Grinding Dust
Grinding dust becomes airborne causing harmful health side effects to operators and nearby employees. Metal grinding dust turns respirable when broken up into particles 5 microns in size. These microscopic sized particles enter and deposit deep within the lungs leading to impaired lung functioning and possible lung disease.
