SECTION 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing media Suitable extinguishing media
Use flooding quantities of water to fight fires. If water is not available, use carbon dioxide (CO2), dry chemical or dirt.
Unsuitable extinguishing media
None known.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture / Conditions of flammability
: Explosive! Fire or projection hazard Cartridges may ignite and explode if heated to 120°C (248°F) independant of air. Cartridges may ignite and explode if the primer is struck.
Flammability classification (OSHA 29 CFR 1910.106)
: Not applicable.
Explosion Data: Sensitivity to Mechanical Impact / Static Discharge:
: May be ignited if subjected to shock. Sensitive to mechanical impact. May be sensitive to static discharge.
Hazardous combustion products
Carbon oxides; sulfur oxides; Nitrogen oxides (NOx); Metal oxides; Aldehydes; Other unidentified organic compounds.
Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters
Protective equipment for fire-fighters
: Firefighters should wear an approved full-face, self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and impervious clothing. Unconfined ignited cartridges can produce low velocity metallic fragments which may cause eye injury or superficial skin wounds if unprotected by standard firefighter turnout gear.
Special fire-fighting procedures
In case of fire: Evacuate area.
DO NOT fight fire when fire reaches explosives.
Do not enter fire area without proper protection. Shield personnel from exploding cartridges.
Move containers from fire area if safe to do so. Water spray may be useful in cooling equipment exposed to heat and flame.
Cargo fires:
Packages bearing the 1.4S label or packages containing material classified as 1.4S are designed or packaged in such manner that when involved in a fire, may burn vigorously with localized detonations and projection of fragments.
Effects are usually confined to immediate vicinity of packages.
If fire threatens cargo area containing packages bearing the 1.4S label or packages containing material classified as 1.4S, consider isolating at least 15 meters (50 feet) in all directions. Fight fire with normal precautions from a reasonable distance.
Tire or vehicle fires:
Use plenty of water - FLOOD it! If water is not available, use CO2, dry chemical or dirt.
If possible, and WITHOUT RISK, use unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles from maximum distance to prevent fire from spreading to cargo area.
Pay special attention to the tire fires as re-ignition may occur. Stand by with extinguisher ready.
Evacuation:
Large spill: Consider initial evacuation for 50 meters (150 feet) in all directions.
SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Environmental precautions :
Restrict access to area until completion of clean-up. Do not clean up or dispose of, except under supervision of a specialist. All persons dealing with the clean-up should wear the appropriate chemically protective equipment. Refer to protective measures listed in sections 7 and 8.
Ensure spilled product does not enter drains, sewers, waterways, or confined spaces.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
: For solid, intact cartridges:
Handle spills carefully. Do not subject cartridges to mechanical shock. Ventilate the area.
Remove all sources of ignition. Pick up and transfer to properly labelled containers.
If spill occurs in an area where there is a fire burning:
Large spill: Consider initial evacuation for 50 meters (150 feet) in all directions. Refer to Section 5 for firefighting instructions.
If loose powder is present:
All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Do not operate radio transmitters within 100 meters (330 feet) of electric detonators. Pick up and arrange disposal without creating dust.
Contact the proper local authorities.
Special spill response procedures
: If a spill/release in excess of the EPA reportable quantity is made into the environment, immediately notify the national response center in the United States (phone:
1-800-424-8802).
US CERCLA Reportable quantity (RQ): None reportable.

When cartridges are fired, or otherwise discharged, gases, fumes and projections may be formed. These gases, fumes and projectiles may contain trace amounts of the components inside the rockets. Inner cartridge components include: diphenylamine. Chronic exposure to diphenylamine can cause kidney and liver damage, and blood system effects (methemoglobinemia).
Mutagenicity : Not considered to be a hazard.
Under normal conditions of handling, no exposure to any of the harmful components inside the cartridge is expected and no health effects are generally expected as supplied.
Carcinogenicity : Not known to be carcinogenic.
Reproductive effects & Teratogenicity
: Not expected to cause reproductive effects.
Senitization to material : Not expected to be a skin or respiratory sensitizer.
Specific target organ effects : Under normal conditions of handling, no exposure to any of the harmful components inside
Irritancy : Not a hazard under normal conditions of use.
Medical conditions aggravated by overexposure
: Pre-existing skin, eye and respiratory disorders.

Health Hazards or Risks From Exposure
This product is composed of a plastic tube and finished metal alloy cartridge which contains the various components completely sealed within. Therefore, under normal handling of this product, no exposure to any harmful materials will occur. When the ammunition is fired, a small amount of particles may be generated which may be slightly irritating to the eyes and the respiratory tract. The particles may contain trace amounts of these harmful substances:
Lead: Ingestion of large amounts of lead can cause abdominal pain, constipation, cramps, nausea and/or vomiting. Chronic exposure to lead can cause kidney damage, anemia, reproductive effects, developmental effects and permanent nervous system damage in humans including changes in cognitive function. Occupational exposure to lead is associated with lung and stomach cancer. Lead is classified as a probable human carcinogen.
Copper: Inhalation of high concentrations of metallic copper dusts or fumes may cause nasal irritation and/or nausea, vomiting and stomach pain.
Nitroglycerin: Will produce dilation of blood vessels and drop in blood pressure which may affect the heart. It has also been shown to cause methemoglobinemia (cyanosis).
Dibutyl phthalate: May cause harm to the unborn child based on animal experiments. Possible risk of impaired fertility.
Nickel: Repeated exposure may cause an allergic skin reaction consisting of itching, redness, swelling, and rash or urticaria (hives) in sensitized individuals. Epidemiological studies in humans have shown an association between lung and nasal cancers and prolonged occupational exposures to high concentrations of nickel.
Arsenic: Epidemiological studies in humans have shown an association between increased incidences of lung and skin cancer and prolonged exposures to high concentrations of arsenic. Arsenic is classified as a known human carcinogen.
It is unlikely that the amount of particles that someone would be exposed to from firing a loaded round would be sufficient to cause any of these effects.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Contact: Immediately flush out fume or particles with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. If eye irritation develops, call a physician at once.
Skin Contact: Wash skin with plenty of soap and water.
Inhalation: If symptoms of lung irritation occur (coughing, wheezing or breathing difficulty), remove from exposure area to fresh air immediately. If breathing has stopped, perform artificial respiration. Keep affected person warm and at rest. Get medical attention.
Ingestion: If ingested, immediately call a physician.
Medical Conditions Aggravated By Exposure:
There are no medical conditions known to be aggravated by exposure to this product in its solid form. Exposure to lead can aggravate anemia, cardiovascular and respiratory disease.
Recommendations To Physcians:
Remove from exposure, if possible, and treat symptoms

Special Firefighting Procedures: Do not fight fire when fire reaches cargo. Cargo may explode.
Firefighters must wear self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and full protective equipment. Structural firefighters’ protective clothing will only provide limited protection.
Isolate materials not yet involved in the fire. Move containers from fire area if possible; otherwise, cool with carefully applied water spray.
Prevent runoff water from entering storm drains, bodies of water, or other environmentally sensitive areas, if practical.
