True 2% Penetrameters / IQI's - ASTM-E-1742

True 2% Penetrameters / IQI's - ASTM-E-1742

Overview

These special ASTM-E-1742 Penetrameters are available in sizes under .25" with true 2% thickness and are offered in a range of materials. Lead figures identify the thickness of the material to be radiographed on one end and the material of the IQI on the other end. Serialization and Calibration are available, as well as Encapsulation in clear, thin plastic and Wood Cases. Wood cases come in two sizes for encapsulated and non-encapsulated IQIs, and are engineered to prevent loss and damage by keeping IQI's firmly in place using a shock absorbing sponge rubber insert in the lid.

If true 2% thickness is not required, or if you require a size larger than .25", see:

Mounting Blocks & Step Wedges

Mounting blocks are used when it is impractical to place the IQI directly on the object being radiographed. Standard mounting blocks are supplied in sizes corresponding with ASTM E-1742 IQI sizes. Their dimensions allow at least 1/8" clearance on three sides of the IQI.

Step wedges that are used for calibration and evaluation of techniques are also available. When an object with varying thicknesses is radiographed a step wedge of the same material, incorporating the same thickness, may often be advantageously used.

Thickness

2% of the thickness of the material to be radiographed, to the nearest fractional size. Minimum thickness: 0.005"

Note: Hole diameters are the same as 0.25" IQIs; only thickness changes.
