OVERVIEW

Reliable Crack Detection for Professional Welders

Ensure the integrity of your welds with Magnaflux ZP-9F Developer. This essential inspection chemical is the final step in the dye penetrant testing process, commonly known as the "crack check." After applying your penetrant and removing the excess, a light coat of ZP-9F dries instantly to form a bright white layer. This white background acts like a blotter, pulling the red dye out of any cracks, pores, or pinholes, making them stand out vividly for easy identification.

Welders and fabricators rely on ZP-9F because it is fast, effective, and easy to use. Unlike slower-drying water-based developers, this solvent-based formula flashes off in seconds, allowing you to inspect parts immediately. It is perfect for checking root passes, final weld layers, and heat-affected zones for surface defects that could compromise structural integrity.

Easy to Use in the Shop or Field

Whether you are working on a pipeline in the field or a bench in the shop, ZP-9F is designed for portability and convenience. The spray application ensures a thin, even coat that doesn't run or pool, which is critical for accurate readings. It works effectively on all common welding materials, including steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.

FAQ

ZP-9F acts as a blotting agent that draws penetrant out of surface-breaking flaws and creates a white background to increase the visibility of the indication.

It is compatible with most Magnaflux color-contrast (red) and fluorescent penetrants, making it a versatile choice for various inspection methods.

Because it is solvent-based, ZP-9F dries very rapidly, typically within seconds of application, depending on ambient conditions.

Yes, ZP-9F is low in sulfur and halogens, making it safe for use on stainless steel, titanium, and other sensitive alloys.

It should be applied by spraying to ensure a thin, uniform coating. Avoid applying too heavily, as a thick coat can mask fine indications.

Yes, Magnaflux ZP-9F meets ASTM E1417, ASTM E165, and AMS 2644 standards for non-destructive testing.

Yes, the part must be cleaned, penetrant applied, and excess penetrant removed before applying the developer.

Yes, as a solvent-based developer, it is flammable and should be kept away from open flames and sparks during use.
