MSDS 
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are a sub-requirement of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Hazard 
Communication Standard, 29 CFR Subpart 1910.1200. This Hazard Communication Standard does not apply to various 
subcategories including anything defined by OSHA as an "article". OSHA has defined "article" as a manufactured item other than a 
fluid or particle; (i) which is formed to a specific shape or design during manufacture; (ii) which has end use function(s) dependent in 
whole or in part upon its shape or design during end use; and (iii) which under normal conditions of use does not release more than 
very small quantities, e.g. minute or trace amounts of a hazardous chemical, and does not pose a physical hazard or health risk to 
employees. 
Because all of our batteries are defined as "articles", they are exempt from the requirements of the Hazard Communication Standard, 
hence a MSDS is not required.
