This product is considered to be a finished article as per 29 CFR 1910.1200(C) and is
therefore exempt from the requirements of the Hazard Communication standard. Rubber
products stored for prolonged period of time in a poorly ventilated area or heated during
reprocessing may generate measurable amounts of volatile N-Nitrosamines, some of which
may be animal carcinogens. Insure proper ventilation where this product is used or stored.
