The Sonatest DAAH Type 1 External Mount Wedge is a precision-engineered accessory designed to facilitate reliable ultrasonic inspection of components with a 3-inch circumferential radius. Constructed from a high-performance Rexolite material, this wedge enables effective shear wave testing at a 37-degree angle within the material.
Specifically designed for optimal performance during circumferential scanning, this DAAH wedge features an integrated irrigation system with internal channels to ensure consistent and effective couplant delivery directly to the contact surface, maintaining optimal signal transmission. Additionally, it is equipped with durable wear pins that protect the wedge's contact surface from abrasion, significantly extending its lifespan during demanding circumferential scanning applications.
The 3-inch circumferential radius of the wedge's contact face is meticulously shaped to ensure intimate contact and consistent ultrasonic beam introduction on cylindrical or curved components with this specific curvature. The 37-degree angle is a widely utilized and effective angle for shear wave inspection, suitable for detecting various types of flaws oriented at different angles relative to the scanning direction.
