Investigation Summary
At 3:45 p.m. on October 25, 1999, an injury accident occurred inside the Department 4029 machine shop at the Price Pfister plumbing fixture manufacturing company. Employee #1, a machine operator, was completing a production set-up on a power tube cutting machine to process copper tubing from rolled stock. When the first test piece of cut tubing exited the machine, Employee #1's right first finger was in the 0.75-inch-wide gap where the tubing enters a metal tube guide. Employee #1's finger tip was lacerated and he was taken by private car to an area clinic for treatment. Employee #1 was not hospitalized.
