Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:SHORT TERM EXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES,
GASES OR DUST MAY RESULT IN DISCOMFORT SUCH AS DIZZINESS, NAUSEA,
FEVER, DRYNESS AND/OR IRRITATION OF NOSE, THROAT AND EYES. SKIN
SENSITIVITY MAY ALSO BE NOTED. A CUTE EXPOSURE FROM SOME TOXIC
GASES MAYCAUSE PULMONARY EDEMA, ASPHYXIATION AND EXCESSIVE EXPOSURE
CAN BE FATAL.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NONE OF THE MATERIALS IS LISTED AS A
CARCINOGEN BY NTP, IARC, OR OSHA.
Effects of Overexposure:EXPOSURE TO WELDING FUMES MAY RESULT IN
DISCOMFORT SUCH AS DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, FEVER, DRYNESS AND/OR
IRRITATION OF NOSE, THROAT AND EYES. SKIN SENSITIVITY MAY ALSO BE
NOTED. WATERY EYES, HEADACHE, BREA THING DIFFICULTY, FREQUENT
