Description
Lead is an ingredient commonly added to industrial coatings to improve wear, and can be present in pigments used in coating materials. Sampling of coated products such as structural metal, tanks, and piping completed by Jobs, Skills, Training and Labour in 2013 indicated that coatings applied since 2010 may contain over 90 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) of lead. Workers may be exposed to lead if the coating is disturbed by activities that create a fine dust or fume such as grinding, sanding, scraping, abrasive blasting, cutting, or welding.
