The OKO-NDT Quick Change Wedge, 0.50", 45° is an essential accessory for ultrasonic testing professionals seeking to enhance their inspection capabilities. This precision-engineered wedge features a convenient quick-change mechanism, allowing for swift and effortless attachment and detachment from compatible ultrasonic transducers. This rapid interchangeability significantly improves inspection efficiency, saving valuable time in demanding testing environments.
Designed for optimal angled beam inspections, this 0.50" (12.7 mm) wedge generates a 45-degree refracted ultrasonic wave within the test material (typically calibrated for steel). This specific angle is critical for effectively detecting flaws that are oriented at or near this angle, such as transverse cracks commonly found in welds and other critical components.
Constructed from durable, high-strength materials, this OKO-NDT wedge is built to withstand the rigors of industrial use, ensuring reliable performance and a long service life. Its precise design and consistent acoustic properties contribute to accurate and dependable inspection results.
