SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Hazard statements
May be harmful in contact with eyes or skin, if inhaled, or swallowed. Emergency Overview: Cemented tungsten carbide with cobalt binder is a dark gray metal with no odor. During normal operation and usage, cemented carbide products do not present inhalation or ingestion hazards. However, grinding cemented carbide products will produce dusts of potentially hazardous ingredients which can be ingested, inhaled, or come into contact with the skin and eyes. Hazard Summary: Overexposure to this material in the form of metallurgical powder (from operations such as grinding) is hazardous to health. May cause eye, skin, and mucous membrane irritation. May cause temporary or permanent respiratory disease. Certain pulmonary and skin conditions may be aggravated by exposure. [
