When solid fiberglass is grinded with an angle grinder is the dust hazardous to my health and will it cause silicosis?

Grinding fiberglass will cause airborne particles, which can be extremely irritating to the airways. A respirator should always be worn when working with fiberglass. Fiberglass fibers and particles are generally too large to go all the way to the alveoli of the lungs to cause silicosis, but they can get in fairly deeply and become ensnared in the moisture respiratory tract, causing a bronchitis-like cough as the body produces mucous to rid itself of the fibers. The fibers will cause inflammation which can trigger Asthma attacks or exacerbate pre-existing pulmonary problems. Silicosis is not likely, but if the particles are small enough to enter the alveoli, it can occur.
