SECTION 2: Hazard identification
General hazard statement
This product as manufactured is defined as an article per 29 CFR 1910.1200. No exposure hazards are anticipated
during normal product
handling conditions. In most cases. the material(s) removed from the workpiece may present a greater hazard than
material released by the
product. Based upon the materials that are contained within the working portion of this product It Is possible that
some dust particles from
this product may be generated. The following safety data is presented for potential exposure hazards as
associated with the dust particles
that are related to this product.

SECTION 3: Composition/information on ingredients
3.1 Substances
Other names / synonyms Buffing wheels are made using a variety of woven cotton sheetings or
blends of woven cotton polyester fibers. In the finishing field they serve two
main
functions: 1) to carry the abrasive particles, formulated in the buffing
compound, across the work surface in order to perform a cutting, deburring
or
coloring action; 2) where required to generate sufficient frictional heat to
permit plastically flowing or burnishing the work to a smooth surface. It is to
perform these two principal functions that buffing wheels are produced in a
range of designs, buffing fabrics and constructions. The nature and shape of
the work piece and the ultimate finish desired dictates the styles best suited
for a particular application. To functionally impart hardness and improve
performance, dip treating solutions may be added to bind the fibers more
tightly together. The treating solutions are water based emulsions,
formulated
using polyvinyl adhesives, vegetable waxes and resins not considered or
known to be hazardous or toxic.
SECTION 4: First-aid measures
4.1 Description of necessary first-aid measures
General advice Dusts may cause coughing, shortness of breath. Prolonged breathing of
dusts may affect
breathing capacity.
SECTION 5: Fire-fighting measures
5.1 Suitable extinguishing media
Use carbon dioxide. dry chemical. or water fog
SECTION 6: Accidental release measures
6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
No additional information available
SECTION 7: Handling and storage
7.1 Precautions for safe handling
Handle with adequate ventilation for nuisance dust. Avoid running buffing wheels dry and
without frequent compound application as needed to prevent rapid deterioration, fraying,
potential scorching, yellowing and burning
SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection
8.2 Appropriate engineering controls
Local exhaust and general ventilation must be adequate to meet exposure standards.
