I am using hilti cast in sleeves and the penetrants are undersized for the sleeve. 2" penetrant in a 4"&6" sleeve, 4" penetrant in a 6" sleeve. is this acceptable, if not, what is the fix?

Hello,
What type of penetrant do you have - metallic or non-metallic wise? We have a few systems you can try to use- F-A-2103, F-A-1066, and F-A-1023. If none of them will work for your application, please advise what type of penetrant do you have and if an engineering judgment is possible, we can process one for you if you would like one.

Best regards,

Submit your parameters to Engerineering. Might qualify under a System or EJ. Might need to do a F-A-2025
