On this day, we honor the memory of the nearly 3,000 innocent lives lost in the tragic events of September 11, 2001. The attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City, the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., and the courageous passengers of United Flight 93 forever changed the course of history.   We remember the heroism of the first responders—firefighters, police officers, and medical personnel—who risked, and in many cases, sacrificed their lives to save others. We also reflect on the resilience and unity that arose from the devastation, as communities across the nation came together in the face of overwhelming grief.   As we pay tribute to the fallen, the survivors, and all those affected by this tragedy, we reaffirm our commitment to never forget this profound moment in history, and we continue to honor the strength, courage, and compassion that define the human spirit.   May we always remember.

SinterFire announces the departure of Brandon Graves as CEO. Brandon is moving to Perimeter Insect Guard, where he will help protect people around the world from vector-borne illnesses. We are pleased to announce that Mike Sloff will be assuming the role of CEO. Please join us in congratulating both of these outstanding individuals as they take on their new roles and work toward an exciting future.

SinterFire: Innovating for a Safer Shooting Community At SinterFire, we are dedicated to creating solutions that minimize lead exposure for soldiers, police officers, range owners, and the entire shooting community. Lead toxicity poses significant health risks, impacting the digestive, nervous, respiratory, and reproductive systems. It interferes with enzyme functions, disrupts DNA transcription, and can lead to bone disabilities. Protect yourself and your loved ones by reducing lead exposure. Embrace the importance of proper range hygiene and choose lead-free ammunition. Together, we can make shooting safer for everyone. #LeadFree #SafetyFirst #HealthyShooting #ShootingCommunity #RangeSafety #Innovation #HealthAndSafety #SinterFire #LeadExposure #ProtectOurHeroes https://lnkd.in/gd2hjrjN

Happy Father's Day to all of you Fathers and our Founding Fathers! Keep up the diligence, keep up the fight!

OSHA regulations for blood testing at gun ranges primarily focus on managing lead exposure. Workers at firing ranges are at risk due to the airborne lead particles generated from shooting firearms, especially those using lead-based ammunition. Here's an overview of the key requirements and guidelines: 1. **Monitoring and Assessment**:   - Employers must monitor the workplace to determine the level of airborne lead exposure. If the exposure is above the action level of 30 µg/m³, employers must conduct regular monitoring and assess the levels of airborne lead at least every six months. https://lnkd.in/gNJewHYQ https://lnkd.in/gy2nra-d.    2. **Blood Lead Level (BLL) Testing**:   - OSHA mandates blood lead level testing for employees exposed to airborne lead above the action level. This testing should occur every six months if exposure is above the action level but below the permissible exposure limit (PEL) of 50 µg/m³. If exposure exceeds the PEL, quarterly testing is required until levels fall below the PEL.    3. **Medical Surveillance and Recordkeeping**:   - Employers must provide medical surveillance, including BLL testing, for employees exposed to lead for more than 30 days per year. Records of monitoring results, medical examinations, and other related data must be maintained and made available to employees. 4. **Employee Notification and Corrective Actions**:   - Employers are required to notify employees of their blood lead test results within 15 working days. If BLL exceeds the limits, employers must inform employees of the results and any corrective actions taken to reduce exposure. 5. **Control Measures**:   - Implementing engineering controls (like proper ventilation) and work practice controls (such as regular cleaning using HEPA vacuums) to minimize lead exposure is crucial. Using lead-free ammunition and enforcing proper hygiene practices can also significantly reduce lead exposure risks. For detailed information, you can refer to OSHA's lead standards and CDC guidelines on lead exposure in firing ranges.

SinterFire's NXG (Next Generation) lead-free copper training bullet represents a significant advancement in ammunition technology, providing an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional lead bullets without compromising performance. As concerns about lead contamination in shooting ranges and the environment grow, the development of effective lead-free ammunition is crucial. The NXG bullet is constructed from a sintered copper composite, which involves compressing and heating copper powder to create a solid, cohesive material. This process results in a bullet that retains the density and ballistic characteristics essential for accurate and reliable performance. Unlike some earlier lead-free designs, the NXG bullet offers consistent performance comparable to traditional lead-based ammunition, ensuring that shooters can transition without sacrificing accuracy or reliability. One of the key benefits of the NXG bullet is its reduced environmental impact. Lead contamination from spent ammunition poses a significant risk to wildlife and can lead to soil and water pollution. By eliminating lead, SinterFire's NXG bullets help mitigate these environmental hazards, making shooting ranges safer for both humans and wildlife. In summary, SinterFire's NXG lead-free copper training bullet provides a high-performance, environmentally responsible alternative to traditional lead ammunition. Its consistent performance, reduced environmental impact, and enhanced safety features make it an ideal choice for both training and practical shooting applications.
