INFORMATION

SYNTHETIC RUBBER

Many ’0’ ring seals, flexible pipes and other similar
items which appear to be natural rubber are made of
synthetic materials called Fluoroelastomers. Under
normal operating conditions this material is safe, and
does not present a health hazard. However, if the
material is damaged by fire or excessive heat, it can
break down and produce highly corrosive Hydrofluoric
acid which can cause serious burns on contact with
skin. Should the material be in a burnt or overheated
condition handle only with seamless industrial gloves.
Decontaminate and dispose of the gloves immediately
after use.

If skin contact does occur, remove any contaminated
clothing immediately and obtain medical assistance
without delay. In the meantime, wash the affected
area with copious amounts of cold water or limewater
for fifteen to sixty minutes.

RECOMMENDED SEALANTS

A number of branded products are recommended in

and

They should be available locally from garage

USED ENGINE OIL

WARNING: Prolonged and repeated
contact with engine or motor oil will result
in the removal of natural fats from the

skin, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis.

Used engine oil contains potentially harmful
contaminants which may cause skin cancer.
Adequate means of skin protection and washing
facilities should be provided.

Handling precautions

1. Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils,

particularly used engine oils.

2. Wear protective clothing, including impervious

gloves where applicable.

3. Do not put oily rags in pockets.
4. Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly

underwear, with oil.

5. Overalls must be cleaned regularly. Discard

unwashable clothing and oil impregnated
footwear.

6. First aid treatment must be obtained immediately

for open cuts and wounds.

7. Use barrier creams, before each work period, to

help the removal of oil from the skin.

8. Wash with soap and water to ensure all oil is

removed (skin cleansers and nail brushes will
help). Preparations containing lanolin replace the
natural skin oils which have been removed.

9. Do not use gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel,

petrol, thinners or solvents for washing the skin.

10. If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice.
11. Where practicable, degrease components prior

to handling.

12. Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye

protection should be worn, for example, goggles
or face shields; in addition an eye wash facility
should be provided.

Disposing of used oils

Environmental protection precaution

It is illegal to pour used oil onto the ground, down
sewers or drains, or into waterways.

Dispose of used oil through authorised waste disposal
contractors. If in doubt contact your Local Authority for
advice on disposal facilities.
