OVERVIEW

Verify Your Stainless Steel Finish with Confidence

As a professional welder or fabricator, you know that making the weld look good is only half the battle; ensuring it holds up against rust and corrosion is where the real value lies. The Walter 54-B-044 Blotter Paper is the essential refill pack for your SURFOX Passivation Tester, giving you the ability to prove the quality of your work. After cleaning your stainless steel welds with a Surfox system, it is crucial to verify that the passive layer has fully reformed. These blotter strips make that verification process quick, easy, and undeniable.

Using the blotter paper is straightforward and fits seamlessly into your finishing workflow. Simply place a strip on the metal surface, apply a drop of the test electrolyte, and press the probe down. The paper absorbs the fluid instantly, creating the perfect conductive bridge needed for the tester to give you a "Pass" or "Fail" result. Without this specific paper, the solution might run or not make proper contact, leading to guessing games. With the 54-B-044, you get a clear answer every time, allowing you to ship your parts knowing they are fully protected.

This package includes 100 strips, so you can keep your shop stocked and ready for inspection at any time. Because they are disposable, you never have to worry about old residue messing up a new test. Just grab a fresh strip for each spot you check. It’s a low-cost way to add high-value certification to your projects, preventing costly callbacks and warranty issues. Keep your passivation tester running right with the genuine paper designed to work with it.

FAQ

It is used to hold the electrolyte solution during passivation testing with the Walter SURFOX Passivation Tester, creating a conductive medium between the probe and the metal.

The package contains 100 individual blotter paper strips.

No, the strips are designed for single use only. Reusing them can cause cross-contamination and lead to inaccurate test results.

It is specifically designed for the Walter SURFOX Passivation Tester, though it may work with other similar electrochemical testing devices requiring absorbent media.

Passivation testing verifies that the protective chromium oxide layer has formed on stainless steel, which is critical for preventing corrosion and rust.

No, the paper is dry. You must apply the appropriate test electrolyte solution to the paper at the time of testing.

Regular paper may not have the correct absorbency, thickness, or purity, which can lead to inconsistent conductivity and false readings on the tester.

No, this is for the *Passivation Tester* accessory, not the cleaning machine itself. It is for checking the work after cleaning.
