The '''gas mask''' is a piece of [[apparel]] added by the [[Biotech DLC]]. 

== Acquisition ==
Gas masks can be crafted at a [[{{P|Production Facility 1}}]] once the [[Research#{{P|Required Research}}|{{P|Required Research}}]] research project has been completed. They require {{Required Resources}} and {{Ticks|{{P|Work To Make}}}} of work.

== Summary ==
Gas masks increase [[Toxic Environment Resistance]] by {{+|80%}}, causing [[tox gas]], [[toxic fallout]], [[rot stink]], and [[pollution]] to be 20% effective. It does not protect from [[disease]]s, which are not contagious between pawns in RimWorld, nor does it prevent [[toxic buildup]] from attacks such as the [[cobra]]'s bite. [[Quality]] does not affect this resistance.

{{Apparel Nudity Note}}

=== Armor and insulation bug ===
Gas masks have armor and insulation values defined, but only as [[stuff]] effect multipliers. These require a material to complete the equation and actually produce a final value. As the gas mask is not stuffable, this is impossible to see in the game.

This results in the gas mask offering no armor or insulation at all.

== Analysis ==
For many purposes, such as against rot stink, a [[face mask]]'s 50% toxic resistance is sufficient. As face masks don't cover the head, [[simple helmet]]s and [[flak helmet]]s can be used alongside it. That said, unlike the face mask, the gas mask prevents the immediate effects of [[tox gas]] on sight, breathing, and pain, in addition to the effect of reducing toxic buildup more than a face mask.

The gas mask offers no absolutely no protection. The only positive effect of quality is a lowered [[deterioration]] rate.
