Potential health effects

Steel products, under normal conditions, do not present an inhalation, ingestion, or skin hazard. However, operations such as welding, grinding, sawing, and burning, which may cause airborne particulates or fume formation, may present a health hazard. Eyes- Avoid contact with eyes. Contact with dusts or particulates produced by cutting, welding, or grinding may be abrasive and irritating to the eyes and cause stinging, watering, and redness. Skin- Wash thoroughly after handling. Contact with dusts or particulates produced by cutting, welding, or grinding may be abrasive and mildly irritating to the skin. Particulates may cause a red-brown pigmentation of the skin following repeated exposure. No harmful effects from skin absorption are expected. Inhalation- No LC50 toxicity data available for the product. Dusts or particulates produced by cutting, welding, or grinding are expected to have a low degree of toxicity by inhalation. Ingestion- No LD50 toxicity data available for the product. Dusts or particulates produced by cutting, welding, or grinding are not known to be toxic. Signs and Symptoms- Effects of overexposure may include irritation of the nose and throat and digestive tract. Cancer- No information available on the cancer hazard of this material. However, a component has been identified as a cancer hazard (see Section XIII), Target Organs- A component of this product is a potential hazard to the male reproductive system Developmental- No data available. Other Comments- Chronic exposure to manganese may result in a central nervous system disorder (manganism). Symptoms may include confusion, bizarre behavior, visual hallucinations, difficulty with speech and movement, tremor, loss of balance, decreased libido and impotence. Chronic exposure to high concentrations of iron have been associated with hemosiderosis, hemochromatosis and in severe cases, liver cirrhosis. Typical occupational exposures to iron compounds are not expected to cause these effects. Chronic inhalation can produce "mottling" of the lungs (siderosis). This is considered a benign pneumoconiosis and does not normally lead to fibrosis or cause significant physiologic impairment. Metal fume fever is a brief, self-limited illness characterized by fever, chills, aching muscles, sweating, nausea, vomiting, and coughing. Symptoms typically occur several hours after exposure to metal oxide fumes and subside with 24-48 hours.
