PRODUCT FACT SHEET Compiled: April 1984 by Allied Corporation. Automotive Sector Bendix Aftermarket Brake Division, 1094 Bendix Drive. Jackson, TN 38301 PRODUCTS -- Bendix Friction Materials covered by this Product Fact Sheet can be identified as follows: Drum Brake Segments and Blocks -- "Friction King", "FK", "FKD", "D". "FKL", "L", "M". "E". "ED". "EM", "HP", "ST" and "S-l 100". Disc Brake Pads -- "Organic" and "FK II" (semi-metallic). Note:There is no asbestos in the "wearing surface" of "FK II" disc pads. However, there are chrysotile asbestos fibers in the "backing layer" which is "sandwiched" between the friction material and the steel shoe plate. Health and Safety Information * Inhalation of excessive concentrations of free asbestos fibers can cause certain serious health problems such as asbestosis, lung cancer or mesothelioma. These diseases may not be recognized until many years after exposure. Medical literature indicates that people who smoke are at significantly increased health risk when working with free asbestos. No Threshold Limit Value (TLV) has been established for chrysotile asbestos fibers coated with phenolic resin. However, OSHA has established a TLV for free asbestos fibers of 2.0 fibers/cc of air. OSHA has proposed a reduction in this TLV to 0.2 fibers/cc. Fire and Explosion -Product is classified as non-combustible, requires no special fire fighting procedures, and does not present any unusual fire, explosion or reactivity hazard. Small fires may be extinguished with carbon dioxide or dry chemicaL Large fires may be extinguished with foam and water. Recommended Waste Disposal - Dispose of in proper receptacles appropriately labelled in accordance with applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations. Recommended Precaution if airborne asbestos fiber concentrations exceed OSHA limits. NIOSH approved respirators should be worn and proper engineering controls implemented. If product is ground or machined, local ventilation to control exposure to asbestos fibers is recommended (see reverse side). The work environment should be monitored to determine whether employee exposure exceeds OSHA threshold limit value in accordance with OSHA regulation 29 CFR Part 1910.1001. Packages containing the Product should be labelled in accordance with OSHA regulation 29 CFR Part 1910.1001 (g) (2) as follows: | CAUTION Contains Asbestos Fibers Avoid Creating Dust Breathing Asbestos Dust May Cause Serious Bodily Harm Standard industrial hygiene practices, including good housekeeping and vacuuming or wet cleaning work surfaces to prevent asbestos fibers from becoming airborne, should be instituted or implemented and maintained. The foregoing data is submitted solely for your information, consideration, and investigation. Bendix makes no warranties, either express or implied, and assumes no responsibility for accuracy of the foregoing data. See reverse side for Friction Materials Standards Institute's recommended procedures tor reducing asbestos dust during brake servicing. HWCPI0000177
