SWATCOM SC20 Electronic Ear Plugs
Hearing protection no longer means living in silence; the SC20 brings you natural ambient awareness with exceptional noise suppression.
Ear tips:
Ear canals are sensitive and each one is unique, so we’ve provided a selection of sizes and materials. There are six ear tips to choose from to help you find the best fit for your unique ears. It will be necessary to change the ear tips from time to time. Never use a damaged ear tip.
Safety:
The SC20N and SC20E hearing protection are engineered to combat both prolonged loud and impulse noise, so whether you’re running a printing press or firing a gun, the novo will suppress all harmful sounds.
SNR:
- With Foam Eartips: 24 SNR
- With Silicone Eartips: 23 SNR

THE IMPORTANCE OF SHOOTING EAR PROTECTION
Designed specifically for the purpose of protecting your hearing from high-impulse gunshot noise, shooting ear defenders are a must-have item.
Every trigger pull unleashes a blast that can spike above 160 dB—louder than a jet taking off at close range. At that intensity, permanent inner-ear damage starts in a single shot.
Unlike a bruised shoulder, noise-induced hearing loss never heals; the tiny hair cells that translate vibration into sound simply don’t grow back. Tinnitus—the maddening “ringing” many shooters develop—often follows the same irreversible path.
Don’t risk permanent hearing damage; wear adequate and certified ear protection for shooting when in the vicinity of gunfire.


CHOOSING THE RIGHT EAR DEFENDERS FOR SHOOTING
When you pick shooting ear defenders, start with the numbers: look for at least 25 dB SNR (≈ 22 dB NRR) for outdoor rifles and shotguns, and 30 dB SNR or higher—or “double-up” with plugs—on indoor ranges or around magnum calibres.
Decide whether you need electronic muffs (which amplify voices and clamp gun-shot noise in milliseconds) or simpler passive ones; then make sure the cups clear your stock, seal around slim-temple glasses, and stay comfortable all session—gel cushions and a sub-350 g weight help.
Match the design to your environment: low-profile, camo-coloured muffs with fast cut-off for hunting; wind-screened mics for clay grounds; high-attenuation or combined plug-and-muff setups for echo-prone indoor bays.
