OVERVIEW

Spot Weld Defects Quickly and Easily

When you need to know if your weld is solid, Cantesco D101-A Developer is the tool you reach for. This 16 oz aerosol spray is the final step in the dye penetrant inspection process, commonly known as a "crack check." After cleaning your part and applying the red penetrant, simply spray on this developer to reveal the truth about your weld. It dries almost instantly into a chalky white powder that pulls the red dye out of any hidden cracks or pinholes.

The bright white background created by D101-A makes red indications pop, so you don't have to squint or guess. Whether you are checking a critical structural weld, an engine block, or a pipe fitting, this developer gives you the confidence that your work is defect-free. It is designed to be easy to apply, with a spray nozzle that delivers a fine mist for an even coat, preventing runs or masking of indications.

Don't leave quality to chance. Keep a can of Cantesco D101-A in your toolbox for those times when visual inspection alone isn't enough. It's perfect for verifying repairs, checking root passes, or final inspection of critical joints. Fast-acting and reliable, it helps you catch issues before they become expensive failures.
