| 2. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION | |
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW:
COATED METAL RODS IN VARYING COLORS. THESE PRODUCTS ARE NORMALLY NOT
CONSIDERED HAZARDOUS AS SHIPPED. GLOVES SHOULD BE WORN WHEN HANDLING
TO PREVENT CONTAMINATING HANDS WITH PRODUCT DUST.
THESE PRODUCTS CONTAIN NICKEL, WHICH IS CLASSIFIED AS TOXIC BY PROLONGED
INHALATION, A SKIN SENSITIZER AND A SUSPECT CARCINOGEN. IN THE FORM THAT
NICKEL IS PRESENT IN THESE PRODUCTS IT DOES NOT CONTRIBUTE TO A HAZARD
CLASSIFICATION OF THE PRODUCTS. THESE PRODUCTS CONTAIN QUARTZ, BUT
NORMALLY NOT IN AN INHALABLE FRACTION. QUARTZ CAN CAUSE SILICOSIS AND
MAY CAUSE CANCER.
AVOID EYE CONTACT OR INHALATION OF DUST FROM THESE PRODUCTS. SKIN CONTACT
IS NORMALLY NO HAZARD BUT SHOULD BE AVOIDED TO PREVENT POSSIBLE ALLERGIC
REACTIONS.
PERSONS WITH A PACEMAKER SHOULD NOT GO NEAR WELDING OR CUTTING OPERATIONS
UNTIL THEY HAVE CONSULTED THEIR DOCTOR AND OBTAINED INFORMATION FROM THE
MANUFACTURER OF THE DEVICE.
WHEN THESE PRODUCTS ARE USED IN A WELDING PROCESS, THE MOST IMPORTANT
HAZARDS ARE HEAT, RADIATION, ELECTRIC SHOCK AND WELDING FUMES.
HEAT: SPATTER AND MELTING METAL CAN CAUSE BURN INJURIES AND START FIRES.
RADIATION: ARC RAYS CAN SEVERELY DAMAGE EYES OR SKIN.
ELECTRICITY: ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL.
FUMES:
OVEREXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES MAY RESULT IN SYMPTOMS LIKE METAL FUME FEVER,
DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, DRYNESS OR IRRITATION OF THE NOSE, THROAT OR EYES.
CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES MAY AFFECT PULMONARY FUNCTION.
PROLONGED INHALATION OF NICKEL COMPOUNDS ABOVE SAFE EXPOSURE LIMITS CAN
CAUSE CANCER. OVEREXPOSURE TO MANGANESE AND MANGANESE COMPOUNDS ABOVE SAFE
EXPOSURE LIMITS CAN CAUSE IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE TO THE CENTRAL NERVOUS
SYSTEM, INCLUDING THE BRAIN, SYMPTOMS OF WHICH MAY INCLUDE SLURRED SPEECH,
LETHARGY, TREMOR, MUSCULAR WEAKNESS, PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTURBANCES AND SPASTIC
GAIT.

| 4. FIRST AID MEASURES | |
INHALATION:
IF BREATHING HAS STOPPED, PERFORM ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION AND OBTAIN MEDICAL
ASSISTANCE IMMEDIATELY! IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT, PROVIDE FRESH AIR AND
CALL PHYSICIAN.
EYE CONTACT:
FOR RADIATION BURNS DUE TO ARC FLASH, SEE PHYSICIAN. TO REMOVE DUSTS OR
FUMES FLUSH WITH WATER FOR AT LEAST FIFTEEN MINUTES. IF IRRITATION
PERSISTS, OBTAIN MEDICAL ASSISTANCE.
SKIN CONTACT:
FOR SKIN BURNS FROM ARC RADIATION, PROMPTLY FLUSH WITH COLD WATER. GET
MEDICAL ATTENTION FOR BURNS OR IRRITATIONS THAT PERSIST. TO REMOVE DUST
OR PARTICLES WASH WITH MILD SOAP AND WATER.
ELECTRIC SHOCK:
DISCONNECT AND TURN OFF THE POWER. USE A NONCONDUCTIVE MATERIAL TO PULL
VICTIM AWAY FROM CONTACT WITH LIVE PARTS OR WIRES. IF NOT BREATHING,
BEGIN ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION, PREFERABLY MOUTH-TO-MOUTH. IF NO DETECTABLE
PULSE, BEGIN CARDIO PULMONARY RESUSCITATION (CPR). IMMEDIATELY CALL A
PHYSICIAN.
