Potential risks

Risk of explosion

Enriched sanding/grinding dust can lead to dust explosions in the presence of ignition sources. Sanding/grinding dust can be electrostatically charged when evacuated with evacuation equipment and pose an ignition hazard.

Risk of injury

When performing work on glass fiber reinforced plastics such as cutting, sanding, grinding, etc., glass fiber dust is produced which contains small fine fibers. This dust or fibers irritate the bronchial tubes and possibly the lungs; fibers settling in the lungs may lead to lung damage .

Skin irritation

The sharp fibers in carbon fiber dust cause tiny injuries when they penetrate into the surface of the skin , which can lead to skin irritations - particularly in combination with dirt.

Safety precautions/instructions

Always wear a fine dust filter mask as well as safety glasses and protective gloves when working with glass fiber reinforced plastic materials.
Avoid stirring up dust and immediately vacuum off all dust created by grinding work on glass fiber reinforced plastic materials with approved vacuum cleaners.
The evacuation equipment must be grounded to prevent a dust explosion.
Only use tools that have a connection for extractor units.
Wipe off remaining dust residues with a moist, lint-free rag.

First aid measures

Eye contact

Immediately rinse eyes thoroughly with running, lukewarm water and contact an eye doctor.

Skin contact

Immediately wash affected skin areas with warm water and soap.

Respiratory paths

Move to fresh air. Contact physician.
