SECTION 7 HEALTH HAZARD DATA
TWA 5mg/M3
OSHA PEL and ACGIH TVL - Oil Mist, Mineral
STEL 10 mg/M鲁 - Ceiling
Exposure Limits None established
Effects of Exposure See Below
Inhalation Not expected to be toxic by inhalation. However, breathing mineral oil mist at levels
above the TLV may cause respiratory irritation and possible discomfort. Elevated mists
concentrations above applicable workplace exposure levels may cause lung damage.
Incidental mists/vapors are the Major Route of Entry.
Ingestion Generally of a low order of toxicity. Not expected to be a problem when ingested.
Upon ingestion of large quantities, slight gastrointestinal discomfort, diarrhea and
headache may occur. Small doses may produce irritation and/or diarrhea. If aspirated
into the lungs, liquid can cause severe lung damage or death. If uncomfortable seek
medical assistance.
Skin Contact Material expected to cause no more than minor skin irritation following prolonged
and/or repeated contact. Wash contact areas with soap and water.
Eye Contact Flush thoroughly with water. If irritation occurs, call a physician.
Injection Injection under the skin, in muscle or into the blood stream can cause irritation,
inflammation, swelling or serious, permanent tissue damage. Seek medical attention
immediately.
Chronic Effects Prolonged and/or frequent contact may cause drying, cracking (dermatitis) or
folliculitis and may cause irritation.
SECTION 8 EMERGENCY and FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Inhalation If respiratory discomfort or irritation occurs due to inhalation of oil mist, move person to
fresh air. Vaporization is not expected at ambient temperatures. Contact a physician immediately if
illness or adverse symptoms develop.
Eye Contact Immediately flush eyes with a large amount of cool, clean, low-pressure water
while occasionally lifting and lowering eyelids. If irritation or adverse symptoms continues, seek
medical attention.
Skin Contact Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected skin area thoroughly with
soap and water. Launder soiled clothing. If skin irritation develops or persists, seek medical attention.

Ingestion If material is swallowed and adverse symptoms develop, seek medical attention
immediately. Induce vomiting only upon the advice of a physician. Never give anything by mouth to a
person who is not fully conscious. If spontaneous vomiting is about to occur, place victim鈥檚 head
below knees. Upon ingestion, there is a low to moderate risk of aspiration. Careful gastric
lavage may be considered to evacuate large quantities of material.
SECTION 8 EMERGENCY and FIRST AID PROCEDURES (CONT.)
Injection Injuries - Subcutaneous injection is a medical emergency. Seek medical attention
immediately. Inadequate treatment can result in ischemia and gangrene. Early symptoms may be
minimal.
SECTION 9 CONTROL and PROTECTIVE MEASURES
Storage and handling Store in an adequate ventilated area to control exposure. Special ventilation
is necessary only if unusual operating conditions create mist concentrations in excess of the TLV.
Respiratory Protection Not applicable for intended use. However, if unusual operating conditions
create mist concentrations in excess of the TLV, an approved NIOSH/MSHA respirator is
recommended.
Eye Protection Chemical face shield or protective goggles can reduce the possibility of accidental
eye contact.
Skin Protection Impervious protection gloves can minimize skin exposures where prolonged or
repeated exposures can occur.
This is a general recommendation based upon general information as to normal uses and
conditions. However when special or unusual uses or conditions exist, it is suggested that an
expert assistance of an industrial hygienist be sought for special equipment.
SECTION 10 SPILL and LEAK PROCEDURES
Take proper precautions to ensure your own health and safety before attempting
spill control or clean up.
Precautions if material is spilled or released
Wear protective equipment and/or garments described in Section 9 if exposure conditions warrant. Shut
off source, if possible and contain spill. Clean up spills as soon as possible. Absorb large spills with
commercially available absorbent materials spills with commercially available absorbent materials, such
as absorbent clay or other dry inert materials. Keep out of water sources and sewers. Comply with all
Federal, State, and Local regulations in reporting spill and cleanup. Provide adequate ventilation.
Waste Disposal Method
Place contaminated material in disposable containers. Material must be disposed of in accordance with
Federal, State, and local regulations. Contact the RCRA Superfund Hotline directly @ (800) 424-9346,
a regional US EPA office, or a permitted waste management facility to provide guidance concerning case
specific disposal issues.

Ecological Information
Ecotoxicity 鈥? No data available.
Environmental Fate 鈥? Ecological effects testing has not been conducted on this product. However, plants
and animals may experience harmful or fatal effects when coated with petroleum-based products.
Petroleum-based (mineral) lube oils will normally float on water. In stagnant or slow-flowing waterways,
an oil layer can cover a large surface area. As a result, this oil layer might limit or eliminate natural
atmospheric oxygen transport into the water. With time, if not removed, oxygen depletion in the waterway
might be enough to cause a fish kill or create an anaerobic environment.
