Routes of Entry: Inhalation:NOSkin:NO  Ingestion:NO
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO    IARC:NOOSHA:YES
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:SHORT TERM EXPOSURE TO WELDING FUME
    MAY RESULT IN DISCOMFORT, DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, DRYNESS OR IRRITATION
    OF THE THROAT.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NICKEL & CHROMIUM SHOULD BE CONSIDERED
    POSSIBLE CARCINOGENS.
Effects of Overexposure:LONG TERM EXPOSURE TO WELDING FUME, GASES OR
    DUST MAY CONTRIBUTE TO PULMONARY IRRITATION OR PNEUMOCONIOSIS. LONG
    TERM EXPOSURE TO IRON FUME MAY PRODUCE SIDEROSIS.
