Carrier II
NDT-Approved Petroleum Base Suspension Vehicle
Carrier II is a high-purity NDT-approved suspension vehicle developed specifically for wet method magnetic particle testing. This petroleum distillate carrier oil provides excellent particle mobility, good suspension stability and enhanced corrosion protection for reliable, spec-compliant mag particle inspections.
Carrier II has virtually no odour for improved operator comfort, and contains special additives to minimise background fluorescence when using fluorescent materials.
- Provides excellent particle mobility
- Good dispersion stability
- Protects parts and equipment against corrosion
- Provides superior wetting and surface coverage
- Low maintenance oil-based suspension
- Very low toxicity
- High flash point
- Low volatility
- Odourless
- Wide temperature stability
Faster, more reliable inspections
- Increases inspection speed and reliability by quickly wetting the entire test surface
- Helps 14A particles to move at top speed to discontinuities
Decreases maintenance
- Magnetic particle baths last longer due to slow evaporation, and are less susceptible to contamination from bacteria or fungus
- Protects magnetic particles like 14A from wear and tear and keeps them evenly dispersed throughout the bath
Improves operator comfort
Made with a highly refined oil to reduce skin irritations and eliminate strong odors for a nicer work environment
More inspection flexibility
- Can be used for virtually all magnetic particle inspections with conformance to all major international magnetic particle testing specifications
- Prevents corrosion of most alloys and eliminates post-inspection processing for corrosion protection
Safer to use
- Reduces EHS concerns with high flash point and low toxicity
- Carrier II can go anywhere in an inspection line without worrying about fire or biological hazards
Increases equipment life-span
Protects magnetic particle equipment from internal rust and corrosion to keep expensive machines running longer with less downtime