GENERAL: MOVE TO FRESH AIR AND CALL FOR MEDICAL AID.
| 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES | |
NO SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS FOR WELDING CONSUMABLES. WELDING ARCS AND
SPARKS CAN IGNITE COMBUSTIBLE AND FLAMMABLE MATERIALS. USE THE
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA RECOMMENDED FOR THE BURNING MATERIALS AND FIRE
SITUATION. WEAR SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS AS FUMES OR VAPORS
MAY BE HANMFUL.
| 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES | |
SOLID OBJECTS MAY BE PICKED UP AND PLACED INTO A CONTAINER. LIQUIDS OR
PASTES SHOULD BE SCOOPED UP AND PLACED INTO A CONTAINER. WEAR PROPER
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT WHILE HANDLING THESE MATERIALS. DO NOT DISCARD AS
REFUSE.
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS: REFER TO SECTION 8.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS: REFER TO SECTION 13.
| 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE | |
HANDLING:
HANDLE WITH CARE TO AVOID STINGS AND CUTS. WEAR GLOVES WHEN HANDLING
WELDING CONSUMABLES. AVOID EXPOSURE TO DUST. DO NOT INGEST. SOME
INDIVIDUALS CAN DEVELOP AN ALLERGIC REACTION TO CERTAIN MATERIALS.
RETAIN ALL WARNING AND IDENTITY LABELS.
STORAGE:
KEEP SEPARATE FROM CHEMICAL SUBSTANCES LIKE ACIDS AND STRONG BASES,
WHICH COULD CAUSE CHEMICAL REACTIONS.
| 8. EXPOSURE CONTROUPERSONAL PROTECTION | |
AVOID EXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES, RADIATION, SPATTER, ELECTRIC SHOCK,
HEATED MATERIALS AND DUST.
ENGINEERING MEASURES:
ENSURE SUFFICIENT VENTILATION, LOCAL EXHAUST, OR BOTH, TO KEEP WELDING
FUMES AND GASES FROM BREATHING ZONE AND GENERAL AREA. KEEP WORKING PLACE
AND PROTECTIVE CLOTHING CLEAN AND DRY. TRAIN WELDERS TO AVOID CONTACT
WITH LIVE ELECTRICAL PARTS AND INSULATE CONDUCTIVE PARTS.
CHECK CONDITION OF PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AND EQUIPMENT ON A REGULAR BASIS.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT:
USE RESPIRATOR OR AIR SUPPLIED RESPIRATOR WHEN WELDING OR BRAZING IN A
CONFINED SPACE, OR WHERE LOCAL EXHAUST OR VENTILATION IS NOT SUFFICIENT
TO KEEP EXPOSURE VALUES WITHIN SAFE LIMITS. USE SPECIAL CARE WHEN WELDING
PAINTED OR COATED STEELS SINCE HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES FROM THE COATING MAY
BE EMITTED. WEAR HAND, HEAD, EYES, EAR AND BODY PROTECTION LIKE WELDERS
GLOVES, HELMET OR FACE SHIELD WITH FILTER LENS, SAFETY BOOTS, APRON, ARM
AND SHOULDER PROTECTION. KEEP PROTECTIVE CLOTHING CLEAN AND DRY.
USE INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE MONITORING EQUIPMENT TO ENSURE THAT EXPOSURE DOES
NOT EXCEED APPLICABLE NATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS. THE FOLLOWING LIMITS CAN
BE USED AS GUIDANCE. FOR INFORMATION ABOUT WELDING FUME ANALYSIS REFER
TO SECTION 10.

NOTE:
SOME OF THESE PRODUCTS MAY NOT CONTAIN ALL OF THE MATERIALS LISTED.
FOR DETAILS OF COMPOSITION, REFER TO THE COMPOSITION TABLES IN
SECTION 3.
| 9. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES | |
APPEARANCE: SOLID, NON-VOLATILE WITH VARYING COLOR.
MELTING POINT: > 1300 DEG. C/> 2300 DEG. F
| 10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY | |
GENERAL: THESE PRODUCTS ARE ONLY INTENDED FOR NORMAL WELDING PURPOSES.
STABILITY: THESE PRODUCTS ARE STABLE UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS.
REACTIVITY:
CONTACT WITH CHEMICAL SUBSTANCES LIKE ACIDS OR STRONG BASES COULD CAUSE
GENERATION OF GAS.
WHEN THESE PRODUCTS ARE USED IN A WELDING PROCESS, HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION
PRODUCTS WOULD INCLUDE THOSE FROM THE VOLATILIZATION, REACTION OR OXIDATION
OF THE MATERIALS LISTED IN SECTION 3 AND THOSE FROM THE BASE METAL AND
COATING.
