Angle beam probes are used with a wedge to transmit a refracted shear or longitudinal wave into a test piece. With their large apertures, deep penetration angle beam probes are designed for the inspection of thick, noisy, or highly attenuative material.
Advantages
- A wide selection of wedges is available to suit any angle beam application.
- Wave layers with acoustic adaptation to Rexolite®
- Captive anchoring screws are provided with the probe.
Typical Applications
A3, A4, and A5 probes
Deep penetration applications
- Thick plates and welds
- Forgings
- Noisy or granular material
