NM01SS62622

The Dakota NDT Standard Shear Wave Transducer (SS) is a reliable and versatile ultrasonic transducer designed for a wide range of angle beam inspection applications. Featuring a .625” x .625” element size and a center frequency of 2.25 MHz, this transducer offers an excellent balance of sensitivity and penetration for effective flaw detection in various materials and weld configurations.

Specifically engineered to generate and receive shear waves, this transducer is highly effective at detecting flaws oriented parallel to the sound beam, such as sidewall lack of fusion in welds, as well as for characterizing different types of internal imperfections. The 2.25 MHz frequency provides a good compromise between penetration depth and the ability to detect smaller discontinuities.

The .625” x .625” element size offers a well-defined sound beam, contributing to accurate and localized examinations while maintaining a practical contact area for reliable coupling with angle beam wedges. This standard shear wave transducer is built to the high-quality standards of Dakota NDT, ensuring the durability and consistent performance you need for critical non-destructive testing.
