===================== Hazards Identification =====================
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:YES IARC:YES OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ELEC ARC WELDING MAY CREATE ONE/MORE
OF THE FOLLOWING HLTH HAZS: FUMES & GASES CAN BE DANGEROUS TO YOUR
HLTH. COMMON ENTRY IS BY INHAL. OTHER POSS RTES ARE SKIN CONT &
INGEST. SHORT-TERM (ACUTE) OVERE XP TO WELDING FUMES MAY RSLT IN
DISCOMFORT SUCH AS METAL FUME FEVER, DIZZ, NAUS/DRYNESS/IRRIT OF
NOSE, THROAT/EYES. LONG-TERM (CHRONIC) OVEREXP TO WELDING FUMES CAN
LEAD TO SIDEROSIS (IRON DEPOSITS IN LUNG) & MAY AFFECT PULM FUNC.
MANGANESE OVEREXP CAN AFFECT CNS, RSLTG IN IMPAIRED SPEECH &
MOVEMENT. BRONCH & SOME LUNG FIBROSIS HAVE BEEN REPORTED. ARC RAYS
CAN INJURE EYES & BURN SKIN. (EFTS OF OVE REXP)
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NICKEL: IARC MONOGRAPHS, VOLUME 49, PAGE
257, 1990: GROUP 2B. NTP 8TH ANNUAL REPORT ON CARCINOGENS, 1998:
REASONABLY ANTICIPATED TO BE HUMAN CARCINOGEN. ANIMAL: LUNGS, NASAL
CAVITIES.
Effects of Overexposure:HLTH HAZ: SKIN CANCER HAS BEEN REPORTED. ELEC
SHOCK CAN KILL. IF WELDING MUST BE PERFORMED IN DAMP LOCATION OR
W/WET CLTHG, ON METAL STRUCTURES/WHEN IN CRAMPED POSITIONS SUCH AS
SITTING, KNEELING/LYIN G, IF THERE IS HIGH RISK OF
UNAVOIDABLE/ACCIDENTAL CONT W/WORKPLACE, USE THE FOLLOWING EQUIP:
SEMIAUTOMATIC DC WELDER, DC MANUAL (STICK) WELDER, OR AC WELDER
W/REDUCED VOLTAGE CONTROL.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:MAY AGGRAVATE PREEXISTING
RESPIRATORY PROBLEMS (E.G., ASTHMA, EMPHYSEMA).
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:CALL FOR MEDICAL AID. EMPLOY FIRST AID TECHNIQUES RECOMMENDED
BY THE AMERICAN RED CROSS. INHALATION: IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT,
GIVE OXYGEN. IF NOT BREATHING, EMPLOY CPR (CARDIOPULMONARY
RESUSCITATION ) TECHNIQUES. IN CASE OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, TURN OFF
POWER AND FOLLOW RECOMMENDED TREATMENT. IN ALL CASES CALL MD. EYES:
FLUSH WITH POTABLE WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. SEE MD . SKIN:
FLUSH WI TH COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF WATER. SEE MD . INGESTION: CALL MD
IMMEDIATELY .
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR NIOSH APPROVED SCBA AND FULL PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT .
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:NON FLAMMABLE. WELDING ARC AND SPARKS CAN
IGNITE COMBUSTIBLES AND FLAMMABLE PRODUCTS.
