Carcinogenicity

Suspected of causing cancer. In 2012 USEPA Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) reviewed a two species inhalation lifetime study on THF conducted by NTP (1998). Male rats developed renal tumors and female mice developed liver tumors while neither the female rats nor the male mice showed similar results. Because the carcinogenic mechanisms could not be identified clearly in either species for either tumor, the EPA determined that the male rat and female mouse findings are relevant to the assessment of carcinogenic potential in humans. Therefore, the IRIS review concludes that these data in aggregate indicate that there is "suggestive evidence of carcinogenic potential" following exposure to THF by all routes of exposure. This product contains polyvinyl chloride (PVC) that is not a fabricated product, and is therefore, defined and regulated as a toxic and hazardous substance under 29 C.F.R. § 1910.1017 due to the presumed presence of residual vinyl chloride monomer. The concentrations of residual vinyl chloride calculated to be contained in this product are well below the threshold for classification in accordance with 29 C.F.R. § 1910.1200.

California Prop. 65 Warning

This material is not known to contain any chemicals currently listed as carcinogens or reproductive toxins. This product contains trace amounts of chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer. Under normal use conditions, exposure to these chemicals at levels above the State of California “No significant Risk Level” (NSRL) are unlikely. The use of proper personal protective equipment (PPE) and ventilation guidelines will minimize exposure levels to these chemicals.
