OTHER INFORMATION CURRENT ISSUE DATE: 3/21/97 PREVIOUS ISSUE DATE: 11/10/95 CHANGES TO MSDS FROM PREVIOUS ISSUE DATE ARE DUE TO THE FOLLOWING: Administrative changes to correct the manufacturer name, address, phone number and contact doctor. The document name has been changed accordingly and is now ASFM0001 (was ASBS0001).. Also added edge code MNT. Other Information: 1. Always follow the "Work Practices and Engineering Controls for Brake and Clutch Inspection, Disassembly, Repair and Assembly - Mandatory" (29 CFR 1910.1001, Appendix F). Although some friction materials used for brake service still contain asbestos, most suppliers are replacing asbestos with steel, mineral, and/or synthetic fibers. Because long term medical effects of these fibers are unknown, it is suggested that exposure levels be controlled for all replacement friction materials. 2. Whenever possible, purchase friction materials that are preground and ready for installation. If machining is necessary, there is a possibility that the Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) for one or more of the ingredients in the friction material may be exceeded. Local exhaust ventilation must be provided so that worker exposures are maintained below the PEL. Local exhaust ventilation consists of dust collection hoods or enclosures connected by ductwork or piping to a pollution control device. 3. In certain grinding operations where concentrations cannot be reduced below the PEL, a respirator program should be implemented. Respirators also may be required during certain maintenance, start-up or emergency situations where engineering controls cannot maintain concentrations below the PEL. 4. Good housekeeping is essential in a workplace where friction materials are handled. Vacuums Efficiency Particulate (HEPA) filters should be used to remove accumulations of fri use compressed air or dry sweeping for cleaning.

Good personal hygiene practices are important in minimizing dust exposures. Do not smoke. Wash before eating. If the PEL is exceeded, protective equipment should be worn. Change into work clothes upon arrival at work and change from work clothes at conclusion of work. DANGER CONTAINS ASBESTOS FIBERS AVOID CREATING DUSTS CANCER AND LUNG DISEASE HAZARD Appendix F to S 1910.1001 -- Work Practices and Engineering Controls for Automotive Brake and Clutch Inspection. Disassembly. Repair and Assembly -- Mandatory This mandatory appendix specifies engineering controls and work practices that must be implemented by the employer during automotive brake and clutch inspection, disassembly, repair, and assembly operations. Proper use of these engineering controls and work practices will reduce employees' asbestos exposure below the permissible exposure level dining clutch and brake inspection, disassembly, repair, and assembly operations. The employer shall institute engineering controls and work practices using either the method set forth in paragraph [A] or paragraph [B] of this appendix, or any other method which the employer can demonstrate to be equivalent in terms of reducing employee exposure to asbestos as defined and which meets the requirements described in paragraph [C] of this appendix, for those facilities in which no more than 5 pairs of brakes or 5 clutches are inspected, disassembled, reassembled and/or repaired per week, the method set forth in paragraph [D] of this appendix may be used: 1A1 Negative Pressure Endosure/HEPA Vacuum System Method. (1) The brake and clutch inspection, disassembly, repair, and assembly operations shall be enclosed to cover and contain the clutch or brake assembly and to prevent the release of asbestos fibers into the worker's breathing zone. (2) The enclosure shall be sealed tightly and thoroughly inspected for leaks before work begins on brake and clutch inspection, disassembly, repair, and assembly. (3) The enclosure shall be such that the worker can clearly see the operation and shall provide impermeable sleeves through which the worker can handle the brake and clutch inspection, disassembly, repair and assembly. The integrity of the sleeves and ports shall be examined before work begins. (4) A HEPA-filtered vacuum shall be employed to maintain the enclosure under negative pressure throughout the operation. Compressed air may be used to remove asbestos fibers or particles from the enclosure. (5) The HEPA vacuum shall be used first to loosen the asbestos-containing residue from the brake and clutch parts and then to evacuate the loosened asbestos-containing material from the enclosure and capture the material in the vacuum filter. (6) The vacuum's filter, when full, shall be first wetted with a fine mist of water, then removed and placed immediately in an impermeable container, labeled according to paragraph (j) (2) (ii) of the standard and disposed of according to HWBUI0002620 ^IliedSignal MA TERIAL SA FETY DA TA SHEET Product Name - Cured Organic Segment/Drum Brake - Asbestos (7) Any spills or releases of asbestos-containing waste material from inside of the enclosure or vacuum hose or vacuum filter ghall be immediately cleaned up and disposed of according to paragraph (k) of the standard. |B1______ Low PressureAVet Cleaning Method (1) A catch basin shall be placed under the brake assembly, positioned to avoid splashes and spills. (2) The reservoir shall contain water containing an organic solvent or wetting agent. The flow of liquid shall be controlled such that the brake assembly is gently flooded to prevent the asbestos-containing brake dust from becoming airborne. (3) The aqueous solution shall be allowed to flow between the brake drum and brake support before the drum is removed. (4) After removing the brake drum, the wheel hub and back of the brake assembly shall be thoroughly wetted to suppress dust. (5) The brake support plate, brake shoes and brake components used to attach the brake shoes shall be thoroughly washed before removing the old shoes. (6) In systems using filters, the filters, when full, shall be first wetted with a fine mist of water, then removed and placed immediately in an impermeable container, labeled according to paragraph (j) (2) (ii) of this section and disposed of according to paragraph (k) of this section (7) Any spills of asbestos-containing aqueous solution or any asbestos-containing waste material shall be cleaned up immediately and disposed of according to paragraph (k) of this section. (8) The use of dry brushing during low pressure/wet cleaning operations is prohibited. IC1______Equivalent Methods An equivalent method is one which has sufficient written detail so that it can be reproduced and has been demonstrated that the exposures resulting from the equivalent method are equal to or less than the exposures which would result from the use of the method described in paragraph [A] of this appendix. For purposes of making this comparison, the employer shall assume that exposures resulting fiom the use of the method described in paragraph [A] of this appendix shall not exceed 0.004 Occ, as measured by the OSHA reference method and as averaged over at least 18 personal samples. m. Wet Method (1) A spray bottle, hose nozzle, or other implement capable of delivering a fine mist of water or amended water or other delivery system capable of delivering water at low pressure, shall be used to first thoroughly wet the brake and clutch parts. Brake and clutch components shall then be wiped clean with a cloth. (2) The cloth shall be placed in an impermeable container, labeled according to paragraph (j) (2) (ii) of the standard and then disposed of according to paragraph (k) of the standard, or the cloth shall be laundered in a way to prevent the release of asbestos fibers in excess of 0.1 fiber per cubic centimeter of air. (3) Any spills of solvent or any asbestos-containing waste material shall be cleaned up immediately according to paragraph (k) of the standard (4) The use of dry brushing during the wet method operations is prohibited j-- ^ MSDS Number: ASFM0001 Current Issue Date: 3/21/97 Vf-- Page 9 of 9 HWBUI0002621
