Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure
Pre-existing respiratory conditions may be aggravated by exposure to this product.
Principle Routes of Exposure
Skin. Inhalation. Ingestion. General Welding Statement Arc Rays can injure eyes and burn skin. Electric shock can kill. Fumes and gases can be dangerous to your health. Train the welder not to touch live electrical parts and to insulate himself from work and ground . Welding
Potential health effects
Eyes Ultraviolet radiation from welding can cause flash burns . Skin Possible burns to tissue. _______________________________________________ Page 1 / 4 Short term overexposure to welding fumes may result in dizziness, nausea, or dryness or irritation of nose, throat, or eyes. Long term exposure may lead to iron deposits in the lungs and is believed by some investigators to affect pulmonary function. Chronic exposure to high levels of manganese dust and fumes can cause nervous system disorders, pneumonitis (inflammation of lung tissue), and may cause fibrosis (scarring of lung tissue) and reproductive disorders in males . Exposure to the flouride ion may cause hypocalcemia-calcium deficiency in the blood that can result in muscle cramps and inflammation and necrosis of mucous membranes. Chronic fluoride absorption can result in osseous fluorosis, increased radiographic density of the bones and mottling of teeth. Long term exposure to welding fumes may result in the following effects. Convulsions. Possible unconsciousness. Bronchitis. Central nervous system effects. Death. Ingestion No adverse affects expected
