2. COMPOSITION / INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS
THIS PRODUCT IS NOT A WHMIS CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE.
See Section 8 for Occupational Exposure Guidelines.
3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Physical Description: Liquid Lightly Coloured Hydrocarbon Odour
Routes of Exposure: Exposure will most likely occur through skin contact or from inhalation of
mechanically or thermally generated oil mists.
Hazards:
This product is not expected to be irritating and has a low level of toxicity under
normal use.
Inhalation of oil mist or vapours from hot oil may cause irritation of the upper
respiratory tract.
For further information on health effects, see Section 11.
4. FIRST AID
Flush eyes with water for at least 15 minutes while holding eyelids open. If irritation
Eyes:
occurs and persists, obtain medical attention.
Wipe excess from skin. Wash contaminated skin with mild soap and water for 15

Revision Number: 7
Not normally required; obtain medical attention if large amounts have been ingested.
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep head below hips to
prevent aspiration of liquid into the lungs.
Remove victim from further exposure. Additional first aid treatment is not ordinarily
Inhalation:
required.
Notes to Physician: In general, lubricating oils have low oral toxicity. High pressure injection under the
skin may have serious consequences and may require urgent treatment.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Dry Chemical
Extinguishing Media:
Carbon Dioxide
Foam
Water Fog
Firefighting Instructions: Material will not burn unless preheated. Product will float and can be reignited
on surface of water. Do not use a direct stream of water as it may spread fire.
Water may be used to flush spills away from exposure. Use water to cool fire
exposed containers. Do not enter confined fire space without adequate
protective clothing and an approved positive pressure self-contained
breathing apparatus.
Hazardous Combustion Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and dense smoke are produced on
combustion.
Products:
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Eliminate all ignition sources. Isolate hazard area and restrict access. Wear appropriate breathing
apparatus (if applicable) and protective clothing. Stop leak only if safe to do so. Spilled material is slippery.
Dike and contain land spills; contain spills to water by booming. For large spills remove by mechanical
means and place in containers. Absorb residue or small spills with absorbent material and remove to non-
leaking containers for disposal. Flush area with water to remove trace residue. Dispose of recovered
material as noted under Disposal Considerations. Notify appropriate environmental agency(ies).
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Avoid excessive heat, formation of oil mist, breathing of vapours and mist of hot oil and
Handling:
prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Wash with soap and water prior to eating, drinking,
smoking, applying cosmetics or using toilet facilities. Launder contaminated clothing prior to
reuse. Use good personal hygiene.
Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area, away from heat and ignition sources.
Storage:
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
The following information, while appropriate for this product, is general in nature. The selection of
personal protective equipment will vary depending on the conditions of use.
OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS (Current ACGIH TLV/TWA unless otherwise noted):
Oil mist (mineral): 5 mg/m3 (STEL: 10 mg/m3)
Not normally required. Local ventilation is recommended if oil mist is present or if
Mechanical
exposure limit is exceeded. Make up air should always be supplied to balance air
Ventilation:
exhausted (either generally or locally).
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT:
No special eye protection is routinely necessary. Wear safety glasses as appropriate.
Eye Protection:
