Description
Test ink pens pink set (arcotest® Jumbo) are ready-to-use surface-tension test pens for assessing wettability on plastics, polymer films and coated substrates. The kit comprises eight Jumbo pens of 17 ml each in pink, covering the discrete levels 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42 and 44 mN/m so operators can step through surface-energy values before printing, bonding, laminating or coating. A short stroke of ink is applied and wetting behaviour is observed: continuous film formation indicates that the surface meets or exceeds the pen value, while beading shows a lower energy level. This practical approach supports routine process control in packaging, converting and industrial finishing without preparing liquid test inks. Available from manufacturer Arcotest, the set keeps the full value series together for laboratory and production-floor checks. The compact multi-pen format aids rapid, repeatable dyne-level screening and helps identify the critical threshold for reliable adhesion and coating performance with minimal handling effort in daily quality workflows.
This article belongs on Test inks & surface tension, in Test kits & water analysis.

Questions about Test Ink Pens arcotest® Jumbo, pink, Set à 8 x 17 ml, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42
What is this article?
Test Ink Pens arcotest® Jumbo, pink, Set à 8 x 17 ml, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Arcotest for laboratory use. It sits in Test inks & surface tension, inside Test kits & water analysis, in Lab chemicals.
A test ink checks the surface energy of a solid: the ink either wets the surface or crawls back. The stated dyne value is the product. It is a surface-treatment check, used on plastics and films, not an assay of a liquid concentration.
A test kit turns a chemical question into a colour, a titre or a reading on a strip, so the operator does not have to assemble the method from separate reagents. A cuvette test is a ready optical cell. A strip is a field reading. The range printed on the kit is the range where the answer means something. Outside it, the kit is silent or wrong. The substances inside are on PubChem. Water measurement traces to NIST.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Test kits & water analysis. The sub-category is Test inks & surface tension. The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are Cuvette tests (Nanocolor), Colorimetric test kits and Test strips & indicator papers.
What should I check before I order?
The technical information on this page is the manufacturer's sheet. Read that, not a rewritten specification.
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
