Hazard statements
Welding electrodes and wires are non-hazardous solids at ambient temperature. Arc rays can injure eyes and burn skin. Electric shock can kill. Before use, read and understand the manufacturer's instructions, MSDS's and your employer's safety practices. Keep your head out of the fumes. Use enough ventilation, exhaust at the arc, or both, to keep fumes and gases from your breathing zone and the general area. Wear correct eye, ear and body protection. Do not touch live electrical parts. See American National Standard Z49.1, and OSHA Safety and Health Standards. Carcinogenicity Crystalline silica: The National Toxicology Program indicates there is sufficient evidence for the carcinogenicity or respirable crystalline silica in experimental animals. Increases in incidence of lung cancers have been found in inhalation studies in rats. An IARC working group reported there is limited evidence for the carcinogenicity of crystalline silica in humans. · Information concerning particular hazards for human and environment: Not applicable.
