Overview

About the LK 35

LK 35 is a ready-to-use hydrocarbons-based black magnetic particle powder suspension for visible wet method magnetic particle testing. The magnetic particles’ small size allows the use of this product on a wide range of surfaces, while ensuring excellent sensitivity. If applied together with the Vecoplast contrast paint, LK 35 guarantees an excellent color contrast even on dark surfaces, highlighting even the smallest discontinuities. LK 35 is a product with low sulfur and halogen content, in compliance with applicable standards. Intended NDT method: visible magnetic particle inspection, wet method. CGM states compliance with EN ISO 9934-2, ASME V Art. 7, ASTM E709, ASTM E1444, AMS 3041, AMS 3043, AMS 2641, PMUC (certificate of compliance upon request). Published packaging: 10 L cans, 400 ml spray, 500 ml spray.
