  • SKC-S

    SKC-S

    NDT Cleaner & Remover

    SKC-S is an NDT-approved solvent cleaner/remover for pre-cleaning before non-destructive testing and for removing excess surface penetrant from an inspection area before applying developer during liquid penetrant testing.

    This non-halogenated solvent remover can be used on a wide range of substrates to remove oils, greases and other contaminants. SKC-S dries quickly without leaving a residue, and meets the low-residue requirements for NDT and aerospace penetrant testing.

  • SKD-S2

    SKD-S2

    Solvent Based Developer

    A bright white, non-aqueous developer, SKD-S2 creates an opaque white background for high-contrast penetrant testing and quickly draws penetrant out to create stronger, clearer indications for better inspection reliability and sensitivity.

  • SKL-4C

    SKL-4C

    Water-Based Visible/Fluorescent (Dual-Purpose) Penetrant

    Specially designed for chemically sensitive plastic parts, and for leak detection, SKL-4C is a red dye visible penetrant that is water based and water washable. As with most plastic parts, it is recommended that a trial application be used to confirm compatibility.

  • SKL-SP2

    SKL-SP2

    Solvent Removable Visible Dye Penetrant

    SKL-SP2 is a solvent removable visible red dye penetrant. SKL-SP2 locates surface-breaking discontinuities with a simple three-step process that is ideal for basic industrial nondestructive testing. SKL-SP2 features high-performance penetrating characteristics and produces clear vivid red indications.

  • SKL-WP2

    SKL-WP2

    Water Washable Visible Dye Penetrant

    Developed for large surface areas and rough surfaces where excess penetrant is difficult to remove with a solvent removable cleaner or emulsifier, SKL-WP2 is a water-removeable dye penetrant for Type 2 penetrant testing in visible white light.

  • ZA-1227

    ZA-1227

    Fluorescent Penetrant Testing Equipment System

    ZA-1633 systems are stand-alone fluorescent penetrant inspection systems for light volume inspection of small to medium size parts, including aerospace fasteners, automotive parts and surgical implant inspection.

  • ZA-1633

    ZA-1633

    Fluorescent Penetrant Testing Equipment System

    ZA-1633 systems are stand-alone fluorescent penetrant inspection systems for light volume inspection of small to medium size parts, including aerospace fasteners, automotive parts and surgical implant inspection.

  • ZE-4E

    ZE-4E

    Lipophilic Emulsifier

    A Method B lipophilic emulsifier, ZE-4E diffuses into the penetrant to clear the penetrant from the surface of the part being inspected. It is rinsed from the part by water, carrying penetrant off the part surface. Designed to be used with post-emulsifiable penetrants Level 2 ZL-2C, Level 3 ZL-27A or Level 4 ZL-37. Benefits include low volatility and a high flash point, so ZE-4E can be used in open immersion tanks.

    ZE-4E is listed on the QPL SAE AMS 2644 Qualified Product List.

  • ZL-150

    ZL-150

    Level 2 Water Washable Fluorescent Penetrant

    Specially designed to reduce the cost of quality inspections, ZL-150 fluorescent water washable penetrant is ideal for finding indications in rough cast parts in high-volume dip applications. Foundries and casting houses will find this penetrant particularly useful in reducing cost while maintaining strong Level 2 fluorescent penetrant performance in sensitivity and removability.

  • ZL-15B

    ZL-15B

    Level 1/2 Water Washable Fluorescent Penetrant

    ZL-15B water washable penetrant is a low-sensitivity penetrant that features excellent washability. It is used to find open surface flaws such as cracks and porosity in seams, laps, cold shuts, and laminations on castings, forgings, extrusions, and parts with rough surfaces.

  • ZL-19

    ZL-19

    Level 1 Water Washable Fluorescent Penetrant

    A water-removeable Level 1 penetrant, ZL-19 is designed for use on rough or unmachined surfaces such as castings and forgings to find larger discontinuities in non-safety critical components. It is ideal for inspecting automotive and general industrial components such as engine cylinder blocks, power train components, rocker arms, pistons, steering knuckles, etc.

  • ZL-27A

    ZL-27A

    Level 3 Post Emulsifiable Fluorescent Penetrant

    Post-emulsifiable ZL-27A is a Level 3, high-sensitivity Type 1 penetrant designed for inspections which require maximum process control and reliability, such as safety-critical aerospace testing. Since ZL-27A is not water soluble, there is minimal risk of this penetrant being removed from a fine or shallow defect through over-washing to provide the highest reliability of any penetrant inspection method.

  • ZL-2C

    ZL-2C

    Level 2 Post Emulsifiable Fluorescent Penetrant

    A medium sensitivity penetrant (Level 2), ZL-2C fluorescent post-emulsifiable penetrant is designed to be removed from the part surface by emulsifiers or solvent. With a UV-A light source, indications will appear as a bright green-yellow fluorescence. ZL-2C has a high flash point, and is designed to be used in open dip tanks.

    ZL-2C is listed on the QPL SAE AMS 2644 Qualified Product List and is approved for use by Pratt & Whitney.
