This paper introduces non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques centered on measuring magnetic properties, offering insight into evaluating structural steels throughout aircraft production and service life. It highlights the method’s utility in quality control of steel components, particularly in detecting variations in microstructure affecting mechanical properties. The NDT method correlates material structural state with magnetic properties, utilizing parameters such as coercive force, remanence, and hysteresis loop area. Developed instruments, like the MA-05 Magnetic Analyzer and KRM-Ts coercive force meter, enable precise measurements in both closed and open magnetic circuits. Applications range from assessing heat treatment quality to monitoring materials degradation in challenging conditions. A set of 12 gas containers that have been in service in aircraft for more than 40 years are tested as a case study, demonstrating the method's efficacy in evaluating damage accumulation. Future prospects include other potential applications in testing aircraft landing gear components.
