Met-L-Chek E-59A | Solvent Cleaner & Remover (1 Gallon)

High-Efficiency Surface Preparation and Penetrant Removal

Met-L-Chek E-59A is a specialized, non-halogenated solvent designed for the pre-cleaning of inspection surfaces and the removal of excess surface penetrant. Featuring a Medium Dry Rate, it provides the perfect balance between effective cleaning action and controlled evaporation, ensuring the inspection area is perfectly prepared without leaving behind residue that could interfere with defect indications.

Key Performance Features

• Medium Dry Rate: Unlike "Flash Dry" solvents that evaporate too quickly to dissolve heavy contaminants, the E-59A stays active long enough to break down oils, greases, and excess penetrant, then evaporates cleanly.

• Residue-Free Formula: Engineered to leave zero film or inorganic salts behind, which is critical for preventing "false indications" during the development phase.

• Material Compatible: Safe for use on a wide variety of metals including aluminum, magnesium, titanium, and high-nickel alloys. It is also generally safe for most industrial plastics and coatings (testing on a small area is recommended).

• Non-Halogenated & Low Sulfur: Fully compliant with the strict requirements of the nuclear and aerospace industries, preventing stress corrosion cracking on sensitive materials.

• Versatile Application: Primarily used in Method C (Solvent Removable) processes, but also serves as an excellent general-purpose degreaser for high-precision NDT workflows.
