EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
WARNING! WELDING, SAWING, BRAZING, GRINDING, ABRASIVE BLASTING, MACHINING AND
OTHER PROCESSES MAY CAUSE DUSTS, POTENTIALLY COMBUSTIBLE DUST, AND/OR FUMES
TO BE RELEASED. MAY BE HARMFUL IF INHALED. MAY IRRITATE THE EYES, SKIN, AND
RESPIRATORY TRACT. MOLTEN MATERIAL MAY CAUSE THERMAL BURNS

Health
Effects
Note: Steel products, as sold by Hubbell-RACO, do not present an inhalation, ingestion or skin hazard.
However,
individual customer processes, (such as welding, sawing, brazing, grinding, abrasive blasting, and
machining) may result in the formation of fumes, dust (combustible or otherwise), and/or particulate
formation that may present a variety of health hazards. Molten steel also is hazardous.
Eye
Contact
Dusts or particulates may cause mechanical irritation including pain, tearing, and redness. Scratching of
the cornea can occur if eye is rubbed. Fumes may be irritating. Contact with the heated material may
cause thermal burns.
