Calibrated-Dial Magnetic Field Indicators with Certificate of Calibration


These indicators come with a calibration certificate traceable to NIST that states they've passed a test for accuracy. All are calibrated at 72° F. In addition to measuring the strength of a magnetic field in gauss, they also measure the direction of a magnetic field in positive/negative. To take a measurement, place the lower edge of the indicator near or against your tools and parts.

Digital Electromagnetic Field Meters

Measure the strength of magnetic fields, electric fields, and radio frequencies at the same time. To detect emissions, just point these meters at the electrical equipment you want to test, such as a cable. When they detect high levels that could damage sensitive equipment, an alert appears in red and an audible alarm sounds. Their color LCD display shows readings, bar graphs, and trending graphs.
These meters store up to 20 radio frequency readings. Send readings to your PC using a USB cable (not included).

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.

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 |
Particles for Magnetic-Particle Flaw Detection







Reveal imperfections both at and slightly below the surface of your metal part, unlike other flaw detection methods. Use these particles with a magnetic yoke to check for faulty seams, welding defects, and fatigue cracks to make sure metal parts will be safe under high stress. The yoke creates a magnetic field that draws the particles towards flaws, making them easy to spot. To prevent issues with other inspections down the line, make sure to fully demagnetize your part to remove all the particles.
Powder particles withstand higher temperatures than spray particles and are quick to use. They don’t need to dry, which means you can start testing immediately. Shake them out from a bottle or use a powder blower to apply them to your part. You can blow excess particles off even if your part is still magnetized. They come in different colors, so choose what will contrast best with your metal surface.
When testing round or hard-to-reach material, it’s easier to apply an even layer of spray particles than powder. They’re smaller than powder particles, so they’re good for detecting finer surface flaws and imperfections. Particles with a 360° sprayer won’t sputter or spatter even when the aerosol can is upside down, so you can coat parts evenly without straining your wrist. Water-based spray particles are easier to clean up than oil-based spray particles. Black spray particles are often used with white contrast paint to make flaws more visible.
Ultraviolet spray particles require a UV light, but stand out more than natural light particles, so you spend less time examining each part. For the best contrast, use these particles in dim lighting.

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.

Contrast Paint for Magnetic-Particle Flaw Detection

Create a high-contrast background for magnetic particles to make flaws easier to spot during inspections. This opaque white paint reduces glare, so you can see where particles are clustered around imperfections. No need for brushes—it comes in an aerosol can that’s easy to use during field testing and spot inspections. Even when the can is upside down, the 360° sprayer won’t sputter or spatter, so you can coat parts evenly without straining your wrist. To speed up inspections, this paint dries quickly, leaving a clean coat that won’t bubble or flake. It works with both wet and dry magnetic particles.

Motion-Measuring Modules for Development Boards

Measure your device's acceleration, rotation, or orientation. These modules gather data over time and track movement, which can help improve performance, debug issues, and calibrate your components. Solder them onto a development board. To connect them to your device, solder on a wire or header. For a solderless connection, use a Qwiic cord (not included).
An accelerometer measures the rate at which your device is speeding up or slowing down. A gyroscope measures how fast your device is rotating. A magnetometer measures your device's orientation.