THE AMOUNT OF FUMES GENERATED FROM MANUAL METAL ARC WELDING VARIES WITH
WELDING PARAMETERS AND DIMENSIONS BUT IS GENERALLY NO MORE THAN 5 TO
20 G/KG CONSUMABLE. FUMES FROM THESE PRODUCTS MAY CONTAIN COMPOUNDS OF THE
FOLLOWING CHEMICAL ELEMENTS: Fe, O, Mn, Ni, F, Na, Si, K, Ca, Ba, Sr, Al
AND Cu. THE REST IS NOT ANALYZED, ACCORDING TO AVAILABLE STANDARDS.
REFER TO APPLICABLE NATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS FOR FUME COMPOUNDS, INCLUDING
THOSE EXPOSURE LIMITS FOR FUME COMPOUNDS FOUND IN SECTION 8. MANGANESE AND
NICKEL HAVE LOW EXPOSURE LIMITS, IN SOME COUNTRIES, THAT MAY BE EASILY
EXCEEDED.
REASONABLY EXPECTED GASEOUS PRODUCTS WOULD INCLUDE CARBON OXIDES, NITROGEN
OXIDES AND OZONE. AIR CONTAMINANTS AROUND THE WELDING AREA CNN BE AFFECTED
BY THE WELDING PROCESS AND INFLUENCE THE COMPOSITION AND QUANTITY OF FUMES
AND GASES PRODUCED.
| 11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION | |
INHALATION OF WELDING FUMES AND GASES CAN BE DANGEROUS TO YOUR HEALTH.
CLASSIFICATION OF WELDING FUMES IS DIFFICULT BECAUSE OF VARYING BASE
MATERIALS, COATINGS, AIR CONTAMINATION AND PROCESSES. THE INTERNATIONAL
AGENCY FOR RESEARCH ON CANCER HAS CLASSIFIED WELDING FUMES AS POSSIBLY
CARCINOGENIC TO HUMANS (GROUP 2B).
ACUTE TOXICITY:
OVEREXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES MAY RESULT IN SYMPTOMS LIKE METAL FUME FEVER,
DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, DRYNESS OR IRRITATION OF THE NOSE, THROAT OR EYES.
CHRONIC TOXICITY:
OVEREXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES MAY AFFECT PULMONARY FUNCTION. PROLONGED
INHALATION OF NICKEL COMPOUNDS ABOVE SAFE EXPOSURE LIMITS CAN CAUSE CANCER.
OVEREXPOSURE TO MANGANESE AND MANGANESE COMPOUNDS ABOVE SAFE EXPOSURE
LIMITS CAN CAUSE IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE TO THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM,
INCLUDING THE BRAIN, SYMPTOMS OF WHICH MAY INCLUDE SLURRED SPEECH,
LETHARGY, TREMOR, MUSCULAR WEAKNESS, PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTURBANCES AND
SPASTIC GAIT INHALABLE QUARTZ IS A RESPIRATORY CARCINOGEN; HOWEVER,
THE PROCESS OF WELDING CONVERTS CRYSTALLINE QUARTZ TO THE AMORPHOUS FORM
WHICH IS NOT CONSIDERED TO BE A CARCINOGEN.
| 12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION | |
WELDING CONSUMABLES AND MATERIALS COULD DEGRADE/WEATHER INTO COMPONENTS
ORIGINATING FROM THE CONSUMABLES OR FROM THE MATERIALS USED IN THE WELDING
PROCESS. AVOID EXPOSURE TO CONDITIONS THAT COULD LEAD TO ACCUMULATION IN
SOILS OR GROUNDWATER.
| 13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS | |
DISCARD ANY PRODUCT, RESIDUE, DISPOSABLE CONTAINER OR LINER IN AN
ENVIRONMENTALLY ACCEPTABLE MANNER, IN FULL COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL AND
LOCAL REGULATIONS. USE RECYCLING PROCEDURES IF AVAILABLE.
USA RCRA:
UNUSED PRODUCTS OR PRODUCT RESIDUE CONTAINING BARIUM IS CONSIDERED
HAZARDOUS WASTE IF DISCARDED, RCRA ID CHARACTERISTIC TOXIC HAZARDOUS
WASTE 0005.
RESIDUES FROM WELDING CONSUMABLES AND PROCESSES COULD DEGRADE AND
ACCUMULATE IN SOILS AND GROUNDWATER. WELDING SLAG FROM THESE
PRODUCTS TYPICALLY CONTAIN MAINLY THE FOLLOWING COMPONENTS ORIGINATING
FROM THE COATING OF THE ELECTRODE: Fe, O, Mn, Ni, F, Na, Si, K, Ca,
Ba, Sr, Al AND Cu.
