Filter Plugs
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
In the Underhives and even the lower districts of the Hive Cities on worlds like Necromunda, the air is frequently filled with clouds of poisons and pollutants or the ubiquitous hive smog. To combat these hazards, Filter Plugs (also known as "flugs") are used by millions.[1]
Function
Flugs are small devices which the Underhivers insert firmly up their nose. They filter out the worst of the pollutants in the air, and can sometimes even offer a degree of protection against gas weapons.[1] However, filter plugs do not enable a creature using it to breathe underwater or in a vacuum.[2]
