Yoke (Magnetic Particle Testing)
A portable electromagnet device used for magnetic particle testing, shaped like an inverted U. The yoke magnetizes the test area between its two poles. Yokes are convenient for field inspection as they are portable and require only 110V power. Yoke lift-off capability determines magnetization quality. Different yoke designs accommodate various component geometries and space constraints.

Equipment Selection and Use
Proper selection and maintenance of yoke (magnetic particle testing) is critical for successful NDT inspections. Equipment must be calibrated and verified per applicable standards.
Maintenance and Verification
Regular maintenance and calibration verification ensure reliable equipment performance. Equipment that falls out of calibration can produce unreliable results.
Best Practices
- Always follow applicable NDT standards and procedures
- Use properly calibrated and maintained equipment
- Ensure personnel are properly trained and certified
- Document inspection procedures and results completely
- Keep current with industry standards and best practices
