54B045 - Walter Replacement Felt Tips for Stainless Steel ID Tester (5-Pack)

Keep Your ID Tester Running Smoothly

Every welder and fabricator knows the headache of mixed-up materials. Distinguishing between 304 and 316 stainless steel is impossible with the naked eye, but critical for the integrity of the final product. That is where your Walter Stainless Steel ID Tester comes in handy. To keep that tester working like new, you need the Walter 54B045 White Felt Tips. This 5-pack of replacement tips ensures you are never caught on a job site with a dried-out or ruined tester tip.

These felt tips are the direct replacement for the applicator on your Walter ID pen. When you are testing multiple pieces of stock or verifying scrap, the tip can pick up dirt, grease, or simply wear down from rubbing against rough metal surfaces. A worn tip might not dispense the testing fluid correctly, leading to false readings or no reading at all. With this convenient pack of five, you can swap out the old tip for a fresh one instantly, ensuring your test results are clear and accurate every time.

The white felt is designed to show the chemical reaction clearly. When the testing fluid reacts with Molybdenum in 316 stainless steel, the color change is immediate and distinct. A clean white tip ensures there is no interference from previous tests or accumulated grime. These tips are durable enough to handle repeated use on steel surfaces but soft enough to absorb and dispense the fluid effectively.

Don't let a small consumable part hold up a big project. Keeping a pack of 54B045 tips in your toolbox or shop cabinet is a smart move for any professional dealing with stainless steel. They are easy to install, affordable, and essential for maintaining the accuracy of your material identification tools. Whether you are verifying incoming shipments or checking installed piping, these replacement tips give you the confidence that your tools are telling you the truth.
