PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION Product Name: HYLOMAR HIGH TEMP GASKET DRESSING 5 OZ AE Item No: 81998 Product Type: Aerosol Adhesive/Sealant 2. COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Ingredients Percent ACGIH 8 Hr. TWA: OSHA 8 Hr. TWA: DICHLOROMETHANE 75-09-2 70-80 50 ppm TWA; 174 mg/m3 TWA 25 ppm TWA; 125 ppm STEL (15 min. TWA) PROPANE 74-98-6 5-15 simple asphyxiant; 2500 ppm TWA 1000 ppm TWA; 1800 mg/m3 TWA 3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION Toxicity: Moderately toxic by ingestion and inhalation. May cause eye and skin irritation. Methylene chloride will have an effect on the cardiovascular system. Inhalation of high concentrations of Methylene chloride over long periods of time has caused cancer in laboratory animals. Aspiration hazard if swallowed. Deliberately concentrating and inhaling the vapor may be harmful or fatal. Reports have associated repeated and prolonged overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage (sometimes referred to as "solvent" or "painter's syndrome"). Symptoms include fatigue, concentration difficulties, anxiety, depression, rapid mood swings, and short-term memory loss. Primary Routes of Entry: Eye and skin contact, ingestion, inhalation. Signs and Symptoms of Exposure: Breathing: Symptoms are typically seen at air concentrations exceeding the recommended exposure limits. Symptoms may include nasal and respiratory irritation, central nervous system (CNS) depression (dizziness, drowsiness, weakness, fatique, nausea, headache, possible unconsciousness, coma and even death). May cause skin irritation. Overexposure may cause eye and skin redness, difficulty breathing and vomiting. Swallowing: This material can enter the lungs during swallowing or vomiting and cause lung inflammation and/or damage. Aspiration into the lungs can cause chemical pneumonia which can be fatal.

FIRST AID MEASURES Ingestion: If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. Keep individual calm. Obtain medical attention. Inhalation: Move to fresh air in case of accidental inhalation of vapors. Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed. Obtain medical attention. Skin Contact: Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water removing all contaminated clothes and shoes. If skin irritation persists, call a physician. Eye Contact: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and get medical attention if irritation persists. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Flash Point (?F/C): Less than 0 degrees F. Based on propellant Recommended Extinguishing Media: Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemicals, Foam. Special Fire-Fighting Procedures: Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Keep containers cool. Use equipment or shielding required to protect against bursting or venting of containers. Water spray may be ineffective on flames but should be used to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Hazardous Products Formed by Fire or Thermal Decomposition: Carbon dioxide, Carbon monoxide, Hydrogen chloride. 1 of 3 Item 81998Product name: HYLOMAR HIGH TEMP GASKET DRESSING 5 OZ AE Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazards: Contents under pressure. Exposure to temperatures over 120 degrees F. may cause bursting or venting. Use equipment or shielding to protect personnel from bursting containers. Do not puncture or incinerate container. Lower Explosive Limit: 2.4 Upper Explosive Limit: 9.5 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Spill Procedures: Eliminate all sources of ignition. Maintain good ventilation. Take up with an inert absorbent. Store in a closed waste container until disposal. Use an NIOSH-approved respirator where occupational exposure limits may be exceeded. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Storage: Store away from heat, sparks or open flame. Do not store at temperatures above 120 degrees F. Exposure to high temperatures may cause container to burst. Handling: Avoid breathing vapors, if exposed to high vapor concentration, leave area at once. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not puncture or incinerate container. Do not use near heat, sparks or open flame. Intentionally concentrating and inhaling the vapor may be harmful or fatal. Use in a well ventilated area to prevent irritation by vapors. Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Eyes: Safety glasses with side shields. Skin: Neoprene or nitrile gloves recommended. Ventilation: General; local exhaust ventilation as necessary to control any air contaminants to within their exposure limits during the use of this product. Respiratory Protection: An approved respirator (i.e. NIOSH, etc.) should be worn when exposures are expected to exceed the applicable limits. 9.
