A new type of experiment is performed using a closed magnetic circuit configuration in order to study the influence of the magnetic field on pitting corrosion in low carbon pipeline steel. The statistical assessment of the pitting corrosion data shows that the magnetic field in the material under test reduces the extreme pit depths and also the average depth of the pit population. It is proposed that reduction in pit depth under the influence of remanent magnetization can be explained based on the behavior of the paramagnetic corrosion products under the influence of the magnetic field gradient produced inside pits.
