Product Overview

TheSonic India Dual-Array PAUT A26 Series Flat Wedges are designed for advanced phased array ultrasonic weld inspection where A26 Probe Series dual-array probe configurations are used on flat or near-flat inspection surfaces. The wedge acts as the acoustic interface between the dual-array PAUT probe and the test component, supporting controlled ultrasonic beam entry, stable probe seating, and consistent inspection response.

The flat wedge configuration is suitable for plate welds, structural welds, flat shell welds, fabrication joints, flat pad inspection, and general industrial weld examination where curvature matching is not required. The flat contact face helps maintain steady wedge contact, smooth scanning movement, and uniform couplant behavior during manual or scanner-assisted PAUT inspection.

Manufactured from high-quality Rexolite material, the A26 Series Flat Wedge supports efficient ultrasonic sound transmission, dimensional stability, and dependable acoustic performance. The wedge is also supported with high-quality, high-standard damping material designed with a zero-tolerance approach toward unwanted ultrasonic sound acceptance. This damping support helps absorb, control, and divert unwanted ultrasonic energy, reducing unnecessary internal reflections, wedge noise, and signal disturbance during inspection.

Detailed Product Description

The Dual-Array PAUT A26 Series Flat Wedge from TheSonic India is developed for reliable phased array ultrasonic weld inspection on flat and near-flat surfaces. In dual-array PAUT inspection, wedge design is important because it supports probe alignment, acoustic coupling, beam control, and repeatable inspection response.

This flat wedge version is selected when the inspection surface allows direct flat contact. The flat bottom profile helps the wedge remain steady on plates, flat weld zones, structural members, and fabricated components. This helps reduce unnecessary probe movement, supports consistent couplant behavior, and improves scan repeatability during phased array inspection.

The Rexolite wedge body supports dependable ultrasonic energy transfer from the dual-array probe configuration into the inspected component. The high-standard damping support is designed to manage unwanted sound paths inside the wedge and divert unnecessary ultrasonic energy. This helps improve signal clarity and supports cleaner PAUT data acquisition.

Flat Wedge Application

The Flat Wedge configuration is recommended for flat surface weld inspection where OD or ID curvature matching is not required. It is suitable for direct scanning on flat plates, fabricated weld joints, structural members, and flat inspection areas.

Unlike AOD, COD, AID, and CID wedge types, the flat wedge is not designed for curved-surface matching. It is selected when the test surface provides stable contact for a flat wedge base.

Typical Applications

·       Dual-array PAUT weld inspection on flat surfaces

·       Plate-to-plate weld inspection

·       Structural fabrication weld inspection

·       Flat shell and pad weld inspection

·       General fabrication weld quality control

·       Heavy engineering component inspection

·       Flat pressure component weld inspection

·       Manual phased array ultrasonic testing

·       Scanner-assisted PAUT weld scanning where applicable

·       Workshop, site, maintenance, and shutdown inspection applications

Suitable Inspection Areas

The Dual-Array PAUT A26 Series Flat Wedge is suitable for flat plates, flat weld joints, structural welds, fabricated components, pad welds, blocks, and near-flat inspection surfaces.

For pipe, vessel, nozzle, tube, or cylindrical component inspection, AOD, COD, AID, or CID wedge configurations may be selected based on surface curvature and scanning direction.
