NM01NPNDK01

This Dakota NDT 3/16” 5MHz dual element probe is a high-performance ultrasonic transducer designed for precise thickness measurements in a variety of materials, particularly in applications with limited access. The dual element configuration provides superior near-surface resolution and stable measurements, making it ideal for detecting corrosion and pitting.  

The probe operates at a center frequency of 5 MHz, offering a versatile balance between penetration capability and measurement resolution for a wide range of material types and thicknesses. The inclusion of a ½” extended snout is a key feature, allowing for improved coupling and easier access in tight spaces, around corners, and in areas with restricted surface contact.  

The small 3/16” crystal diameter further enhances near-surface resolution, providing accurate readings close to the material surface. Built to Dakota NDT's high standards, this probe ensures reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.
