3 HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
Under normal conditions of use, this product is not considered hazardous according to regulatory guidelines. (See
section 15)
It is of low oral and dermal toxicity and under normal conditions of use should present no significant health hazards.
Handling precautions should be strictly observed.
4 FIRST AID
INHALATION: Remove from further exposure. If respiratory irritation, dizziness, nausea, or unconsciousness occurs,
seek immediate medical assistance. If breathing has stopped, assist ventilation with mechanical device or use mouth-
to-mouth resuscitation.
SKIN CONTACT: Wash contact areas with soap and water. Remove and clean the grease soaked clothing and wash
affected area.
EYE CONTACT: Rinse immediately with plenty of water until irritation subsides. If irritation persists, obtain medical
advice.
INJECTION INJURY WARNING: if the product is injected into or under the skin or into any part of the body, regardless
of the appearance of the wound or its size, a physician as a surgical emergency should evaluate the individual
immediately.
Even though initial symptoms from high-pressure injection may be minimal or absent, early surgical treatment within
the first few hours may significantly reduce the ultimate extent of injury.
Material Safety Data Sheet
5 FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Carbon dioxide, foam, dry chemical and water fog. FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS:
Combustible material, low hazard. The product can form flammable mixtures or can burn only on heating above the
flash point. However, minor contamination by hydrocarbons of higher volatility may increase the hazard.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Water or foam may cause frothing.
Use water to keep fire exposed containers cool. Water spray may be used to flush spills away from exposure. Prevent
runoff from fire control or dilution from entering streams, sewers, or drinking water supply.
SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: For fires in enclosed areas, fire fighters must use self-contained breathing
apparatus.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: None.
COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Smoke, and carbon monoxide may be formed in the event of incomplete combustion.
Flash Point C(F): > 250(480) (Estimated for the oil, ASTM D-92 (COC)).
Flammable Limits (approx.% vol.in air) - LEL: NE, UEL: NE
NFPA HAZARD ID: Health: 0, Flammability: 1, Reactivity: 0
HANDLING: High-pressure injection under the skin may occur due to the
rupture of pressurized lines. Always seek medical attention. No special precautions are necessary beyond normal good
hygiene practices. See Section 8 for additional personal protection advice when handling this product.
STORAGE: Keep containers closed when not in use. Store away from strong oxidizing agents and combustible
materials. Do not store near heat, sparks, flame or strong oxidants.
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS: Prevent small spills and leakages to avoid slip hazard.
EMPTY CONTAINER WARNING: Empty containers retain residue (liquid
and/or vapor) and can be dangerous. DO NOT PRESSURIZE, CUT, WELD, BRAZE, SOLDER, DRILL, GRIND OR
EXPOSE SUCH CONTAINERS TO HEAT,FLAME, SPARKS, STATIC ELECTRICITY, OR OTHER OURCES OF
IGNITION;THEY MAY EXPLODE AND CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH. Do not attempt to refill or clean container since
residue is difficult to remove.
Empty drums should be completely drained, properly bunged and promptly returned to a drum reconditioner. All
containers should be disposed of in an environmentally safe manner and in accordance with governmental regulations.
