3 � Hazards Identification

CLEAR, COLORLESS AEROSOL SPRAY. PLEASANT ODOR.



Emergency Overview:

WARNING! CONTENTS UNDER PRESSURE. KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT, FLAMES AND

DIRECT SUNLIGHT. DO NOT PUNCTURE, CRUSH OR INCINERATE (BURN) CAN, EVEN

EMPTY. MAY CAUSE EYE IRRITATION.

Avoid breathing concentrated vapors. Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid getting on skin, in

eyes, and on clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling.



Symptoms of Overexposure:

Inhalation: No adverse effects expected in an otherwise healthy individual exposed to this

product during normal use. Excessive inhalation can cause headache, drowsiness, nausea and

lack of coordination. Breathing large amounts of spray may cause irritation of respiratory tract.

Skin Contact: May cause mild skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause

allergic reaction in susceptible individuals.

Eye Contact: Liquid sprayed into eyes may causes irritation and pain.

Ingestion: Swallowing is an unlikely route of exposure for an aerosol product . Swallowing large

amounts may produce mild gastrointestinal upset involving nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.

Chronic Effects: None known.

Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: Pre-existing respiratory and skin disorders.



Suspected Cancer Agent:

Yes   No X



4 � First Aid Measures

Ingestion (Swallowed): Swallowing is an unlikely route of exposure for an aerosol product. Do

not induce vomiting. Call physician, poison control center or the WD-40 Safety Hotline at 1-888-

324-7596. Give one eight-ounce glass of water to drink if the patient if conscious and responsive.

Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water, lifting upper and lower eyelids

occasionally. Get medical attention if irritation persists









                                            Page 1 of 4

Skin Contact: Flush skin with water. Get medical attention if irritation persists or other symptoms

develop.

Inhalation (Breathing): Remove to fresh air. Get medical attention if irritation or other symptoms

persist.



5 � Fire Fighting Measures

Flash Point: Not flammable in flame projection test, no flashback. The liquid is not flammable or

combustible.

Flammable Limits: Propellant LEL 1.8% UEL 9.5%

Aerosol Protection Level (NFPA 30B): Level 1

Extinguishing Media: Carbon dioxide, dry chemical, water fog.

Special Fire Fighting Instructions: Keep fire-exposed containers cool with water spray. In the

event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and a NIOSH approved self-contained breathing

apparatus with full face piece and operated in positive pressure mode. Use shielding to protect

from bursting cans.

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Exposure of containers to extreme heat and flames can

cause them to rupture often with violent force and subsequent fire.



6 � Accidental Release Measures

Ventilate area of spill and remove all sources of ignition. Observe all hazards mentioned in

Section 3. Wear personal protective equipment specified in Section 8. Move leaking cans to a

well ventilated area and allow propellant to dissipate if it is safe to do so. Collect liquid with an

inert absorbent and place in a suitable container for disposal.



7 � Handling and Storage

Handling: Use with adequate ventilation. Do not smoke or use around open flames or sources of

extreme heat. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating vapors and inhaling can be

harmful or fatal. Avoid getting in eyes or on skin and clothing. Do not breathe vapors. Wash

thoroughly after handling, and wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Do not crush, puncture

or incinerate containers. Do not place can in hot water or near radiators, stoves or other sources

of heat.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry ventilated area. Protect from physical damage. Do not store in direct

sunlight, near open flames or above temperatures greater than 120 F.
