SECTION 2: Hazards identification

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: Brazing rods are not normally considered hazardous as shipped or when handled. Gloves should be worn when handling to prevent cuts. Avoid inhalation of dust from these products. Skin contact may cause possible allergic reactions. When these products are used in a welding or brazing process the most important hazards are: heat, radiation, electric shock when welding, and welding fumes. HEALTH DANGER: Toxic. Danger of serious damage to health by prolonged exposure through inhalation.

Principle Routes of Exposure

Primary route of entry is the respiratory system when used. Other possible routes are eyes, ingestion, and/or skin contact.

Potential health effects

EYES: Inert foreign body hazard only. SKIN: Prolonged contact may result in rashes/irritations due to drying of the skin and/or mechanical abrasion related to skin-to-clothing contact or skin-to-skin contact. May cause allergic skin reaction. INGESTION: No adverse health effects anticipated by this route during proper industrial handling. INHALATION: Exposure to dust may aggravate pre-existing respiratory conditions.
