Probes FGAB1.3-Fe
The FGAB1.3-Fe probe is a precision instrument designed to determine delta ferrite and alpha martensite content in austenitic and duplex steels. This non-destructive method ensures accurate evaluation of material properties that directly influence weld quality, strength, corrosion resistance, and susceptibility to cracking.
Ferrite measurement plays a vital role in industries where stainless steel reliability is critical, such as power generation, petrochemical, shipbuilding, and construction. The probe, when used with the FERITSCOPE® series instruments, provides consistent results even in small or curved areas, making it suitable for both laboratory and field applications.
Key Applications
- Measuring ferrite content in weld seams and austenitic platings
- Assessing alpha martensite content with FERITSCOPE® FMP30
- Quality control according to Basler Standard
- Estimating material performance under stress, vibration, or corrosion

Main Features
- Measuring range: 0.1 … 120 FN or 0.1 … 80 Fe%
- Accuracy: High trueness (≤ 0.15 FN) and repeatability (≤ 0.05 FN)
- Design: Small-diameter, spring-loaded probe with wear-resistant PVD-coated steel tip
- Compatibility: Works with FERITSCOPE® FMP30, DMP30 (via adapter), and FISCHERSCOPE® MMS® PC/PC2 systems
- Accessories: Prism adapter for pipes, placing ring for stable positioning, and optional calibration standards
Why It Matters
By ensuring precise ferrite and martensite evaluation, the FGAB1.3-Fe probe helps industries maintain material integrity, optimize welding processes, and prevent costly failures in demanding environments.
