SECTION 3 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
IMMEDIATE HEALTH EFFECTS
Eye: Not expected to cause prolonged or significant eye irritation.
Skin: Contact with the skin is not expected to cause prolonged or significant irritation. Not expected to be
harmful to internal organs if absorbed through the skin.
Ingestion: Not expected to be harmful if swallowed.
Inhalation: Not expected to be harmful if inhaled. Contains a petroleum-based mineral oil. May cause
respiratory irritation or other pulmonary effects following prolonged or repeated inhalation of oil mist at
airborne levels above the recommended mineral oil mist exposure limit. Symptoms of respiratory irritation
may include coughing and difficulty breathing.
SECTION 4 FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye: No specific first aid measures are required. As a precaution, remove contact lenses, if worn, and
flush eyes with water.
Skin: No specific first aid measures are required. As a precaution, remove clothing and shoes if
contaminated. To remove the material from skin, use soap and water. Discard contaminated clothing
and shoes or thoroughly clean before reuse.
Ingestion: No specific first aid measures are required. Do not induce vomiting. As a precaution, get
medical advice.
Inhalation: No specific first aid measures are required. If exposed to excessive levels of material in the
air, move the exposed person to fresh air. Get medical attention if coughing or respiratory discomfort
occurs.
SECTION 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FIRE CLASSIFICATION:
OSHA Classification (29 CFR 1910.1200): Not classified by OSHA as flammable or combustible.
NFPA RATINGS: Health: 0 Flammability: 1 Reactivity: 0
FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES:
Flashpoint: (Cleveland Open Cup) 220 °C (428 °F) (Min)
Autoignition: No Data Available
Flammability (Explosive) Limits (% by volume in air): Lower: Not Applicable Upper: Not
Applicable
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use water fog, foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide (CO2) to extinguish
flames.
PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS:
Fire Fighting Instructions: This material will burn although it is not easily ignited. For fires involving this
material, do not enter any enclosed or confined fire space without proper protective equipment, including
self-contained breathing apparatus.
Combustion Products: Highly dependent on combustion conditions. A complex mixture of airborne
solids, liquids, and gases including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and unidentified organic
compounds will be evolved when this material undergoes combustion.
SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Protective Measures: Eliminate all sources of ignition in vicinity of spilled material.
Spill Management: Stop the source of the release if you can do it without risk. Contain release to
prevent further contamination of soil, surface water or groundwater. Clean up spill as soon as possible,
observing precautions in Exposure Controls/Personal Protection. Use appropriate techniques such as
applying non-combustible absorbent materials or pumping. Where feasible and appropriate, remove
contaminated soil. Place contaminated materials in disposable containers and dispose of in a manner
consistent with applicable regulations.
Reporting: Report spills to local authorities and/or the U.S. Coast Guard's National Response Center at
(800) 424-8802 as appropriate or required.
SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
General Handling Information: Avoid contaminating soil or releasing this material into sewage and
drainage systems and bodies of water.
Static Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when handling
this material. To minimize this hazard, bonding and grounding may be necessary but may not, by
themselves, be sufficient. Review all operations which have the potential of generating and accumulating
an electrostatic charge and/or a flammable atmosphere (including tank and container filling, splash filling,
tank cleaning, sampling, gauging, switch loading, filtering, mixing, agitation, and vacuum truck operations)
and use appropriate mitigating procedures. For more information, refer to OSHA Standard 29 CFR
1910.106, 'Flammable and Combustible Liquids', National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 77,
'Recommended Practice on Static Electricity', and/or the American Petroleum Institute (API)
Recommended Practice 2003, 'Protection Against Ignitions Arising Out of Static, Lightning, and Stray
Currents'.
Container Warnings: Container is not designed to contain pressure. Do not use pressure to empty
container or it may rupture with explosive force. Empty containers retain product residue (solid, 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 sources of ignition. They may explode
and cause injury or death. Empty containers should be completely drained, properly closed, and promptly
returned to a drum reconditioner or disposed of properly.
SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS:
Consider the potential hazards of this material (see Section 3), applicable exposure limits, job activities,
and other substances in the work place when designing engineering controls and selecting personal
protective equipment. If engineering controls or work practices are not adequate to prevent exposure to
harmful levels of this material, the personal protective equipment listed below is recommended. The user
should read and understand all instructions and limitations supplied with the equipment since protection is
usually provided for a limited time or under certain circumstances.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
Use in a well-ventilated area.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Eye/Face Protection: No special eye protection is normally required. Where splashing is possible, wear
safety glasses with side shields as a good safety practice.
Skin Protection: No special protective clothing is normally required. Where splashing is possible, select
protective clothing depending on operations conducted, physical requirements and other substances in
the workplace. Suggested materials for protective gloves include: 4H (PE/EVAL), Nitrile Rubber, Silver
Shield, Viton.
Respiratory Protection: No respiratory protection is normally required.
If user operations generate an oil mist, determine if airborne concentrations are below the occupational
exposure limit for mineral oil mist. If not, wear an approved respirator that provides adequate protection
from the measured concentrations of this material. For air-purifying respirators use a particulate
cartridge.
Use a positive pressure air-supplying respirator in circumstances where air-purifying respirators may not
provide adequate protection.

ADDITIONAL TOXICOLOGY INFORMATION:
This product contains petroleum base oils which may be refined by various processes including severe
solvent extraction, severe hydrocracking, or severe hydrotreating. None of the oils requires a cancer
warning under the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200). These oils have not
been listed in the National Toxicology Program (NTP) Annual Report nor have they been classified by the
International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as; carcinogenic to humans (Group 1), probably
carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A), or possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B). These oils have not
been classified by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) as:
confirmed human carcinogen (A1), suspected human carcinogen (A2), or confirmed animal carcinogen
with unknown relevance to humans (A3).
During use in engines, contamination of oil with low levels of cancer-causing combustion products occurs.
Used motor oils have been shown to cause skin cancer in mice following repeated application and
continuous exposure. Brief or intermittent skin contact with used motor oil is not expected to have serious
effects in humans if the oil is thoroughly removed by washing with soap and water.
SECTION 12 ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
ECOTOXICITY
The toxicity of this material to aquatic organisms has not been evaluated. Consequently, this material
should be kept out of sewage and drainage systems and all bodies of water.
ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
This material is not expected to be readily biodegradable.
SECTION 13 DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Use material for its intended purpose or recycle if possible. Oil collection services are available for used
oil recycling or disposal. Place contaminated materials in containers and dispose of in a manner
consistent with applicable regulations. Contact your sales representative or local environmental or health
authorities for approved disposal or recycling methods.
