These items contain asbestos, which if inhaled may cause lung damage and in some cases, cancer.
The normal handling and fitting of these items should not cause any hazard, but any drilling* grinding or filing of friction materials may produce asbestos dust, and should only be carried out under strictly controlled conditions.

Chemical materials such as solvents, sealers, adhesives, paints, resin foams, battery acids, antifreeze, brake fluids, oils and grease should always be used with caution and stored and handled with care. They may be toxic, harmful, corrosive, irritant or highly flammable and give rise to hazardous fumes and dusts.
The effects of excessive exposure to chemicals may be immediate or delayed; briefly experienced or permanent; cumulative; superficial, life threatening; or may reduce life-expectancy.
DO'S
DO remove chemical materials from the
skin and clothing as soon as practicable after sojling. Change heavily soiled clothing and have it cleaned.
DO carefully read and observe hazard and precaution warnings given on materia! containers (labels) and in any accompanying leaflets, posters or other instructions. Material health and safety data sheets can be obtained from Manufacturers.
DO organise work practices and protective
clothing to avoid: soiling the skin and eyes; breathing vapours/aerosols/dusts/fumes;
inadequate container labelling; fire and explosion hazards.
DO wash before job breaks, before eating, smoking, drinking or using toilet facilities when handling chemical materials.
DO keep work areas clean, uncluttered and free of spills.
