Section IV: Fire and Explosion Data

Flash Point and Method Used: None
Extinguishing Media: Do not use water on metal fires, use dry chemical, dry sand or
CO2 to smother fire.
Special Fire-Fighting Procedures: Do not breathe fumes. For large fires involving this
material, fire fighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Fires or explosions may be initiated by
exposing any concentrated dust suspension in an enclosed area to a spark or flame.
This does not apply to product "as supplied" but to dust allowed to accumulate from
grinding or machining processes.
Product Name: COLMONOY No. 225, 226, 227, 228 Page 2 of 3
Section V. Reactivity Data

Stability: This product is stable.
Conditions to Avoid: Under special conditions, Nickel can react with carbon monoxide
in reducing atmospheres to form Ni (CO)4.
Incompatibility: Acids, strong oxidizing agents.
Hazardous Decomposition or Byproducts: During melting or spraying, nickel-oxide
fumes can be formed. Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur.
Section VI. Health Hazard Data

Expected Route of Entry: Inhalation of fumes (when heated) would be main route of
exposure. Dust can be created if grinding or machining parts after heating.
Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic): Effects associated with over exposure to metal
dusts may include respiratory irritation, conjunctivitis, or pneumoconiosis. Repeated
handling can cause skin rash (dermatitis) in people sensitive to nickel.
Carcinogens: The National Toxicology Program (NTP) indicates that nickel and certain
nickel compounds may reasonably be anticipated to be carcinogens. IARC lists nickel
as possibly carcinogenic to humans.
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure: Sneezing, coughing, irritation of nose, throat or
eyes. Skin rash or itching.
Medical Conditions that May be Aggravated: Allergies or respiratory ailments.
Emergency and First Aid Procedures: Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Skin
contact: Wash thoroughly with mild soap and water. Eyes: Flush with water until clear
of particles. Ingestion: If large amount, induce vomiting. If symptoms persist after any
route of exposure, seek medical attention.
Section VII. Precautions for Safe Handling and Use

Procedure in Case of Spill: Take up by wet sweeping or vacuum. If vacuum exhausts
to workplace, HEPA filters would be required. Do not create airborne dust. Place in
cover, labeled containers and save for re-use or disposal.
Waste Disposal Method: Normally reclaimed for scrap metal values. If disposal is
necessary, follow rules for regulated waste of this nature.
Precautions for Handling or Storing: Keep away from strong oxidizing agents. Avoid
repeated handling with bare skin. Do not eat or smoke in areas of use.
Section VIII. Control Measures

Respiratory Protection: If exposure limits are exceeded, wear NIOSH approved
respirator giving protection from dust or fume being generated. See OSHA “Respiratory
Protection Program, 29 CFR 1910.134.
Recommended ventilation: Good local exhaust with dust collection system needed
for spraying.
Colmonoy No. 225, 226, 227 and 228 Page 3 of 3
Gloves: If handling material is unavoidable, skin guard cream or work gloves are
advisable.
Eye Protection: Protective lenses, possibly shaded, appropriate for process being
performed. If grinding after welding, safety glasses or goggles should be worn.
Other: Wear clean, flame-resistant work clothing that is laundered separately.
General Health and Safety Warning: THE FOLLOWING IS A PRECAUTIONARY

STATEMENT THAT APPLIES TO ALL WELDING/BRAZING PRODUCTS; keep your
head out of the fumes. Use enough ventilation, exhaust at work, or both, to keep fumes
and gases from your breathing zone. See American National Standard Z49.1, “Safety
in Welding & Cutting” published by the American Welding Society, 550 N.W. LeJeune
Road, Miami, FL 33126 and OSHA 29 CFR 1910 available from the Superintendent of
