First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
If breathing has stopped, perform artificial respiration and obtain medical assistance immediately! If breathing is difficult, provide fresh air and call physician.
For skin burns from arc radiation, promptly flush with cold water. Get medical attention for burns or irritations that persist. To remove dust or particles wash with mild soap and water
Symptoms: skin burns from arc radiation
For radiation burns due to arc flash, see physician. To remove dusts or fumes flush with water for at least fifteen minutes. If irritation persists, obtain medical assistance.
Immediate Medical Attention
Call a physician immediately. Obtain medical assistance immediately. See physician. Get medical attention for burns or irritations that persist.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
No specific recommendations for welding consumables. Welding arcs and sparks can ignite combustible and flammable materials. Use the extinguishing media recommended for the burning materials and fire situation.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Handle with care to avoid stings and cuts. Wear gloves when handling welding consumables. Avoid exposure to dust. Do not ingest. Some individuals can develop an allergic reaction to certain materials. Retain all warning and identity labels.
Keep separate from chemical substances like acids and strong bases, which could cause chemical reactions.
Do not ingest.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Use respirator or air supplied respirator when welding or brazing in a confined space, or where local exhaust or ventilation is not sufficient to keep exposure values within safe limits. Use special care when welding painted or coated steels since hazardous substances from the coating may be emitted. Ensure sufficient ventilation, local exhaust, or both, to keep welding fumes and gases from breathing zone and general area.
