This gray, free-flowing powder is designed for dry magnetic particle testing in visible light, providing strong contrast on ferrous metals. It is suitable for detecting surface and slightly subsurface flaws and can be applied using a powder blower or bottle, allowing for effective magnetization and indication even after current is turned off.

Overview
#1 Gray provides strong contrast on most metal surfaces during dry method mag particle testing in visible light. It is ready-to-use for visible light flaw detection of surface and slightly subsurface discontinuities in ferrous metals. It can be used in a powder blower or shaken from a bottle during magnetization, and blown off while current is still being applied. On material with a high magnetic retentivity, indications can still be formed after the current has been turned off.
Features & Benefits
Sharp, color-contrast indications on high reflective surfaces
Ready-to-use
Good particle buildup for quick detection
Highly refined for optimal particle shape and size combination
Minimal dust build-up
Does not require a black light or darkened inspection area
APPLICATION
Ideal Application: Castings, Dark surfaces, Detecting medium, large and course discontinuities, Extreme temperatures, Field testing, Forgings, In-service inspections, Large parts, Light, medium, dark surfaces, Rough/textured surfaces, Spot inspections, Weld testing
