3. PHYSICAL DATA
Cast stainless steel shot is in a non-hazardous condition when received. Fine metallic dust is generated as the shot breaks down from
impact and wear during normal use. The fine steel dust of the equipment created can be a mild explosion hazard (See IV).
Boiling Point: 3123-3423掳K Melting Point: 1644-1756掳K
Specific Gravity (at 293掳 K): 7.7 g.ccm Vapor Pressure: Not applicable
% Volatile by Volume: Not applicable pH: Not applicable
Evaporation Rate: Not applicable Vapor Density: Not applicable
Solubility in Water: Not applicable Percent Solid by Weight: 100%
4. FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA
Flash Point: Not applicable
Flammability Limits: Not applicable
Autoignition Temperature: (solid iron exposed to oxygen)-1200掳K
Cast stainless steel shot will not burn or explode. A mild fire or explosion hazard situation may be created due to the fine dust that
may result from use, when the vacuum condition of the shot blaster is poor. Fire extinguishing method for dust created due to use-use
Class D extinguishing agents or dry sand to exclude air. Do not use water or other liquids or foam.

5. HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Threshold Limit Values: Permissible exposure limits -see Section II
Carcinogenicity: OSHA, not listed, IARC, chromium [VI] - carcinogenic to humans (Group 1), metallic chromium and chromium
[III] compounds-not classifiable as to their carcinogenicity to humans (Group 3); nickel compounds are carcinogenic to humans,
metallic nickel is possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B)
Stainless steel Chronital, made thereof respectively, is not reported to be carcinogenic..
Fumes can be generated by welding or flame cutting surface containing new or used stainless steel shot or the dust created by use of
the abrasive. Welding or flame cutting may convert a small portion of the chromium to dust created by use of the abrasive. Welding or
flame cutting may convert a small portion of the chromium to hexavalent chromium [VI]. IARC reports that welding fumes are possi-
bly carcinogenic to humans.
Over exposure to dust and fumes may cause mouth, eye and nose irritation. Prolonged over exposure to manganese dust or fume af-
fects the central nervous system. Chronic over exposure can cause manganese poisoning and attendant apathy, loss of appetite, uncon-
trolled laughter, insomnia followed by sleepiness, headache, difficulty in walking, frequent falling, tremors, salivation sweating and
mental detachment. Prolonged over exposure to iron oxide fume can cause siderosis or 鈥渋ron pigmentation鈥? of the lung. It can be seen
on a chest x-ray but causes little or no disability.
Target Organs: Lung for chromium and lung and nasal for nickel.
Primary Routes of Entry: Inhalation of dust formed during use or shot or dust particles in eyes.
Emergency and First Aid Procedure: If inhaled, move out of area into fresh air. Flush eyes with running water and have any
remaining particles removed from eyes by qualified medical person.
6. REACTIVITY DATA
Stability: Stable
Hazardous polymerization: Will not occur
Hazardous decomposition products: None. Shot will break down into progressively smaller particles and dust during normal use.
7. SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
Shot spilled or leaked onto floors can create hazardous walking conditions. No special precautions need to be followed when cleaning
up spills or leaks of shot. When cleaning up large quantities of dust a NIOSH approved respirator should be used. Spilled shot can be
reclaimed for reuse or disposed of as a non-hazardous solid waste. Collected dust from blast cleaning or shot peening operations al-
ways contains contaminants from the surfaces of the parts being processed and therefore the dust may be classed as hazardous waste
and, as such, must be disposed of according to appropriate local, state or federal regulations.
8. SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
Ventilation: General ventilation and local exhaust should be provided to keep the dust levels below the TLV鈥檚 shown in Section II
Respiratory protection: If the dust created by use exceeds the ACGIH TLV鈥檚 and OSHA PEL鈥檚 indicated in Section II, a NIOSh
approved respirator should be worn.
Eye Protection: Approved safety glasses with eye shields should be worn.
Other Protective Equipment: none required.
