Supplemental label elements

As an article the product does not need to be labelled in accordance with EC-regulations or respective national laws. Although this product does not require a hazard warning label, we recommend that the safety precautions should be observed. Metals in massive form, alloys, mixtures containing polymers and mixtures containing elastomers do not require a label according to this Annex (Annex I GHS), if they do not present a hazard to human health by inhalation, ingestion or contact with skin or to the aquatic environment in the form in which they are placed on the market, although classified as hazardous in accordance with the criteria of this Annex. Instead, the supplier shall provide the information to downstream users or distributors by means of the SDS.

2.3 Other hazards

Welding and brazing processes can cause spatter, melting metal and UV/IR heat can cause burns or start fires. IARC and NIOSH are of the following opinion: During welding- and brazing processes formed metallic fumes are suspected of being cancer causing agents.

vPvB Substances

The mixture does not contain substance(s) included in the list established in accordance with Article 59(1) of REACH for having endocrine disrupting properties, or is not identified as having endocrine disrupting properties in accordance with the criteria set out in Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/2100 or Commission Regulation (EU) 2018/605
