*  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  *
Respiratory Protection:USE NIOSH APPROVED RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (HIGH
    EFFICIENCY DUST/FUME, SUPPLIED-AIR) WHERE EXPOSURE LIMITS MAY BE
    EXCEEDED
Ventilation:ADEQUATE GENERAL & LOCAL EXHAUST TO KEEP BELOW TLV
Supplemental Safety and Health
THE PRIMARY HEALTH HAZARD ASSOCIATED WITH HANDLING & PROCESSING
    BERYLLIUM CONTAINING ALUMINUM ALLOYS IS EXPOSURE TO BERYLLIUM &
    BERYLLIUM COMPOUNDS WHICH ARE HIGHLY TOXIC BY INHALATION OF FUME OR
    DUST . EXPOSURE CAN CAUSE ACUTE PNEUMONITIS,CHRONIC BERYLLIOSIS,
    AND SYSTEMIC BERYLLIUM DISEASE.

Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:INHALATION: MUCOUS MEMBRANE IRRITATION
    & PULMONARY EFFECTS. NITROGEN MONOXIDE CAN BE FATAL. BERYLLIUM IS
    HIGHLY TOXIC BY INHALATION & CAN RESULT IN PNEUMONITIS
    (INFLAMMATION OF LUNG TISSUES). SKIN/EYE S: IRRITATION OR FLASH
    BURNS.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:SEE INGREDIENTS
Effects of Overexposure:INHALATION: RESPIRATORY SYSTEM IRRITATION.
    COPPER FUME CAN RESULT IN UPPER RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION,
    NAUSEA, & METAL FUME FEVER. NITRIC OXIDE IS A SEVERE EYE, SKIN &
    MUCOUS MEMBRANE IRRITANT; MAY  CAUSE FORMATION OF METHEMOGLOBIN &
    SUBSEQUENT ACTION ON CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM. SEE SUPP.
*  First Aid Measures  *
First Aid:INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF BREATHING STOPS, PROVIDE
    OXYGEN. SKIN/EYES: OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION IN ALL CASES.
*  Fire Fighting Measures  *
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:DOES NOT PRESENT A FIRE OR EXPLOSION
    HAZARD UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS. SMALL CHIPS, FINE TURNINGS & DUST
    MAY IGNITE READILY.
*  Accidental Release Measures  *
Spill Release Procedures:COLLECT SCRAP FOR REMELTING.
*Handling and Storage  *
Handling and Storage Precautions:USE W/ADEQUATE VENTILATION. TAKE
    NECESSARY PRECAUTIONS TO PROTECT SKIN FROM DIRECT & REFLECTED LIGHT
    FROM ARC.
Other Precautions:WELDING ARCS FROM THE PROCESSES CREATE WELDING FUMES
    AS WELL AS AN INTENSE ULTRAVIOLET RADIATION WHICH PRODUCES OZONE.
