OVERVIEW

Professional Grade NDT Inspection with Magnaflux Spotcheck SKL-WP2

The Magnaflux Spotcheck® SKL-WP2 is a premium water-washable visible dye penetrant designed for rigorous industrial Non-Destructive Testing (NDT). Supplied in a convenient case of 12 aerosol cans, this product is engineered to meet the demanding requirements of aerospace, automotive, and heavy manufacturing sectors. As a Type 2 penetrant, it utilizes a vivid red dye to identify surface-breaking discontinuities such as cracks, laps, porosity, and seams in a wide variety of materials. Its formulation is specifically balanced to provide outstanding penetrating characteristics while remaining easy to remove, ensuring that inspections are both accurate and efficient.

One of the primary advantages of SKL-WP2 is its water-washable nature. Unlike solvent-removable penetrants that require specific cleaners and careful wiping, SKL-WP2 can be rinsed directly from the part surface using a water spray. This feature is particularly beneficial when inspecting large surface areas, rough castings, or complex geometries where excess penetrant might otherwise be trapped. By eliminating the need for intermediate solvent removers or emulsifiers, facilities can significantly reduce their chemical consumption and waste disposal costs, streamlining the entire inspection workflow.

This penetrant is fully compliant with major industry standards, including QPL SAE AMS 2644, ASTM E1417, ASME BPVC, and ISO 3452. This ensures that it meets the strict sensitivity and reliability criteria required for critical component inspections. Whether you are testing pressure vessels, tubular goods, or structural welds, SKL-WP2 delivers consistent performance. The low-odor formula also improves the working environment for inspectors who use the product daily. It is compatible with both ferrous and non-ferrous metals, making it a versatile addition to any quality control department's inventory.

Key Industrial Benefits:

  • High Contrast: The bright red/violet color creates sharp indications against the background, minimizing the risk of missed defects.
  • Cost Efficiency: Water washability reduces the need for additional solvent cleaners, lowering the cost per part inspected.
  • Versatility: Effective on rough surfaces like sand castings as well as machined forgings.
  • Compliance: Certified to meet global NDT specifications for peace of mind in regulated industries.

FAQ

Yes, after applying the penetrant and washing off the excess, you must apply a developer (like Spotcheck SKD-S2) to draw the penetrant out of the cracks and make them visible.

Yes, SKL-WP2 is designed to be easily removed with water, which is ideal for rough surfaces and large parts where wiping is difficult.

It is suitable for a wide variety of metals, including ferrous (steel, iron) and non-ferrous (aluminum, copper) alloys, as well as some ceramics.

Dwell time depends on the material and temperature, but generally ranges from 10 to 30 minutes to allow the penetrant to fully enter discontinuities.

Yes, SKL-WP2 meets major standards including AMS 2644, ASTM E1417, ASME BPVC, and ISO 3452.

Yes, the aerosol propellant and contents are flammable. Keep away from open flames, sparks, and heat sources during use.

Yes, it is effective for leak detection in tanks, pipes, and pressure vessels.

Please refer to the specific batch information and the Shelf Life Statement provided by Magnaflux, but generally, aerosols should be stored properly to maintain effectiveness.
