I have two matching high voltage insulators about 5 inches tall with
shiny white ceramic between metallic bases and terminals. On the
ceramic
material is printed beryllium oxide. I placed them in a plastic bag
and
washed my hands. I don't intend to file or saw them. Are these
insulators a hazard to me?


Not unless you break them, and inhale any resulting powder.  :)
