Potential health effects

Inhalation Fumes and/or dust produced by this product may be hazardous in case of ingestion or inhalation. Rosin thermal decomposition product (as formaldehyde) is classified by NIOSH as a potential occupational carcinogen. Lead is a cumulative poison and continuous exposure to small amounts over time can raise the body's content to toxic levels. Fumes may be irritating and may cause an allergic respiratory reaction. Excessive inhalation of fumes from many metals can produce an acute reaction known as "metal fume fever". Symptoms consist of chills and fever (very similar to and easily confused with flu symptoms) which come on a few hours after large exposures. Skin contact Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause irritation, skin sensitization and argyria (a non- toxic, cosmetic blue-gray discoloration of the skin and mucous membranes that is irreversible). Harmful if absorbed through skin. Eye contact: Ingestion Contact with eyes will cause irritation. May cause gastrointestinal tract irritation if swallowed. Lead is a cumulative poison and continuous exposure to small amounts over time can raise the body's content to toxic levels. Symptoms of lead poisoning include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and headache. Existing conditions aggravated by Repeated or prolonged exposure to lead and its compounds may produce general health exposure deterioration by an accumulation in one or more human organs.
