HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION EMERGENCY OVERVIEW May cause minor eye, skin, and respiratory initation, and possibly dermatitis New Zealand Hazards Identification: HSNO 8.38 (Mild skin iritant) and 6.44 (Eye irritant) Revision Date: 02/09/2011 Page 1 of 6Cooper Industries/Crouse-Hinds Division: MSDS for STL Thread Lubricant POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS EYE: Contact may cause minor irritation, ‘SKIN: Contact may cause minor iritation, Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause rash (dermatitis) INHALATION: Due to relatively low volatility, inhalation exposure is not anticipated under normal conditions and use, Inhalation of vapors or fumes produced at elevated temperatures, or mists, may cause ittation of the nose and throat, and possibly chemical pneumonitis, INGESTION: Relatively non-toxic. Ingestion may result in a laxative effect. Ingestion of substantial quantities may cause lithium toxicity CHRONIC: Prolonged or repeated contact may cause dermatitis or defatting of skin, or chemical pneumonitis in some individuals. CARCINOGENICITY: IARC: No NTP: No (OSHA: No This product contains a petroleum-based grease. ACGIH has proposed lowering the TLV for mineral oll mists to 0.2 mgm” inhalable fraction, highly refined Ad and adding a "suspect carcinogen’ designation MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Inhalation may aggravate pre-existing respiratory conditions. Skin contact may aggravate pre-existing skin conditions in sensitive individuals SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS: May cause skin and eye irritation. Symptoms of pneumonitis include difficulty breathing, coughing, and a low-grade fever. ‘TARGET ORGANS: None known. = ‘4. FIRST AID MEASURES EYE CONTACT: Flush eyes with lukewarm water for 16 minutes. Ifirritation persists, get medical attention. SKIN: Remove contaminated clothing and wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. INHALATION: Not expected under normal conditions. If mists or degradation products are inhaled, remove to fresh alr. ‘Administer oxygen or artificial respiration as indicated and get immediate medical attention. INGESTION: Not expected under normal conditions. if substantial amounts are ingested, consult a physician. Do not induce ‘vomiting ~ If vomiting occurs, hold head beneath hips or place on left side with head down to reduce aspiration into lungs. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: High veloc injection under the skin may resutn serious injury. I left untreated the affected area is | subject o infection, disfigurement, lack of blood circulation and may require amputation. When dispensed by high pressure | equipment this material can easly penetrate the skin and leave a bloodless puncture wound. Material injected into fnger an be deposited into the palm of the hand. Within 24-48 hours the patient may experience sweling, discoloration, and throbbing pain in the affected area, Immediate treatment by a surgical specialists recommended. FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES FLASH POINT: 226°C (440°F) COC FLAMMABLE LIMITS: TEL” No Data UEC: Ne data NEPA HAZARD CLASSIFICATION: HEALTH: 1 FLAMMABILITY. 1 REACTIVITY: 0 EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam, water fog. Foam and water fog are effective but may cause frothing. Do not use direct water stream as oll may spread and frothing can be violent. Continue to cool fire-exposed containers after flames are extinguished Revision Date, 02/09/2011 Page 2 of 6Cooper Industries/Crouse-Hinds Division: MSDS for STL Thread Lubricant FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS. Water may be used to Keep fie-exposed containers cool and knock down vapors. Mists and sprays may be flammable at temperatures below normal flash point. Combustion may produce oxides of carbon, lithium compounds, and other oxidation products. No unusual fire hazards. FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS: Firefighters should wear a NIOSH-approved, self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) ‘operated in the positive pressure mode and full tumout gear or bunker gear. 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES | Isolate area of spill and scoop up spilled material. Avoid walking through spilled material. Prevent spils from reaching waterways, Wear gloves and other protective equipment as necessary (See Section 8). Scoop or wipe up spilled material and place in clean container for later disposal. Thoroughly remove residue to prevent slipping. Wear appropriate protective equipment (ie. rubber gloves, apron, etc.) as necessary to avoid contact. (See Section 8.) 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE ‘Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from ignition sources and incompatible materials. Keep away from heat, ‘sparks, flames, and strong oxidizers when handling, Avoid skin and eye contact. Promptly change contaminated clothing and discard items that cannot be adequately cleaned (ie, leather shoes). Wash thoroughly after handling and before meals and breaks. Empty containers may contain combustible product residue. Use appropriate precautions. Storage Conditions — store in.cool, dry, well ventilated area. Keep containers closed. Sata @. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: None required under normal working conditions. If ventilation is insufficient to control air contaminants, select NIOSH approved respiratory protection according to the magnitude of exposure, Select and maintain respirators in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 (In Europe - Standard EN 149). (See MSDS Section 2 for exposure limits) SKIN PROTECTION: Wear rubber gloves, apron, and other clothing as necessary to prevent skin contact EYE PROTECTION: Safety glasses or goggles as necessary to prevent eye contact. ENGINEERING CONTROLS: General ventiation is acceptable for ordinary handling. Local exhaust may be needed to control air contaminants when product is heated or misting may occur. @.
