The Dakota NDT Standard Shear Wave Transducer (SS) is a high-resolution ultrasonic transducer featuring a 0.750 x 0.750 inch (3/4" x 3/4") element and a center frequency of 5 MHz. Designed for a wide range of general angle beam inspections where enhanced resolution is critical, this transducer is typically employed with angle beam wedges (available separately) to introduce shear waves into the test material at various refracted angles. It is equipped with a standard BNC connector for easy integration with most ultrasonic flaw detectors.

The 5 MHz frequency of this transducer provides superior resolution, making it ideal for applications requiring the detection and characterization of very small discontinuities. When used in conjunction with appropriate angle beam wedges, it offers a reliable solution for detailed weld inspections and general flaw detection across a multitude of materials where high resolution is paramount. The "Resolution" damping further ensures clear signal separation, crucial for accurate defect characterization.

Key Selling Points:

• High-Resolution Angle Beam Inspection: Specifically designed for applications demanding superior resolution in shear wave inspections.

• Enhanced Detection of Small Flaws: The 5 MHz frequency offers exceptional capability for detecting and resolving minute discontinuities.

• Versatile Application with Wedges: Compatible with a range of angle beam wedges (sold separately) to achieve various inspection angles.

• Standard BNC Connector: Ensures easy and direct connectivity with a wide variety of common ultrasonic testing instruments.

• Reliable Performance by Dakota NDT: Backed by a trusted manufacturer in the non-destructive testing industry.

• "Resolution" Damping: Provides clear signal separation for accurate defect characterization.

Benefits:
