Magnaflux, a global leader in non-destructive testing (NDT) solutions, announces the expansion of its product offerings designed to meet the rigorous demands of the oil and gas industry. Trusted by Oil Country Tubular Goods (OCTG) manufacturers, oilfield and pipeline inspection companies, power generation firms, and refineries, Magnaflux’s NDT solutions are integral to ensuring the integrity and safety of critical infrastructure across both offshore and onshore operations.
Magnaflux’s NDT solutions, which are essential for the inspection of safety-critical components such as drill pipe, line pipe, casing, tubing, tanks, and welding, play a pivotal role in minimizing downtime, ensuring operational safety, and meeting stringent regulatory compliance standards. With a strong commitment to advancing inspection technologies, Magnaflux provides operators with reliable tools that reduce risk, improve efficiency, and safeguard the environment.
Innovative NDT Solutions for Field and Industrial Applications
Magnaflux’s latest product lineup includes state-of-the-art equipment designed to streamline and enhance the inspection process, offering both convenience and precision:
- Y-2 AC Electromagnetic Yoke: A lightweight, ergonomically designed yoke for magnetic particle testing, the Y-2 helps reduce operator fatigue while generating a strong AC magnetic field to detect surface indications. Built for the rugged demands of field inspection, it features a field-swappable cord and isolated trigger switch, ensuring ease of maintenance. The yoke also includes an optional super-bright white-light LED attachment for enhanced visibility during inspections.
- SKC-S Cleaner/Remover Aerosols: Approved for NDT use, the SKC-S aerosol is designed for pre-cleaning parts before inspection and for removing excess surface penetrant before developer application during liquid penetrant testing.
- SKD-S2 Developer Aerosols: Designed to expedite the inspection process, SKD-S2 is a fast-drying developer that promotes quicker indication formation and minimizes post-inspection cleaning. It is particularly effective in machine shops, weld testing, and field applications.
- 7HF Black Aerosol: This highly sensitive, oil-based magnetic particle aerosol is used for visible wet method magnetic particle testing. Ideal for field testing and spot inspections, it helps locate fine and medium discontinuities on finished parts, especially in large structures or areas where bulk processing is impractical.
- WCP-2 White Contrast Paint Aerosols: WCP-2 provides a high-contrast background to enhance visible indications during magnetic particle inspections. The white contrast paint improves the probability of detection and sensitivity, making it ideal for both dry and wet magnetic particle inspection methods.
Meeting Industry Standards for Excellence
Magnaflux’s NDT solutions comply with a range of critical industry standards, including:
- ASME BPVC
- ASTM E709
- ASTM E1444
- ASTM E3024
