On the ANSI webstore, there are hundreds of standards for particle testing. Many of these standards deal with paints and powders as one would expect. But a large group of standards pertain to magnetic particles often for characterizing steel tubes, welds or surface imperfections. The table below shows the standards for magnetic particle testing. This list is current as of November 3, 2015 and if some standards are revised or new ones created, you can find them on the ANSI webstore.
