New red alert

Spectroline has worked closely with a number of household names in the automotive and industrial markets to develop a red dye for leak detection purposes. This special formulation comes in a range of eight products offering solutions and colours for a variety of different hydraulic and water-based situations. It is available through Advanced Engineering.

Sales director Vern Klein, says: "We can offer bespoke combinations and fault-finding regimes for all manner of systems, engines and manufacturing plants. For example, an engine might have lubricant, coolant and fuel, each dyed a different colour, enabling an engineer to spot the leak and identify its source. UV leak detection is easy to use and the dyes are inert."
