Leak-Detecting Dye for Water Systems
Easy-to-see colors enable you to visually inspect for leaks without ultraviolet light.
One gallon of water occupies 0.1337 cubic ft. Calculate the number of gallons a tank holds by dividing the tank volume by 0.1337.
Fluorescent dye can be enhanced with a UV flashlight.
Tablets are easy to use for small volumes of water, such as toilets and septic systems. They dissolve in five minutes. Tablets that come in a packet include instructions for detecting a toilet leak.
Liquid is a good choice for larger volumes of water, such as sewers. It disperses faster than tablets and powder.
Powder is the best choice for the largest volumes of water, such as ponds, piping systems in power plants, and cooling towers.

Leak-Detecting Dye Kits for HVAC Systems
With bright-colored dye and a fully equipped kit, you have everything you need to spot leaks in your HVAC system. These kits come with the correct amount of dye required for your system's size. Inject the dye into your system and scan it with the UV light—the dye is fluorescent, so it’s easy to spot most leaks right away. For small leaks, let the dye circulate for 24 hours and then inspect it again. Use the dye cleaner before you fix a leak. If the repair isn’t sufficient, you’ll be able to spot more dye.
Kits with UV dye and sealant are formulated to seal hard-to-find leaks from the inside of your system. The dye and sealant formula is non-polymer and oil soluble, making it safe to stay in your system indefinitely. Reinforce seals from the outside for a permanent fix.
Kits that meet ANSI/ASHRAE adhere to standards for chemical stability.
Kits that meet SAE J2297 include dye that was originally made to detect leaks in automotive AC systems.

Plug-In Magnetic Particle Flaw-Detection Kits
Find faulty seams, welding defects, and other surface-level flaws in ferrous materials. These kits come with everything you need to start inspecting parts. Apply the powder to the surface you want to inspect. Then plug in the yoke and it creates a magnetic field that draws the powder to the imperfection, making it easy to spot. Built for rugged environments, the yoke has a sealed design that stands up to chemicals and other harsh conditions. It’s also half the weight of a standard yoke and fits comfortably in your hand, so there’s less fatigue if you use it for extended periods of time.
For Use On | Includes | Plug Type | Voltage | Specifications Met | Each | |
Cast Iron, Stainless Steel, Steel | One 1-lb. Bottle of Gray Powder, One 1-lb. Bottle of Red Powder | Three Prong | 120V AC | ASTM E1444, MIL-STD-2132, MIL-STD-271 | 000000 | 0000000 |
Battery-Powered Magnetic Particle Flaw-Detection Kits
Check for defects slightly beneath the surface of ferrous materials that you wouldn’t otherwise see. The yoke in these kits is powered by a battery, so it uses direct current to create a strong magnetic field that reaches just below the surface of your part. When you apply the powder, the powder will move towards any flaws, helping you identify tears, cracks, and other imperfections.
Ideal for fieldwork, these kits come with everything you need for on-the-go inspections. The yoke lasts up to eight hours on a single battery charge. Built for rugged environments, it has a sealed design that stands up to chemicals and other harsh conditions.

Plug-In Yokes for Magnetic-Particle Flaw Detection
Find welding defects and other flaws in magnetic materials. These yokes create a magnetic field that draws magnetic powder (not included) to imperfections, making them easy to spot. All operate on AC power, which creates a small magnetic field ideal for detecting flaws along the surface of materials. Powered by standard electrical outlets, these yokes have a reliable and consistent power source.
6-lb. yokes are lightweight and fit comfortably in your hand to reduce fatigue over extended use. Attach an LED light to your yoke to brightly illuminate inspection areas. They’re powered by the yoke’s magnetic field, so they don’t require batteries.
Yokes with an AC/DC switch can also operate on DC power. DC power generates a deeper magnetic field than AC power to find defects underneath surfaces, such as internal tears and cracks.
Calibrate your yoke before each use with a test weight to ensure accurate test results.

Surface Passivation Test Kits
Test stainless steel to see if it needs to be passivated or was properly passivated. These tests detect the presence of iron from fabrication processes, which can limit stainless steel's inherent ability to resist corrosion. Often used in aerospace, pharmaceutical, and medical device industries, they meet ASTM, aerospace, and military passivation standards.
To perform a test, squeeze the dropper to apply the solution to the surface of a part. Keep the surface wet for six minutes before rinsing and drying it off. Do not scrub the solution off. If iron is detected, the surface will appear copper in color. If no copper coloring appears, the surface is clear of contaminants and is properly passivated. These bottles include enough solution to perform hundreds of spot tests.
This test is often used on all 200 and 300 series stainless steels and some 400 series stainless steel alloys. However, it’s not recommended to use this solution on 400 series stainless steel with less than 16% chromium. These stainless steel alloys will typically cause a false failure of the test.

Torque Sensors
Measure and record manually applied torque. These sensors convert torque into an electrical signal that your computer or programmable logic controller (PLC) can read.
Sensors with a PC connection kit include software that plots and analyzes measurements, so you can track highs, lows, and averages over time. If measurements fall outside a certain range, the software can also set off alarms or send you an email. Export your data to Excel, MATLAB, LabVIEW, and other programs for analysis. Connect to a computer or tablet with the included USB cord. Sensors with a wireless PC connection kit also have a built-in transmitter that uses Wi-Fi to send signals to a USB receiver plugged into your PC.
Sensors with a PLC connection kit send signals to a PLC to trigger actions in your system, such as checking for proper fastening between joints or connections. They can also trigger robotic arms and other machinery to apply a precise amount of force.
Drive adapters let you connect these sensors to the drive of a torque wrench.
Use base plates to mount these sensors to a flat surface for testing.
