Le dispositif d'évaluation de propriétés de surface (1) selon la présente invention comprend un capteur magnétique (10) pour détecter les propriétés magnétiques de la surface d'un objet qui est inspecté et délivrer en sortie un signal de propriétés de surface, un moyen d'alimentation (20) pour fournir un courant alternatif à une fréquence prédéterminée au capteur magnétique (10); un moyen de détection de signal (21) pour extraire à partir d'un signal de détection magnétique un signal de propriétés de surface en réponse aux propriétés magnétiques de la surface d'un objet qui est inspecté; un moyen de calcul de propriétés de surface (22) pour calculer des propriétés de surface sur la base d'un signal de propriétés de surface; et un moyen formant mémoire (23) pour stocker la courbe d'étalonnage montrant la relation entre des signaux de propriétés de surface et des propriétés de surface et/ou des valeurs de référence obtenues à l'avance à l'aide d'un échantillon de référence dont les propriétés de surface sont déjà connues. Le capteur magnétique (10) comprend un noyau (11) ayant un corps magnétique, et un enroulement (12); une trajectoire magnétique fermée est formée par le capteur magnétique (10) et la surface de l'objet qui est inspecté.
