#1 Gray provides strong contrast on most metal surfaces during dry method mag particle testing in visible light. It is ready-to-use for visible light flaw detection of surface and slightly subsurface discontinuities in ferrous metals. It can be used in a powder blower or shaken from a bottle during magnetization, and blown off while current is still being applied. On material with a high magnetic retentivity, indications can still be formed after the current has been turned off.
Benefits
- Sharp, color-contrast indications on high reflective surfaces
- Ready-to-use formulation for immediate application
- Excellent particle buildup for rapid flaw detection
- Highly refined for optimal particle shape and size
- Minimal dust build-up for cleaner operation
- No need for a black light or darkened inspection area
Experience the efficiency and reliability of this non-fluorescent magnetic particle solution, perfect for professionals seeking to ensure quality and safety in metal inspections. With its user-friendly application and effective flaw detection capabilities, it stands out as a top choice for industrial and manufacturing environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What surfaces work best with this product?
A: #1 Gray works best on ferrous metal surfaces where strong contrast is needed for visible light inspection.
Q: Does this require special equipment?
A: Basic magnetic particle testing equipment is required, including a magnetizing device. The particles can be applied using a powder blower or shaken from a bottle.
Q: How does this compare to fluorescent particles?
A: Unlike fluorescent particles that require UV light, #1 Gray particles are visible in normal lighting conditions, making them more convenient for field inspections.
