Circle Systems Sir-Chem Dry Powder 66 (Red)* is a high-quality, visible dry magnetic particle powder specifically designed for dry method magnetic particle inspection (MPI). This 5 kg jar contains a yellow powder (note: product name indicates red, but manufacturer data specifies yellow) that provides excellent contrast against metallic backgrounds, making surface and near-surface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials readily visible under normal lighting conditions.
Sir-Chem* 66 is known for its fine particle size and high magnetic permeability, resulting in the formation of clear and well-defined indications of flaws such as cracks, seams, laps, and inclusions. Its free-flowing nature ensures even application using various dry powder application techniques, including dusting bulbs, shaker cans, or powder blowers. This product is widely used in industries such as welding, forging, casting, and general metal fabrication where a quick and easy dry method MPI is preferred for detecting surface defects.
