NM01FP97AM55
Met-L-Chek FP-97A is a high-sensitivity, post-emulsifiable (PE) fluorescent penetrant designed for the detection of surface-breaking flaws in a wide range of non-porous materials. This bulk penetrant, supplied in a 55-gallon (208 liters) drum, is formulated to meet the demanding requirements of high-volume industrial applications, ensuring reliable and accurate flaw detection.
This Level 4 penetrant offers exceptional sensitivity, capable of revealing extremely fine cracks, porosity, and other surface discontinuities that would otherwise remain undetected. It is compatible with multiple penetrant inspection methods, including Method B (Lipophilic Emulsification), Method C (Hydrophilic Emulsification), and Method D (Solvent Removable), providing flexibility to adapt to specific inspection needs and equipment.
The FP-97A is formulated to provide a bright, intense fluorescence under ultraviolet (UV-A) light, ensuring clear and unambiguous flaw indications. Its robust formulation ensures stable performance across a range of operating temperatures and conditions, making it suitable for use in diverse industrial environments.
Manufactured by Met-L-Chek, a trusted leader in NDT materials, the FP-97A penetrant is produced to stringent quality control standards, guaranteeing consistent performance and reliability. This 55-gallon drum is ideal for large-scale operations and applications requiring frequent penetrant inspections in high-throughput environments.
