Safety data sheets by product

Transmission fluid SDS

Transmission fluid (also searched as atf, automatic transmission fluid, dexron) has no single safety data sheet. Each maker writes its own, and Section 2 of the sheet you hold decides what it sets off under OSHA. The employer keeps it readily accessible each shift (29 CFR 1910.1200(g)(8)). 2 official sheets are linked below.

Why does the transmission fluid SDS change with the brand?

Automatic fluids and manual transmission fluids are separate products with separate sheets, and a brand sells several of each. Lucas Multi-Vehicle Automatic Transmission Fluid, revised Sep 25, 2026, lists skin sensitization Category 1 and reproductive toxicity Category 2, with a Warning signal word. It is written to the HCS 2024 version of the standard, gives a flash point above 200 °C in Section 9 and says in Section 14 that the fluid is not regulated for transport under DOT, TDG, IMDG or IATA. A sheet for a fluid of another specification can list other classes.

The sheets below carry dates from Sep 25, 2026.

What should I read first on my sheet?

Match the sheet to the exact product on the container: an automatic fluid and a manual fluid are separate products, even from one brand. Lucas's multi-vehicle ATF lists skin sensitization and reproductive toxicity with a Warning signal word, so a fluid that looks routine can carry classes. Read Section 2 for them and Section 8 for the protection the sheet names.

What does your sheet set off under OSHA?

Paragraphs a transmission fluid sheet can set off
If your sheet saysWhat followsParagraphs
Section 2 lists any classificationWritten program with chemical list, training, sheet access, labels.(29 CFR 1910.1200(c), (e)(1), (f)(6), (g)(8), (h)(1); 1926.59)
Section 2 lists no classificationThat sheet sets off none of these. The same name can carry another formula.(29 CFR 1910.1200(c), (d)(1))
Section 8 lists an OSHA exposure limitThe 1910.1000 tables, and Table 1 of 1926.55 in construction.(29 CFR 1910.1000; 1926.55)

More for transmission fluid

Finding the transmission fluid sheet is the easy part

Keeping every sheet read, current and ready for an inspector is the work that never ends. HazComFast does it with your crew: the AI extracts each sheet, and every reading leaves a proof.

Extraction: the AI reads every sheet

Scanned, long or in Spanish, it reads

Drop in the transmission fluid sheet, scanned or not, in English or Spanish. HazComFast reads every page, with progress shown page by page, so a 32-page sheet gets read to the last page.

Every section a foreman needs

Composition, spill response, storage, physical properties, stability and toxicology land on the product page with their source, so the sections a foreman actually needs aren't buried in a PDF.

The AI proposes, a person signs off

Each hazard shows where it came from: extracted from the sheet, or confirmed by a named person on a date. Confidence is measured against the text of the sheet, and below a floor every field is checked by hand before it saves.

A pictogram is never guessed

A pictogram only goes on your label if it's actually on the sheet or follows from its H-codes. H225 on the sheet means GHS02 and DANGER on the label, derived from OSHA's Appendix C.

Checked against 200 real sheets

Every change to the AI is checked against a reference set of 200 real SDSs before it ships. A field it isn't sure about is highlighted for you to check, and the inventory flags products whose extraction hasn't been validated yet.

Proof of reading, without the chasing

Nobody has to remember to ask

Add a hazardous product to a site and every worker there gets one notice with a 7-day due date. A reminder follows at day 3 and an escalation at day 7.

“I read it” can't be a reflex tap

The confirm button stays grey until the worker has scrolled through first aid or to the last page of the PDF and has spent 15 seconds there. The record keeps how long and how far.

A proof of reading the worker keeps

The worker ticks an attestation, and the record keeps which SDS version they read, the server time and the device. They can download their own PDF of it.

A new sheet means a new reading

When a manufacturer updates a sheet and the hazards change, everyone who confirmed the old one is asked to read the new one. Each confirmation keeps which version they read, for which jobsite.

Who read what, in one console

See who hasn't read what, nudge everyone overdue in one click, and export last month's confirmations for one jobsite, each with the SDS version they read.

The reading joins the training file

Each confirmed reading also lands in the worker's training file as a HazCom reading record, so your training records and your SDS records tell the same story.

From the sheet to the label

A label that can't go out empty

A label with five pictograms keeps all five, because the format switches. A label with no hazard information won't print. When the sheet changes, you get a relabeling task with its six-month deadline.

English and Spanish, side by side

Hazard and precautionary statements show in English and Spanish on every product page. A Spanish sheet that says PELIGRO is recorded as DANGER, and the original file stays attached as you received it.

Every print on record

Every print run is logged with exactly what went on the labels. When a hazard changes, the relabel task can only be closed by a print made after the change.

In the field, on the phone

Scan the drum

Scan the QR code on a drum and the page shows the maker and the CAS number under the title, so you know you hold the right one. A drum taken out of inventory still opens its SDS, marked as removed.

Search inside the sheet

Type “eye contact” and you land on first aid. Pinch to zoom on the small print.

Still there with no signal

Offline, the worker opens the sheet itself, with first aid and what to do in a spill. “Available offline” only shows when the PDF is on the phone.

When the inspector asks

The binder, in one click

One click gives you the jobsite's SDS binder, with transmission fluid in it, as a ZIP with a CSV index, and a dated CSV or PDF of who confirmed reading what. That is what you hand an inspector or a GC.

No expired-sheet myth

HazComFast never tells you a sheet has expired, because OSHA doesn't set an expiration date. You choose your own review interval, and the app labels it as your internal policy.

The chemical list behind it

Bring your spreadsheet

Imported products get the same pictograms as ones entered by hand, and importing the same file twice doesn't duplicate anything.

Each product, at every site

Each product page shows every site it's stored at with quantities, and warns you if something incompatible is stored at the same site.

A program that stays true

The chemical list in your HazCom program is built from each jobsite's inventory. Remove a product and the program tells you the list is out of date, with a button to rebuild it.

Start with the free SDS Binder Kit. It works with nothing but a printer.

Free to use as well: the chemical inventory template and the SDS QR code generator. The software side: the chemical inventory in HazComFast.

Questions about transmission fluid

Which sheet do I need for a multi-vehicle ATF?

The one for the exact product on the container. Lucas's multi-vehicle fluid has Part 10418 on its sheet, and the part number is the quickest way to match a sheet to a bottle.

Does the specification on the label, such as Dexron, change the sheet?

The specification names the performance level. The sheet is written for the maker's formula, so two fluids with the same specification can list different classes.
