Sonatest — X6 Angle Beam Wedge (55° Shear Wave, Irrigation, Flat)
Precision UT Wedge with Irrigation for Weld Inspection Applications SKU: X6AW-004Overview
The Sonatest X6AW-N55S-IHC is a high-performance angle beam wedge designed for shear wave ultrasonic testing using X6 series probes. Featuring a 55° refracted angle, this wedge is optimized for detecting weld discontinuities such as cracks, lack of fusion, and inclusions.
Equipped with an integrated irrigation system, the wedge allows continuous couplant flow during inspection, improving signal stability and reducing friction during scanning. Its flat (no radius) design makes it ideal for use on flat surfaces and plates rather than curved components.
Engineered for precision and durability, this wedge is widely used in fabrication, construction, and industrial inspection environments where consistent and high-quality UT performance is required.
