Re: Magna flux tool
Probably a very old unit, that uses permanent magnets instead of electricity to generate the needed magnetic field. Would likely work if you had the appropriate ferrous powder to "dust" the area being tested. The link below is for a supplier of mag particle test equipment.

Re: Magna flux tool
I don't have a clue as to the origins of the tester in your picture. But if you would like to build your own tester its simple to do. The machine shop I frequent has a home made tester it was built using the magnets form a pair of old speakers. No electricity needed it works extremely well.

Re: Magna flux tool
I am quite sure a good/strong horse shoe shaped magnet will work with iron powder......should show all surface cracks.
