The Sonatest TOFD Wedge 60Deg M12 Plastic is a precision-engineered component designed to facilitate accurate Time-of-Flight Diffraction (TOFD) ultrasonic inspections. This wedge plays a crucial role in directing the ultrasonic beam at a specific angle into the test material, enabling the detection and sizing of flaws using the TOFD technique.

Specifically designed to provide a 60-degree refracted angle, this wedge is ideal for a wide range of TOFD applications, including weld, pressure vessel, and pipeline inspections. The 60-degree angle is a common and effective choice for achieving optimal diffraction from flaw tips.

The integrated M12 threaded mounting hole ensures secure and stable attachment of compatible TOFD probes, particularly those manufactured by Sonatest. This design facilitates consistent probe positioning and reliable data acquisition, contributing to the accuracy and repeatability of TOFD inspections.

Constructed from high-quality plastic, this wedge offers excellent acoustic properties and durability. Plastic is chosen for its ability to transmit ultrasonic waves efficiently while providing a robust and lightweight solution. The wedge's design ensures a stable interface between the probe and the test material, minimizing signal loss and maximizing inspection efficiency.

Manufactured by Sonatest, a recognized leader in NDT equipment, this TOFD wedge is produced to stringent quality standards, ensuring consistent performance and long-term reliability.
