Met-L-Chek E-57 is a high-performance, lipophilic emulsifier specifically designed for use in Type 1 (fluorescent) penetrant inspection (FPI) processes. Supplied in a large 55-gallon (208 liter) drum, E-57 provides an economical and high-volume solution for extensive FPI operations requiring a controlled water-wash removal of excess surface penetrant.  

As a lipophilic emulsifier, E-57 is applied after the penetrant dwell time. Its oil-loving properties cause it to interact with the oily fluorescent penetrant on the surface of the part, rendering it water-washable. This crucial step ensures that the penetrant is effectively removed from the surface without washing away the penetrant that has seeped into surface-breaking discontinuities. The controlled emulsification action of E-57 is vital for achieving bright, clear, and easily interpretable indications of flaws with minimal background fluorescence.  

The large 55-gallon drum is ideal for facilities with high usage rates, minimizing the need for frequent reordering and reducing overall operational costs in demanding FPI environments.
