Base Oil: 60 – 90%, Highly refined mineral oil, CAS No: 64742-65-0
Thickener: 10 – 25%, Calcium soap, CAS No: Proprietary
Performance Additives: 1 – 10%, including anti-wear, rust inhibitors, tackifiers (proprietary blends)
Other Ingredients: Trace dyes and performance boosters, non-hazardous
Impurities: Product tested below recognized regulatory thresholds for hazardous impurities
Inhalation: Move to fresh air immediately if fumes inhaled. Provide supportive care as symptoms warrant. Seek medical attention if respiratory irritation persists.
Skin Contact: Wash thoroughly with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Large exposure may benefit from moisturizing cream.
Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with clean water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing and seek medical advice if symptoms continue.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth and seek immediate medical attention. Small accidental amounts are unlikely to cause acute toxicity.
General Guidance: If symptoms or irritation appear, consult a medical professional.
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Foam, dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide, water fog
Unsuitable Media: Direct water jet can cause grease to splatter
Specific Hazards: Can produce toxic or irritating fumes under strong fire conditions, including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and unidentified hydrocarbons
Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus, full fire-resistant clothing
Special Fire Procedures: Keep containers cool with water spray. Prevent runoff into drains and watercourses.
Personal Precautions: Wear gloves, safety glasses, and non-slip boots. Restrict access to the spill area to prevent slips and falls.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent product from entering drains, surface water, or soil. Grease may be harmful to aquatic life in large quantities.
Clean-Up Methods: Absorb with inert materials like sand or clay granules. Shovel into containers for approved disposal. Use detergent and water to decontaminate surface.
Additional Advice: Spilled material can create oil residue, making floors and surfaces dangerous.
Handling: Avoid repeated or prolonged skin contact. Practice good industrial hygiene: wash after handling, avoid eating or smoking during use. Use mechanical means for large containers.
Storage: Store in closed containers at temperatures between 0°C to 45°C. Protect from direct sunlight, moisture, and sources of ignition. Do not store near incompatible materials such as strong oxidizers.
Other Instructions: Store away from food, drink, and animal feed. Keep out of reach of children.
Engineering Controls: Maintain good workplace ventilation. Use local exhaust for high-temperature work.
Exposure Limits: Occupational Exposure Limits for oil mist (mineral): typically 5 mg/m³ (ACGIH TWA)
Personal Protective Equipment:
— Gloves: Chemical resistant, such as nitrile
— Eye Protection: Safety glasses or goggles
— Respiratory Protection: Approved mask if mist or fumes generated
— Protective Clothing: Long sleeves, industrial coveralls
Hygiene: Avoid eating, drinking or smoking while handling. Wash hands after use.

Chemical Stability: Stable under normal temperature and use. Avoid extreme heat and open flame.
Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizing agents such as peroxides, nitric acid
Hazardous Reactions: Product does not react dangerously under expected conditions. May emit hazardous fumes on excessive heating.
Decomposition Products: Combustion releases carbon monoxide, dioxide, and hydrocarbons.
Polymerization: Will not occur under normal handling.
Acute Toxicity: Low oral and dermal toxicity based on ingredient evaluation. Large intakes could cause gastrointestinal upset due to base oil content.
Skin Corrosion/Irritation: Prolonged contact can lead to mild irritation and redness
Serious Eye Damage/Irritation: Contact may cause temporary discomfort, redness, blurred vision
Respiratory Sensitization: Inhalation of mist/fume (at high temperature) may cause temporary respiratory irritation
Carcinogenicity: Not classified as a carcinogen based on available data. Base oils are highly refined and tested
Mutagenicity/Reproductive Toxicity: No data indicating reproductive risk
Other Effects: Grease contains no recognized allergens or highly sensitizing compounds.
Ecotoxicity: Data limited on finished product, but components (base oil, thickener) show low toxicity to aquatic life at small, controlled release
Persistence and Degradability: Grease is inherently biodegradable over long timescales, but persistent in the environment due to high viscosity and low solubility
Bioaccumulative Potential: Base oil component has low to moderate bioaccumulation if released in high quantities
Mobility in Soil: Material expected to be immobile in soil due to greasy consistency, but can spread through surface water if released
Other Adverse Effects: Avoid uncontrolled release, which could cause physical fouling of water bodies and soil
Waste Disposal: Collect and dispose in accordance with local, regional, and national regulations. Send to licensed hazardous waste facility or approved recycler.
Recycling: Used grease may qualify for energy recovery through approved incineration processes
