NDT/NDE: MAGNETIC PARTICLE TEST



Magnetic Particle Inspection:
•      The part is magnetized. 
•      Finely milled iron particles coated with a dye pigment are then applied to the specimen.
•      These particles are attracted to magnetic flux leakage fields and will cluster to form an indication directly over the discontinuity.
•      This indication can be visually detected under proper lighting conditions.
