Abstract
A tool, such as a respirator or gas mask, is provided. The respirator includes a body, a filter, an upper and lower strap, and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism enables quick-release for fitting and/or adjusting the respirator on a user's head or face. In various embodiments, inelastic and elastic properties of the straps and/or a cord in the entwined region of the locking mechanism enhance the quick-release fit and adjustment of the locking mechanism.
