AMSOIL Material Safety Data Sheet Date Issued/Revised: January 11, 2007
Supersedes:
EYE: Flush with water for 15-20 minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation develops.
SKIN: Wash immediately with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse.
Discard shoes and leather articles saturated with the product. Obtain medical advice if irritation occurs.
INHALATION: Remove exposed person to fresh air. If breathing is labored give oxygen. If breathing has
stopped apply artificial respiration. Get immediate medical attention.
INGESTION: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. If conscious, give 2 glasses of water. If vomiting does occur,
keep head below hips to reduce risk of aspiration. Get immediate medical attention.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Carbon dioxide, dry chemical, alcohol foam and water fog.
SPECIAL PROCEDURES: Water or foam may cause frothing. Use water to keep fire exposed surface cool.
Water spray may be used to flush spills away from exposure. Prevent runoff from fire
control or dilution from entering streams, sewers, or drinking water.
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: For fires in enclosed areas, fire fighters must use self-contained breathing
apparatus.
Isolate spill area. Provide adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate personal protection. Recover free product for
recycle and/or disposal. Add sand, earth or other suitable absorbent to spill area. Prevent entry into sewers and
waterways. Check under Transportation and Labeling (DOT/CERCLA) and Other Regulator Information Section (SARA)
for hazardous substances to determine regulatory reporting requirements for spill.
HANDLING: Keep containers closed. Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing. Wash hands after handling. Empty
container may retain product residue which may exhibit hazards of product. Warning: Continuous
contact with used motor oil has caused skin cancer in laboratory animal tests. Wash thoroughly after
handling.
VENTILATION: Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below exposure
limits.
SKIN: Use Viton or Nitrile gloves to avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact.
EYE: Use splash goggles or face shield where splashing is expected or can occur.
EXPOSURE LIMITS: The Threshold Limit Value (TLV) of 5 mg/m3 is suggested for oil mist.

HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION OF PRODUCT: Toxic oxides of carbon, aldehydes and other products of
incomplete combustion.
ACUTE EXPOSURE
Eye Irritation: Moderate to strong eye irritation. Based on data from components or similar material.
Skin Irritation: Not expected to be a primary skin irritant. Based on data from components or similar
material. Prolonged or repeated skin contact as from clothing wet with material may
cause dermatitis. Symptoms may include redness, edema, drying, defatting, and
cracking of the skin.
Respiratory Irritation: If material is misted or if vapors are generated from heating, exposure may cause
irritation of mucous membranes and the upper respiratory tract similar to that observed
with mineral oil. Based on data from components or similar materials. Under good
industrial hygiene practices where all exposure limits are observed, respiratory irritation
should not be a problem.
CHRONIC EXPOSURE
Chronic Toxicity: No data available to indicate product present at greater than 1.0% are chronic health
hazards.
Carcinogenicity: No data available to indicate product present at greater than 0.1% are a carcinogenic
hazard.
Mutagenicity: No data available to indicate product present at greater than 1.0% present a mutagenic
or genotoxic hazard.
Reproductive Toxicity: No data available to indicate product present at greater than 1.0% present a
reproductive hazard.
Teratogenicity: No data available to indicate product present at greater than 1.0% present a teratogenic
hazards.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Exposure Limits: Under conditions which may generate mists, observe the OSHA PEL of 5 mg per cubic
meter.
If this product as supplied becomes a waste, it does not meet the criteria of a hazardous waste as defined under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) 40 CFR 261.
This product is not classified as hazardous material for DOT shipping. For further information relative to spills
resulting from transportation incidents, refer to the latest DOT Emergency Response Guidebook for Hazardous
Materials.
