Warning

The use of carbide in cutting is generally a safe and reasonable practice. When used properly, these products
are designed to be safe and without risk to health and property. Please review the recommended use and
pay particular attention to insure the tooling is used within its designed speed ranged and operating forces.
Misuse may represent a hazard to people and property.

These products use materials which are classified as hazardous by OSHA. This may include one or more of the
following carbide, titanium carbide, chromium carbide, chromium cadmium, cobalt, and nickel.

Carbide is a material which is brittle in nature. It will fracture from shock or impact which may cause pieces to
detach at high velocities. Carbides should not be hammered or fitted with undo force. Suitable eye protection
should be worn during all processes.

Carbide grinding may release dangerous levels of cobalt. Conventional precautions related to the operations
of safe grinding should always be observed.
Additional information and material safety data sheets are available on request.
