===================== Hazards Identification =====================
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:YES IARC:YES OSHA:YES
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:SHORT TERM (ACUTE) OVEREXPOSURE TO
WELDING FUMES MAY RESULT IN DISCOMFORT SUCH AS DIZZINESS, NAUSEA,
AND DRYNESS OR IRRITATION OF THE NOSE, THROAT, OR EYES. LONG TERM
(CHRONIC) OVEREXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES MAY LEAD TO SIDEROSIS
(IRON DEPOSITS IN THE LUNG) AND IS BELIEVED BY SOME INVESTIGATORS
TO AFFECT PULMONARY FUNCTION. ARC RAYS CAN INJURE EYES AND BURN
SKIN. ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:WHEN PRESENT NTP: CR, NI. IARC: CR, NI.
OSHA: CR.
Effects of Overexposure:ACUTE: OVEREXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES MAY RESULT
IN DISCOMFORT SUCH AS DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, AND DRYNESS OR IRRITATION
OF THE NOSE, THROAT, OR EYES. CHRONIC: OVEREXPOSURE TO WELDING
FUMES MAY LEAD TO SIDE ROSIS (IRON DEPOSITS IN THE LUNG) AND IS
BELIEVED BY SOME INVESTIGATORS TO AFFECT PULMONARY FUNCTION. ARC
RAYS CAN INJURE EYES AND BURN SKIN. ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:AGGRAVATION OF PREEXISTING
RESPIRATORY OR ALLERGIC CONDITIONS MAY OCCUR IN SOME WORKERS.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:CALL FOR MEDICAL AID. EMPLOY FIRST AID TECHNIQUES RECOMMENDED
BY THE AMERICAN RED CROSS.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Fire Fighting Procedures:REFER TO AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Z-49.1 FOR
FIRE PREVENTING DURING THE USE OF WELDING PROCEDURES.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:THESE PRODUCTS AS SHIPPED ARE
NONHAZARDOUS, NONFLAMMABLE, NONEXPLOSIVE, AND NONREACTIVE. WELDING
ARC AND SPARKS CAN IGNITE COMBUSTIBLES AND FLAMMABLES.
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:NOT APPLICABLE.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:READ AND UNDERSTAND THE MANUFACTURES'S
INSTRUCTIONS AND THE PRECAUTIONARY LABEL ON THIS PRODUCT. SEE
AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Z-49.1, SAFETY IN WELDING AND CUTTING,
PUBLISHED BY THE AMERICAN WELDING SOCIETY, P.O. BOX 35410, MIAMI,
FL 33135 AND OSHA PUBLICATION 2206 (29 C.F.R. 1910), U.S.
Other Precautions:REACTIVITY-WELDING GASES CANNOT BE CLASSIFIED SIMPLY.
THEIR COMPOSITION & QUANTITIES ARE DEPENDENT UPON THE METAL BEING
WELDED, THE PROCESS, THE PROCEDURES, & ELECTRODES USED. THE PRIMARY
ROUTE OF ENT RY OF WELING FUMES & GASES IS BY INHALATION. WHEN THE
ELECTRODE IS CONSUMED, THE FUME & GAS DECOMPOS ITION PRODUCTS VARY.
============= Exposure Controls/Personal Protection =============
Respiratory Protection:USE RESPIRABLE FUME RESPIRATOR OR AIR SUPPLIES
RESPIRATOR WHEN WELDING IN CONFINED SPACE OR WHERE LOCAL EXHAUST OR
VENTILATION DOES NOT KEEP EXPOSURE BELOW TLV.
Ventilation:USE ENOUGH VENTILATION, LOCAL EXHAUST AT THE ARC, OR BOTH,
TO KEEP THE FUMES AND GASES BELOW THE TLV'S IN THE WORKERS
BREATHING ZONE AND THE GENERAL AREA.
Protective Gloves:WEAR WELDER GLOVES INCLUDING ARM PROTECTORS FOR ANDS
AND ARM PROTECTION.
Eye Protection:WEAR HELMET OR USE FACE SHIELD WITH FILTER LENS.
Other Protective Equipment:WEAR HEAD, HAND, AND BODY PROTECTION WHICH
HELP TO PREVENT INJURY FROM RADIATION, SPARKS, AND ELECTRICAL
SHOCK, INCLUDING APRONS, HATS, SHOULDER PROTECTION, AS WELL AS DARK
SUBSTANTIAL CLOTHING.
Work Hygienic Practices:TRAIN WELDER TO KEEP HIS HEAD OUT OF THE FUMES
AND NOT TO TOUCH LIVE ELECTRICAL PARTS AND TO INSULATE HIMSELF FROM
WORK AND GROUND. SEE ANSI Z-49.1
Supplemental Safety and Health
EYE PROTECTION: WEAR HELMET OR USE FACE SHIELD WITH FILTER LENS. AS A
RULE OF THUMB, START WITH A SHADE WHICH IS TOO DARK TO SEE THE WELD
ZONE. THEN GO T0 THE NEXT LIGHTER SHADE WHICH GIVES SUFFICIENT
VIEW OF THE WELD ZONE. PROVIDE PROTECTIVE SCREENS AND FLASH
GOGGLES, IF NECESSARY, TO SHIELD OTHERS.
================== Physical/Chemical Properties ==================
HCC:N1
================= Stability and Reactivity Data =================
Stability Condition to Avoid:THIS PRODUCT AS SHIPPED IS NONHAZARDOUS,
NONFLAMMABLE, NONEXPLOSIVE, AND NONREACTIVE.
Hazardous Decomposition Products:REASONABLY EXPECTED FUME OR GAS
GENERATED WHEN WELDING WITH THIS PRODUCT INCLUDE METAL FUMES,
ALUMINUM & MAGNESIUM OXIDES, CARBON OXIDES, OZONE, NITROGEN OXIDES,
INFRA-RED AND ULTRA-VIOLET RADIATION.
=================== Toxicological Information ===================
Toxicological Information:ONE RECOMMENDED WAY TO DETERMINE COMPOSITION
AND QUANTITY OF FUMES AND GASES TO WHICH WORKER`S ARE EXPOSED IS TO
TAKE AN AIR SAMPLE INSIDE THE WELDER`S HELMET, IF WORN, OR IN THE
WORKER`S BREATHING ZO NE. SEE ANSI/AWS F1.1, AVAILABLE FROM THE
AMERICAN WELDING SOCIETY, P.O. BOX 351040, MIAMI, FL 33135. THE
ACGIH RECOMMENDED GENERAL LIMIT FOR WELDING FUME NOC (NOT
OTHERSWISE CLASSIFIED) IS 5 MG/M3. THE ACGIH 1984-85 PREFACE
STATES: "THE TLV-TWA SHOULD BE USED AS GUIDES IN THE CONTROL OF
HEALTH HAZARDS AND SHOULD NOT BE USED AS FIRM LINES BETWEEN SAFE
AND DANGEROUS CONCENTRATIONS". SEE INGREDIEN TS FOR SPECIFIC
AMOUNTS.
==================== Disposal Considerations ====================
Waste Disposal Methods:PREVENT WASTE FROM CONTAMINATING SURROUNDING
ENVIRONMENT. DISCARD ANY PRODUCT, RESIDUE, DISPOSABLE CONTAINER, OR
LINER IN AN ENVIRONMENTALLY ACCEPTABLE MANNER, IN FULL COMPLIANCE
WITH FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL REGULATIONS.
===================== Regulatory Information =====================
