6. Are the discs dangerous during transport?

No. The product is not covered by international regulations on the transport of dangerous goods.

7. How stable are the discs under normal conditions?

Coated abrasives are stable when correctly handled and stored, and do not undergo decomposition in normal use.

8. Can hazardous substances be released during use?

At temperatures above 250 °C, hazardous or toxic decomposition products may be generated. In addition, hazardous dust from the workpiece material can be produced during grinding or sanding and must be controlled.

Section 14 – Transport information

The product is not covered by international regulation on the transport of dangerous goods. Mirka WPF 33/36MM Rose Discs can be transported under normal conditions without specific dangerous-goods classification.

Section 8 – Individual protection measures

Before grinding or sanding, it is recommended to perform a risk assessment and to select personal protective equipment according to the specific application and the material being worked. The following individual protection measures are indicated for coated abrasives of this group:

• Respiratory protection: Use suitable respiratory protective equipment, particularly where dust from the workpiece may exceed occupational exposure limits.
• Hand protection: Wear protective gloves adapted to the task and material being processed.
• Eye protection: Wear protective goggles or a face shield to protect against particles and debris.
• Hearing protection: Use appropriate hearing protection when noise levels from the grinding or sanding process are high.
• Body protection: Use protective clothing suitable for the work environment to minimise skin exposure to dust and particles.

Hazardous dust from the workpiece material can be generated during grinding and sanding operations. National regulations and occupational exposure limit values for dust must be observed, and suitable extraction or ventilation should be used where required.
