Potential health effects
Eyes May cause the following effects:. Redness. Tearing. Irritation. Skin Irritation. Skin _______________________________________________ Page 1 / 5 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 . Chronic fluoride absorption can result in osseous fluorosis, increased radiographic density of the bones and mottling of teeth. Short term (acute) overexposure to welding fumes may result in the following effects. Irritating to respiratory system. Pulmonary edema. Possible asphyxiation. Headaches. Chest discomfort. Death.
