Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:EXPOS BY INHAL OF FUMES FROM BURNING
    OR WELDING, DUSTS FROM GRINDING OR CUTTING. ACUTE:EXCESSIVE INHAL
    OF FUMES FROM MANY METALS CAN PRODUCE AN ACUTE RXN KNOWN AS (METAL
    FUME FEVER). VERY SIMILAR & EA SILY CONFUSED W/FLU SYMPS.

Effects of Overexposure:HLTH HAZ: OTHER HAZ: THE MOST OBVIOUS & IMMED
    HAZ COMES FROM THE INTENSE BURNING ACTION OF LISTED PRODS UNDER
    NORMAL USE & CNDTNS. AIRBORNE MOLTEN PARTICLES PROPELLED BY O*2

*  First Aid Measures  *
First Aid:INHAL: REMOVE VICTIM FROM ADVERSE ENVIRONMENT. ADMIN OXYGEN
    IF BRTHG, ARTF RESP IF NOT BRTHG. TREAT SKIN AREA EXPOSED TO BURNS.
    ALWAYS SEND FOR MED AID IMMED FOR ANY INDUST ACCIDENT. SKIN: FLUSH

    GET MD IMMEDIATELY .
*  Fire Fighting Measures  *
Extinguishing Media:EXTINGUISHING MEDIA SUITABLE FOR SURROUNDING FIRE .
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED SCBA AND FULL
    PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT .
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:METAL PRODUCTS ARE NOT FIRE HAZ. DUST GEN
    BY CUTTING/GRINDING MAY PRESENT FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD.
*  Accidental Release Measures  *

*Handling and Storage  *
Handling and Storage Precautions:METAL ITSELF DOES NOT PRESENT HLTH HAZ
    UNLESS IT IS WELDED, BURNED, GROUND/CUT. DURING THESE PROC, IT IS
    POSS THAT EXCESS FUME/DUST MAY BE GENERATED.
Other Precautions:IT IS ADVISED THAT YOUR PARTICULAR OPERATION BE
    EVALUATED BY A COMPETENT HEALTH PROFESSIONAL TO DETERMINE WHETHER A
    HAZARD EXISTS.
