STABILITY:
CONDITIONS TO AVOID:

INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID): WELDING FUMES CANNOT BE CLASSIFIED SIMPLY.
THE COMPOSITION AND QUANTITY OF BOTH ARE DEPENDENT UPON THE METAL BEING WELDED,
THE PROCESS, PROCEDURES AND RODS USED. OTHER CONDITIONS WHICH ALSO INFLUENCE THE
COMPOSITION AND QUANTITY OF THE METAL BEING WELDED (SUCH AS PAINT, PLATING, OR
GALVANIZATION) NUMBER OF WELDS AND VOLUME OF WORK AREA, QUALITY AND AMOUNT OF
VENTILATION, POSITION OF WELDER'S HEAD WITH RESPECT TO THE FUME PLUME, AS WELL
AS THE PRESENCE OF CONTAMINANTS IN THE ATMOSPHERE (SUCH AS CHLORINATED
HYDROCARBON VAPORS FROM CLEANING AND DEGREASING ACTIVITIES).

HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION OR BY PRODUCTS: WHEN THE ELECTRODE S CONSUMED, THE FUME
AND GAS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS ARE DIFFERENT IN PERCENT AND FORM FROM THE
INGREDIENTS LISTED IN SECTION II. FUME AND GAS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS, NOT THE
INGREDIENTS IN THE ROD, ARE IMPORTANT. DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS INCLUDE THOSE
ORIGINATING FROM THE VOLATILIZATION, REACTION, OR OXIDATION OF THE MATERIALS
SHOWN IN THE SECTION II PLUS THOSE FROM THE BASE METAL, COATING, ETC. AS NOTED
ABOVE. THESE COMPONENTS ARE (CHARACTERIZATION OF ARC WELDING FUME: AMERICAN
WELDING SOCIETY).

REASONABLY EXPECTED FUME CONSTITUENTS WOULD INCLUDE FLUORIDES AND COMPLEX OXIDES
OF IRON, ALUMINUM, MANGANESE, SILICON, NICKEL, AND COPPER. GASEOUS REACTION
PRODUCTS MAY INCLUDE CARBON MONOXIDE AND CARBON DIOXIDE. OZONE AND NITROGEN
OXIDES MAY BE FORMED BY THE RADIATION FROM THE ARC.

ONE RECOMMENDED WAY TO DETERMINE THE COMPOSITION AND QUANTITY OF FUMES AND GASES
TO WHICH WORKERS ARE EXPOSED IS TO TAKE AN AIR SAMPLE INSIDE THE WELDER'S HELMET
IF WORN, OR IN THE WORKER'S BREATHING ZONE.

                     ***SECTION VI: HEALTH HAZARD DATA***

ROUTES OF ENTRY:

HEALTH HAZARDS (ACUTE AND CHRONIC):

CARCINOGENICITY: YES-NICKEL

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: FUMES AND GASES CAN BE DANGEROUS TO YOUR HEALTH.
SHORT-TERM (ACUTE) OVEREXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES MAY RESULT IN DISCOMFORT SUCH
AS: DIZZINESS, NAUSEA OR DRYNESS OR IRRITATION OF NOSE, THROAT, OR EYES.
LONG-TERM (CHRONIC) OVEREXPOSURE MAY LEAD TO SIDEROSIS (IRON DEPOSITS IN THE
LUNGS) AND IS BELIEVED BY SOME INVESTIGATORS TO AFFECT PULMONARY FUNCTION. ARC
RAYS CAN INJURE EYES AND BURN SKIN. ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL.

MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: NONE

EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES: CALL FOR MEDICAL AID. EMPLOY FIRST AID
TECHNIQUES RECOMMENDED BY THE AMERICAN RED CROSS.


           ***SECTION VII: PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE***

STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: NONE

WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: NONE

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING: NONE

OTHER PRECAUTIONS: NONE

                     ***SECTION VIII: CONTROL MEASURES***

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (SPECIFY TYPE): USE RESPIRABLE FUME RESPIRATOR OR AIR
SUPPLIES RESPIRATOR WHEN WELDING IN CONFINED SPACE OR WHERE LOCAL EXHAUST OR
VENTILATION DOES NOT KEEP EXPOSURE BELOW TLV.

VENTILATION: USE ENOUGH VENTILATION, LOCAL EXHAUST AT THE ARC, OR BOTH, TO KEEP
THE FUMES AND GASES BELOW THE TLV'S IN THE WORKER'S BREATHING ZONE AND THE
GENERAL AREA. TRAIN THE WELDER TO KEEP HIS HEAD OUT OF THE FUMES.

PROTECTIVE GLOVES: WELDERS GLOVES.

EYE PROTECTION: WEAR HELMET OR USE FACE SHIELD WITH FILTER LENS. AS A RULE OF
THUMB, START WITH A SHADE WHICH IS TOO DARK TO SEE THE WELD ZONE. THEN GO TO THE
NEXT LIGHTER SHADE WHICH GIVES SUFFICIENT VIEW OF THE WELD ZONE. PROVIDE SCREENS
AND FLASH GOGGLES, IF NECESSARY, TO SHIELD OTHERS.

OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OR EQUIPMENT: WEAR HEAD, HAND AND BODY PROTECTION
WHICH HELP TO PREVENT INJURY FROM RADIATION, SPARKS AND ELECTRICAL SHOCK. AT A
MINIMUM, THIS INCLUDES WELDER'S GLOVES AND A PROTECTIVE FACE SHIELD AND MAY
INCLUDE ARM PROTECTORS, APRONS, HATS, SHOULDER PROTECTION. AS WELL AS DARK
SUBSTANTIAL CLOTHING. TRAIN THE WELDER NOT TO TOUCH LIVE ELECTRICAL PARTS AND TO
INSULATE HIMSELF FROM THE WORK AND GROUND.

WORK/HYGIENIC PRACTICES: NONE
