Dakota NDT — Snail (AWS Type) Angle Beam Wedge SNW6245D (45°, 5/8" × 5/8")
Compact UT Wedge for Precision Weld Inspection Applications SKU: SNW6245DOverview
The Dakota NDT SNW6245D Snail (AWS Type) Angle Beam Wedge is a compact ultrasonic wedge designed for precise weld inspection using 5/8" × 5/8" probes. Configured to generate a 45° refracted shear wave, this wedge is ideal for detecting and evaluating common weld discontinuities such as cracks, lack of fusion, and inclusions.
The “snail” design provides excellent maneuverability, allowing inspectors to access tight or restricted areas with ease. Its compact geometry ensures stable probe positioning and consistent beam entry, supporting accurate and repeatable inspection results.
Built for compatibility with Dakota NDT systems and standard ultrasonic setups, this wedge is widely used in fabrication, structural inspection, and welding quality control applications.
