Met-L-Chek — MPI-86R Red Dry Method Magnetic Particles (11 lb / 5 kg)
Dry Powder for Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) SKU: 29185-0011Overview
Met-L-Chek MPI-86R is a high-performance red dry method magnetic particle powder designed for the detection of surface and near-surface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials. Formulated for dry particle inspection, MPI-86R delivers strong, high-contrast indications under visible light, enhancing defect visibility in a wide range of inspection conditions.
The red color provides excellent contrast, particularly on light or metallic surfaces, allowing inspectors to easily identify cracks, seams, laps, and other discontinuities. Its optimized particle size and magnetic sensitivity ensure reliable response to magnetic leakage fields, supporting accurate and consistent inspection results.
Supplied in an 11 lb (5 kg) container, MPI-86R is ideal for field applications and industrial environments such as oil & gas, fabrication, and heavy manufacturing where dry method inspection is preferred.
