Investigation Summary
On October 3, 2012, Employee #1 of Harris Thermal Transfer Products Inc., was using a "big" air grinder without a guard. Employee #1 was smoothing out a welding bevel so that the flange would fit tight when all of a sudden the grinding wheel broke and pieces of the wheel struck his left pinky finger. Employee #1 was taken to the hospital and had surgery on his finger the next morning. The injury sustained was a dislocated knuckle and a bone that was broken in two places where a pin was inserted.
