Circle Systems Mi-Glow® 800 - Fluorescent Yellow-Green Magnetic Particle Powder (500 Gram Jar)
The Circle Systems Mi-Glow® 800 is a high-sensitivity fluorescent yellow-green magnetic particle powder concentrate, meticulously engineered for the wet method of Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI). As a core component in the NDT process for ferrous materials, Mi-Glow® 800 is mixed with a suitable carrier fluid (water or oil-based) to form a suspension, enabling inspectors to reliably locate very fine surface and shallow sub-surface discontinuities under ultraviolet (UV-A) light.
Key Features & Benefits:
High Sensitivity Fluorescent Particles: Mi-Glow® 800 is renowned for its exceptional sensitivity, designed to detect extremely fine and tight discontinuities such as fatigue cracks, grinding cracks, inclusions, and seams. Its brilliant yellow-green fluorescence provides high contrast against the test surface under UV-A light, ensuring clear and easy identification of indications.
Wet Method Application: Supplied as a fine powder, it is intended to be suspended in a liquid carrier (either water with wetting agents/corrosion inhibitors, or a high-flash naphtha-based oil) to form a stable and uniform suspension. This method allows for efficient coverage of complex geometries and provides excellent particle mobility.
Optimized Particle Size Distribution: Contains a carefully controlled blend of magnetic particles with an optimal size distribution, ensuring high mobility and strong retention at leakages of magnetic flux fields, maximizing defect detection.
Versatile Material Compatibility: Suitable for inspecting a wide range of ferromagnetic materials, including various steels, cast irons, and their alloys.
Consistent Performance: Manufactured by Circle Systems, a trusted leader in magnetic particle inspection products, ensuring consistent quality, batch-to-batch uniformity, and reliable performance in critical NDT applications.
Economical Concentrated Form: The powdered concentrate allows users to mix the desired concentration of magnetic particles for their specific application, offering cost-effectiveness and flexibility.
Industry Compliance: Meets or exceeds stringent industry specifications for magnetic particle inspection, including:
ASTM E1444
ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section V
MIL-STD-2132D
AMS 3044 (for wet method fluorescent magnetic particles)
