tenth of bites to the head. That matches the filtered respirator exactly.
Fresh filters add protection from corpse sickness, the illness that comes from time spent near rotting bodies.
The mask adds a fair amount of discomfort. It sits firmly and rarely falls off in a fight. It sits in the Mask slot. It cannot be worn with a gas mask, a breathing mask, a breathing apparatus or a full helmet.
Tailoring
The mask wears down quickly, since each hit has an even chance to cost it condition. Research Craft on the empty mask teaches Make Improvised Gas Mask.

The empty mask comes from the Remove Respirator Filters recipe used on a Half Mask Respirator. Fitting new filters with Attach Filter to Respirator turns it back into a working respirator. That recipe works on a mask in the hands or one being worn.
