NDT Services Magnetic Testing (MT)

Magnetic Particle Testing (MT) Services – Accurate, Reliable & Standards-Compliant NDT Solutions

We provide high-accuracy, fast, and standards-compliant Magnetic Particle Testing (MT) services designed to detect surface and near-surface defects in ferromagnetic materials. As part of our comprehensive Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) solutions, our MT inspection services help ensure structural integrity, safety, and compliance across a wide range of industries.

Our services are widely trusted in sectors such as oil & gas, construction, manufacturing, power generation, shipbuilding, offshore projects, and steel fabrication, where early defect detection is critical to maintaining operational reliability and preventing costly failures.

What is Magnetic Particle Testing (MT)?

Magnetic Particle Testing (MT), also known as Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI), is one of the most effective and widely used NDT methods for identifying discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials, including:

• Carbon steel

• Alloy steel

• Cast iron

The MT process involves magnetizing the test object and applying finely divided magnetic particles, either in dry powder or wet suspension form. When a defect such as a crack or discontinuity is present, it disrupts the magnetic field, causing a leakage field at that location. Magnetic particles are then attracted to this area, forming a visible indication that clearly highlights the defect.

This method is highly sensitive and ideal for detecting both visible and microscopic flaws that may not be detectable through visual inspection alone.

Types of Defects Detected by Magnetic Particle Testing

Our Magnetic Testing (MT) services are highly effective for identifying a wide range of defects, including:

• Surface cracks

• Near-surface (subsurface) cracks

• Lack of fusion in welds

• Slag inclusions

• Fatigue cracks caused by cyclic stress

• Grinding cracks and heat treatment defects

These defects, if left undetected, can lead to structural failure, safety hazards, and increased maintenance costs.
