*  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  *
Respiratory Protection:USE WELD FUME RESPIRATOR OR AIR SUPPLIED
    RESPIRATOR WHEN ARC CUTTING, OR WELDING IN A CONFINED SPACE OR
    WHERE LOCAL EXHAUST OR GENERAL VENTILATION DOES NOT KEEP EXPOSURE
    BELOW RECOMMENDED LIMITS. USE  ONLY NIOSH APPROVED RESPIRATORS.
Ventilation:USE ENOUGH VENTILATION WHEN WELDING TO KEEP THE DUST, FUMES
    & GASES FROM THE WORKERS BREATHING ZONE
Other Protective Equipment:FLAME RETARDANT CLOTHING WHEN CUTTING,
    GRINDING OR WELDING. DO NOT EXPOSE SKIN TO RADIATION WHEN HOT
    CUTTING OR WELDING.
Work Hygienic Practices:WASH THOROUGHLY BEFORE EATING OR SMOKING.
    LAUNDER CONTAMINATIED CLOTHING BEFORE REUSE.
Supplemental Safety and Health
WELDING AND HOT CUTTING FUMES & GASES CANNOT BE CLASSIFIED SIMPLY.
    THEIR COMPOSITION AND QUANTITY ARE DEPENDENT ON THE METAL BEING
    WELDED, THE PROCEDURES, PROCESSES AND THE TYPE OF WIRE OR

Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO    IARC:NOOSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:SHORT TERM EXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES,
    GASES OR DUST MAY RESULT IN DISCOMFORT SUCH AS DIZZINESS, NAUSEA,
    FEVER, DRYNESS AND/OR IRRITATION OF NOSE, THROAT AND EYES. SKIN
    SENSITIVITY MAY ALSO BE NOTED. A CUTE EXPOSURE FROM SOME TOXIC
    GASES MAYCAUSE PULMONARY EDEMA, ASPHYXIATION AND EXCESSIVE EXPOSURE
    CAN BE FATAL.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:DOES NOT CONTAIN CARCINOGENIC METALLIC
    ELEMENTS.
Effects of Overexposure:EXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES MAY RESULT IN
    DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, FEVER, DRYNESS AND/OR IRRITATION OF NOSE, THROAT
    AND EYES. SKIN SENSITIVITY MAY ALSO BE NOTED. WATERY EYES,
    HEADACHE, BREATHING DIFFICULTY, F REQUENT COUGHING AND/OR CHEST
    PAINS MAYOCCUR FROM ACUTE EXPOSURE. TOXIC GASES CAN BE FATAL.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:SOME WORKERS MAY BE AFFECTED BY A
    PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS OF BREATHING PROBLEMS OR OTHER OCCUPATIONAL
    ILLNESS BECAUSE OF THE WIDE VARIATION IN INDIVIDUAL
    SUSCEPTIBILITIES.
*  First Aid Measures  *
First Aid:IN CASE OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, TURN OFF POWER PRIOR TO REMOVAL
    FROM EXPOSURE AREA AND ADMINISTRATION OF FIRST AID. REMOVE FROM
    EXPOSURE AREA AND CALL FOR MEDICAL AID; IF INHALED FUMES OF GASES
    AND BREAT HING IS DIFFICULT OR NOT BREATHING, BEGIN ARTIFICIAL
    RESPIRATION. IF NO DETECTABLE PULSE, BEGIN EXTERNAL HEART MASSAGE.
    EMPLOY FIRST AID TECHNIQUES RECOMMENDED BY THE AMERICAN RED CROSS.
*  Fire Fighting Measures  *
Flash Point:NONE
Extinguishing Media:USE SUITABLE MEDIA APPROPRIATE FOR SURROUNDING
    FIRES.
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR FIRE FIGHTING PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND A
    FULL FACED SELF CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS. COOL FIRE EXPOSED
    CONTAINERS WITH WATER SPRAY.
*  Accidental Release Measures  *
Spill Release Procedures:CLEAN UP ANY GRINDING DUST OR WASTE RESIDUES
    AND PLACE IN SUITABLE DOT APPROVED CONTAINERS AND DISPOSE OF IN
    FULL COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL REGULATIONS. AVOID
    INHALATION AND SKIN EXPOSU RE.
*Handling and Storage  *
    CLOTHING WHEN CUTTING, GRINDING OR WELDING. DO NOT EXPOSE SKIN TO
    RADIATION WHEN HOT CUTTING OR WELDING.
Other Precautions:PROVIDE PROTECTIVE SCREENS TO SHIELD OTHERS. WHEN
    ELECTRODES AND FLUXES ARE CONSUMED, THE FUME AND GAS DECOMPOSITION
    PRODUCTS GENERATED ARE DIFFERENT IN FORM FROM THE INGREDIENTS
    LISTED. NEW COMPOUNDS  NOT IN THE ELECTRODES MAY FORM.
