Maximize Your Phased Array Inspection Accuracy on Pipes with the Sonatest DAAH Type 1, 37° Axial Rexolite Wedge (14" Radius)
Unleash the full potential of your Sonatest DAAH phased array system with this precision-engineered DAAH Type 1, 37° Refracted Angle, Axial (AOD) Rexolite Wedge. Designed for unparalleled acoustic coupling and optimized for specific pipe inspection challenges, this wedge is an indispensable tool for NDT professionals demanding accuracy and reliability.
Why Choose This Sonatest DAAH Wedge?
Precision-Engineered for Pipe Inspection: Features a meticulously machined 14-inch radius contact surface, ensuring perfect acoustic coupling and consistent beam delivery on cylindrical components with a 28-inch (approximate) outside diameter. Say goodbye to signal loss and unreliable readings on curved surfaces!
Optimal Flaw Detection: The 37-degree refracted angle is specifically designed for effective shear wave inspection, making it ideal for detecting and characterizing critical circumferential flaws (e.g., cracks, lack of fusion) that run perpendicular to the pipe's axis when scanning axially along the pipe's length.
Superior Acoustic Performance with Rexolite: Crafted from premium Rexolite, this wedge boasts exceptional acoustic properties, providing:
High sound velocity for clear signal transmission.
Very low attenuation to maintain signal strength, even when inspecting challenging materials.
Excellent wear resistance for prolonged operational life in demanding industrial environments.
Enhanced Data Quality: By ensuring consistent probe alignment and superior coupling, this wedge helps generate cleaner, more reliable ultrasonic data, leading to more confident defect sizing and reporting.
Axial (AOD) Scanning Advantage: Specifically designed for Axial Outside Diameter (AOD) scanning, allowing you to efficiently inspect the entire circumference of pipes by moving the probe along the pipe's length.
Designed for Sonatest DAAH Systems: Seamlessly integrates with your existing Sonatest DAAH phased array probes, ensuring perfect compatibility and optimal performance. The external mount design allows for quick attachment and detachment.
Durability You Can Trust: Sonatest's reputation for robust NDT accessories is built into every wedge, ensuring long-term performance and value.
Applications:
Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) of large-diameter pipes, tubes, and pressure vessels.
Inspection for circumferential flaws in welds and base material.
Ideal for industries such as Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Power Generation, and Fabrication.
