NM01SLM5025B

The SONATEST SLM series High Wear Single Element Contact Transducer is a rugged and dependable probe engineered for a wide array of direct contact ultrasonic testing applications. This specific model features a versatile 0.500" (12.7 mm) diameter element operating at a balanced 2.25 MHz frequency, providing an excellent compromise between penetration capability and flaw resolution across various materials.  

What sets this transducer apart is its high-wear face, constructed from a durable ceramic material and often reinforced with a stainless steel wear ring. This robust design significantly extends the lifespan of the probe, making it an ideal choice for inspections on surfaces that may cause premature wear on standard transducers. Its durable construction, typically featuring a stainless steel casing, further ensures reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.
