- It is trusted by industry leaders like Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Rolls Royce, Honeywell, Pratt & Whitney, Airbus, General Electric, and Northrup Grumman.
Instructions for Use:
- Application: Apply penetrant to clean, dry surfaces through spraying, flowing, brushing, or dipping.
- Dwell Time: The suggested dwell time is 10 minutes, with the flexibility to extend for tight cracks or critical parts.
- Removal: Use the appropriate washing method to remove excess penetrant.
- Drying: A re-circulating oven (not exceeding 160°F) is recommended for efficient drying.
- Developing: Evenly spray a light coating of D-100 onto the dry surface after agitating the suspension.
- Inspection: Conduct inspections under suitable light-intensity conditions.
Safety Considerations:
- D-100 is highly flammable, so use it in well-ventilated areas.
- Avoid prolonged inhalation of vapour and skin contact; do not ingest.
