ear tip

Earbud's silicone sleeve

An ear tip is the soft, removable piece that fits into the ear canal on earbuds or in-ear headphones.

Most earbuds come with multiple ear tips in different sizes for a better fit: The medium ear tips were too loose, so I switched to the small ones.

Ear tips are typically made of silicone or foam.
