Which type crack can be detected by magnetic particle inspection using either circular or longitudinal magnetisation?

  • 45degrees.
  • longitudinal.
  • transverse.

Explanation from PART66Online

Each magnetisation direction best reveals defects lying across its flux: circular field finds longitudinal cracks, longitudinal field finds transverse cracks. A crack at 45 degrees presents a component across both fields, so it produces a usable indication under either method, whereas a purely longitudinal or transverse crack is reliably found by only one of them.
