California Proposition 65 requires warnings about exposure to chemicals causing cancer or reproductive harm. Grizzly Industrial products may contain such chemicals, especially during activities like sanding or drilling, which can release lead, silica, arsenic, or chromium. To minimize risk, use proper safety gear, work in ventilated areas, and follow safety guidelines.
California Proposition 65, officially known as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, requires businesses to provide warnings about significant exposures to chemicals that can cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
Why Does This Apply to Grizzly Products?
Some products sold by Grizzly Industrial may contain one or more of these chemicals. While the level of exposure may be low or within safe limits, we provide this warning out of an abundance of caution.
