Magnetic Particle Testing

Magnetic Particle Testing (MT) is a highly effective non-destructive testing (NDT) method for detecting surface and near-surface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials such as carbon steel, iron, nickel, and select alloys. This process involves inducing a magnetic field on a component and applying dry or wet magnetic particles. If a flux leakage occurs due to a defect, the particles visibly accumulate, allowing our experts to evaluate the indication in accordance with industry codes, standards, and client specifications.
 
Comprehensive MT Solutions
 
We provide MT for a wide range of applications, including welds, piping, shafts, and structural components. Our advanced inspection techniques include:

• Dry Powder Inspection – Multiple color options for enhanced contrast
• Wet Non-Fluorescent Inspection
• Wet Fluorescent Inspection

MT is an essential tool for identifying various types of defects, such as:

• Stress corrosion cracking
• Fatigue cracks
• Corrosion-related flaws
• Surface and near-surface discontinuities

Key Benefits of MT

✔ Cost-effective – Provides reliable results at a lower cost than other methods
✔ Quick inspection – Fast testing process with minimal downtime
✔ Portable – Ideal for field applications with mobile units
✔ Reliable defect detection – Highly effective in identifying critical flaws
