Abstract. In improving the quality of a product, it is important to use actions which allow for identifying problems and their root, which is possible by using adequate techniques. In industrial practice the non-destructive tests are used, because they are effective in the product quality assessment. By their use, it is possible to identify the incompatibility of a product, but not the root of its occurrence. Therefore, it is effective to integrate the non-destructive test with other methods that allow for it. The aim of the study was to identify the root of linear indications detected by the FPI method on a bearing housing using the sequence of quality management techniques. An enterprise localized in the Podkarpacie had a problem with not identified root of incompatibility. In the enterprise, linear indications were often identified on different types of products, and the root of this problem was not known. To solve the problem and identify the root of linear indications, a sequence of selected techniques was used. These methods included the fluorescent method inspection (FPI), Ishikawa diagram and 5Why method. A bearing housing made from 410 steel, on which linear indications were often identified was the subject of the research. By using the Ishikawa diagram, the potential and main causes were identified (production errors and bad storage). By the 5Why method the root of the linear indications was identified – it was faulty material from the supplier. It was shown that integrating the sequence of quality management techniques with the FPI method is effective to identify the root causes of a product. These sequences can be used to quality analyze other types of products and also to identify the root of other types of incompatibilities.
