ZL-60D
Level 2 Water Washable Fluorescent Penetrant
Developed for testing rough machined surfaces, ZL-60D fluorescentwater-removeable penetrant is ideal for finding indications in castings,
forgings, extrusions and rough surfaces.
This medium-sensitivity penetrant washes off parts quickly and easily,leaving less fluorescent background – even on rough surface – forclearer indications and better inspection reliability.
ZL-60D is one of the most versatile “work-horse” penetrants, customers
can use this one penetrant for a wide range of applications on a range of parts to find many different
types of defects, including cracks, seams, laps, cold shuts, laminations and porosity.
Broad specification compliance further increase this penetrants flexibility. ZL-60D has excellent alloy
compatibility and is safe to use on most engineering and aerospace materials, including aluminum, steel,nickel and titanium.
ZL-60D is listed on the QPL SAE AMS 2644 Qualified Product List and is approved for use by Pratt &Whitney.
BENEFITS
Improve indication detection••

Makes indications stand out more by easily
washing excess penetrant off with water
Reduces background fluorescence,even on rough surfaces

Maximize application versatility••

Ideal for an extensive variety of parttypes due to Level 2 sensitivity
Universal specification conformanceand fast, even surface wetting

Affordable performance••••

Maximize operator comfort and safety•••

Drives value at each step of the inspection
process
Quickly apply penetrant with high surface
wetting
Easily wash off with water
Use less penetrant over time because oflower drag-out and slower evaporation
Promotes better inspection quality byproviding the operator with a more
comfortable work environment
Reduces discomfort from strong odors
Exceeds all EHS requirements
