Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic)
Proposition 65 This product contains substances known to the state of California to cause cancer and / or reproductive toxicity.
Contains hazardous chemicals subject to the reporting requirements of Section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community right to
know Act of 1986.
Materials contained in products in the natural state do not present an inhalation, ingestion, or contact health hazard.
However,
operations such as welding, burning, sawing, brazing, and grinding, which results in elevating the temperature to
or above its melting point or results in the generation of airborne particulates may present hazards. The above operations
should be performed in well ventilated areas. The major exposure hazard is inhalation.
ACUTE:
Excessive inhalation of metallic fumes and dusts may result in irritation of eyes, nose, and throat. Also high concentrations of
fumes and dusts of iron-oxide, manganese, copper, zinc, & lead may result in metal fume fever. Typical symptoms consist of a metallic
taste in the mouth, dryness and irritation of the throat, chills and fever, and usually last from 12 to 48 hours.
CRONIC: Chronic and prolonged inhalation of high concentrations of fumes or dust of the following elements may lead to the conditions
listed opposite the element:
Iron (iron-oxide) – Pulmonary effects, siderosis.
Manganese – Bronchitis, Pneumonitis, lack of coordination.
Vanadium – No reported cases of exposure to vanadium.
Molybdenum – Pain in joints, hands, knees and feet.
Lead – Prolonged exposures can cause behavioral changes, kidney damage, periphery neuropathy characterized by decreased
hand-grip strength and adverse reproductive effects.
Zinc – None reported.
Carcinogenicity: NTP? IARC Monographs? OSHA Regulated?
N/A N/A NO
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure
Do NOT use abrasive wheel for cutting. Fumes produced during abrasive cutting may cause irritation to the eyes, respiratory tract or skin of
employees who may be sensitive to these fumes.
Medical Conditions
Generally Aggravated by Exposure,
None during normal use.
Emergency and First Aid Procedures
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air; if condition continues consult, physician.
Eye Contact: Immediately flush well with running water to remove particulate: get medical attention.
Skin Contact: If irritation develops, remove clothing and wash well with soap and water. If condition persists, Seek medical attention.
Ingestion: If significant amounts of metal or cover dust are ingested, seek medical attention.
