Magnetic Field Meters

Magnaflux offers comprehensive magnetic field indicators and Gauss meters for measuring magnetic field strength and direction in non-destructive testing applications. The product line includes calibrated field meters (10 Gauss and 20 Gauss models), uncalibrated disposable indicators, and specialized Pie Gauges for determining magnetic field direction. These rugged, pocket-sized instruments are essential for magnetic particle inspection (MPI), measuring residual magnetism in ferrous parts after magnetization. ASME-compliant models gauge magnetic field strength and direction according to ASME BPVC Section V standards. Ideal for quality control professionals, NDT technicians, and inspection engineers requiring accurate magnetic field measurement in industrial testing environments.
