Description
High-Density Acoustic Foam Replacement Windscreen for Boom Microphones
Eliminate disruptive environmental wind pop and ambient breath distortion for clear transmissions.
The Motorola 5080384M20 is a professional-grade replacement foam windscreen designed to preserve pristine voice transmission quality across demanding work environments. Integrating fresh Motorola 5080384M20 foam socks into your active communications equipment inventory allows wind turbine crews, industrial plant managers, and mobile security patrols to bypass ambient interference. By dampening sudden bursts of high-velocity air before they strike the mic diaphragm, this simple accessory prevents voice clipping and distortion during outdoor operations.
Constructed from premium, porous acoustic polymer foam, this lightweight protective sleeve offers structural flexibility without muffling or attenuating natural vocal frequencies. Regular replacement of boom microphone windscreens is a foundational hygienic practice for shared fleet operations, preventing cross-contamination while protecting the electronics from long-term salt corrosion from human breath. Its precision molded internal cavity ensures a snug, compression-fit grip that prevents the windscreen from slipping off during fast physical movements.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Premium Wind Pop Suppression: Open-cell acoustic foam dissipates sharp bursts of wind and breath, delivering flat, unclipped voice tracking over the airwaves.
-
Transducer Moisture Protection: Acts as a breathable physical barrier, protecting delicate internal electret components from saliva buildup and weather moisture.
-
Hygienic Shared Deployment: Low-cost disposable maintenance piece allows effortless sanitation swap-outs between different operator shift turnarounds.
-
Snug Slip-Resistant Fit: Specially calibrated internal diameter slides smoothly over standard boom elements and holds tight without requiring messy adhesives.
-
Acoustically Transparent Matrix: Specially formulated polymer structure provides complete physical protection without reducing mic sensitivity or dropping high frequencies.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should our repair depot replace the headset foam windscreens?
For optimal voice clarity and baseline hygienic performance, windscreens should be replaced every 90 to 120 days under standard workshop conditions. In high-moisture environments, heavy manufacturing yards, or shared-fleet scenarios, monthly swap-outs are strongly recommended.
Will this foam sock muffle my voice or reduce the volume of my transmissions?
No. The Motorola 5080384M20 is fabricated using professional-grade open-cell acoustic foam. This structural matrix is completely transparent to audio waves, allowing your vocal signature to pass through seamlessly while scattering localized high-velocity air pops.
Can these replacement windscreens be washed and reused multiple times?
While you can gently rinse the foam under clean, lukewarm water to clear surface dust, you should never use harsh chemical soaps, solvents, or high heat to dry them. Because open-cell foam degrades over time from facial oils and breath moisture, a full replacement is always preferred.
Is an adhesive or locking collar required to keep this foam windscreen from falling off?
No adhesives are required. The internal diameter of the foam hollow is specifically engineered to expand slightly as it slides onto compatible boom housings, establishing a reliable friction-fit lock that stays secure during standard physical movements.
Can this item fit alternative third-party aviation or commercial gaming headsets?
This accessory is explicitly dimensioned to fit genuine Motorola commercial headset boom assemblies, such as the PMLN5101 and RMN5058. Third-party headsets utilize varying capsule geometry and may cause the foam to stretch, tear, or slide loose.
What type of hardware warranty covers this disposable foam accessory piece?
As a standard consumable maintenance accessory, this product arrives shielded against premature manufacturing defects, material tearing out of the box, or split seam lines under a 1-year factory warranty.
