FAQ's of CRC CRICK 120:
Q: How do you use CRC CRICK 120 for surface crack detection?
A: To use CRC CRICK 120, ensure the metal surface is clean and dry. Shake the can well and spray the product evenly onto the inspection area. Allow the penetrant to dwell as specified in the testing procedure before wiping away excess and applying a developer if necessary.
Q: What surfaces and materials is CRC CRICK 120 compatible with?
A: CRC CRICK 120 is suitable for both ferrous and non-ferrous metals, making it ideal for a range of industrial components. Its minimal residue feature also ensures easy removal from various metal surfaces after the inspection.
Q: When should CRC CRICK 120 be applied in the inspection process?
A: Apply CRICK 120 during the penetrant phase of nondestructive testing (NDT), following initial cleaning and before developing. It is designed for detecting surface cracks and flaws to ensure the reliability of metal parts.
Q: Where should CRC CRICK 120 be stored for best results?
A: For optimal preservation, store CRC CRICK 120 in a cool, dry area, away from direct sunlight, and ensure the temperature stays below 50C. Proper storage maintains its shelf life of 24 months from the manufacturing date.
Q: What is the benefit of using a red visible dye in CRC CRICK 120?
A: The red visible dye enhances visibility of cracks and defects on metal surfaces, improving detection accuracy. This feature aids inspectors in quickly identifying flaws that could compromise safety or performance.
Q: Is cleaning recommended after using CRC CRICK 120?
A: Yes, a suitable cleaner should be used after detection to remove any remaining penetrant residue from the tested surface. This ensures cleanliness and prevents interference with subsequent operations or applications.
