When professionals specify 316 stainless steel and pay for it, how do you know you have 316 stainless steel? Mixing this desirable material with standard 304 can result in various problems. The trusted 1542C is the best kit to verify stainless steel 316. It's the 316 ID Kit, a rapid color spot test kit to identify alloy content. It can be used on tanks, pipes, welds, wire, castings, and more.

- Place a test paper on your metal
- Place a drop of solution A onto the paper
- Apply current to the moist spot using the Electro-Spot
- Follow with the addition of solution B
- A vibrant color develops, revealing the composition!
HOW IT WORKS:
A chemical spot test is a diagnostic test performed by the electro-spot method. Sensitive and interference-free chemical color tests detect the alloying components. A color develops as a result of a chemical reaction, and generally, the intensity of the color can be used to estimate the amount of alloying component present. The density of color reactions is correlated to nominal composition. This is usually sufficient for alloy identification, differentiation, and verification.
