Product Overview
TheSonic India Three Set AWS Snail Wedges are designed for conventional ultrasonic weld inspection where multiple angle beam configurations are required. The set includes 45°, 60°, and 70° snail wedges, allowing inspectors to select the appropriate angle based on weld geometry, material thickness, inspection code, and approved UT procedure.
This wedge set is suitable for AWS-style structural weld inspection, fabrication quality control, industrial weld examination, field inspection, maintenance inspection, and general angle beam ultrasonic testing applications. The availability of three commonly used UT wedge angles provides flexibility for different weld inspection conditions.
Each wedge is manufactured from high-quality Rexolite material to support efficient ultrasonic sound transmission, dimensional stability, and reliable acoustic performance. The snail wedge body supports practical manual scanning, stable probe handling, and dependable coupling behavior during inspection.

Detailed Product Description
The Three Set AWS Snail Wedges from TheSonic India is a practical angle beam UT wedge set for weld inspection applications requiring 45°, 60°, and 70° beam configurations. In conventional ultrasonic testing, different wedge angles are selected to improve weld coverage, scan accessibility, and flaw detection capability based on the inspection requirement.
The 45° wedge is generally selected where lower-angle beam entry is required. The 60° wedge is commonly used for general weld inspection coverage. The 70° wedge is used where higher-angle inspection coverage is required. Final selection of angle shall be made as per approved inspection procedure, material thickness, weld configuration, applicable code, and probe specification.
The Rexolite wedge bodies support reliable ultrasonic energy transfer and stable acoustic response. The snail-type design supports manual scanning comfort and consistent probe positioning, making the set useful for workshop, site, maintenance, and quality control inspection work.
