Precautionary Statements

• Product Description: These products are colored, finely powdered, odorless chalks. Health Hazards: Inhalation of dusts from this product may irritate the respiratory system. Skin and eye contact may cause mechanical abrasion. These chalks contain Crystalline Silica, a known human carcinogen by inhalation. Flammability Hazards: These chalks are not flammable. Finely divided dusts from these products can form explosive mixtures in air. If involved in a fire, these products may decompose to form iron oxides, aluminum oxides, silicon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, magnesium oxides, carbon oxides and calcium oxides. POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS EYES: May cause irritation. Chalk dust is discomforting and abrasive to the eyes. SKIN: Prolonged contact may cause irritation. When the product is used as intended, it is unlikely to cause problems. INGESTION: Ingestion of large amount may cause internal irritation. Ingestion is considered an unlikely route of entry in commercial or industrial environments. INHALATION: May irritate the respiratory system. When the product is used as intended, it is unlikely to cause problems. Chronic: Repeated or prolonged inhalation exposure to crystalline silica dust beyond exposure limits may cause chronic lung injury (silicosis). Prolonged inhalation of iron oxide dust is known to produce a benign lung condition known as siderosis. When the product is used as intended, dust levels should not exceed exposure limits. See Sections 8 and 11.
