NM01D1AW00910
The Sonatest DAAH Wedge is a high-quality, Type 1 external mount wedge specifically designed for ultrasonic testing on components with a 10-inch circumferential radius. Constructed from durable and acoustically optimized Rexolite, this wedge facilitates reliable shear wave inspection at a 37-degree angle in the material being tested.
This particular DAAH wedge is equipped with both integrated irrigation channels for efficient couplant delivery directly at the contact surface, ensuring consistent signal quality during scanning, and wear pins to protect the wedge surface from abrasion, extending its lifespan during circumferential scanning.
The 10-inch circumferential radius of the contact face is precision-engineered to ensure optimal coupling and consistent beam introduction on cylindrical or curved components with this specific radius. The 37-degree angle is a common and effective choice for shear wave inspection, suitable for detecting various types of flaws oriented at different angles relative to the scanning direction.
