A Weibull probability plot displays failure or lifetime data on Weibull probability paper (logarithmic x-axis for time/cycles, linearized Weibull CDF on y-axis) with a fitted straight line. It is the standard tool in reliability engineering for estimating Weibull distribution parameters (shape and scale), assessing whether data follow a Weibull distribution, and extrapolating failure probabilities. The slope of the fitted line gives the shape parameter (beta), while the characteristic life (eta) is read at the 63.2% failure probability crossing.
