TOFD Refracted Wave Wedges

Request Info

The TOFD Series Wedges are cross-linked polystyrene pre-drilled for assembly to TOFD hydlar wedge holders that supply couplant.

  • Multiple wedge angles available for both longitudinal and shear wedges
  • Profiles wedges are available
  • Standard and high temperature versions available
  • Available for scanning several different materials

Wedges shown below are for use with standard temperature carbon steel.

Item codes marked (*) are also available for high temperature carbon Steel (100° C limited exposure)

Specify pipe diameter for profiled wedges

Call for information regarding wedges for use with other material types, i.e. stainless steel, aluminum etc.

Note: TOFD wedges must be used with APTW adaptor plates and the corresponding flat, axial or circumferential hydlar wedge holder.
