I'm attaching' for your information, copy of a letter received by RPM a year ago in which the one agency clearly indicates that there is an obvious conflict in definitions. It would appear that one should follow the OSHA standard if the product is Intended for Industrial products only and the FHSA definition for products suitable for consumer, but in our case we don't always know. The variance in their definitions is attached hereto and at this point you will just want it for your records and sefarence. Cordially yours. . . . .Julius JKN/tw OSHA definition: Combustible liquid - having flashpoint at or above 100F. Flammable liquid - having flashpoint below 100F.
