Quick Change Wedges

For Technisonic ABFQ Probes

Quick Change Wedges (WFQ) are designed to get maximum sound energy into the test material while dissipating internal reflections into a highly attenuative material that is built into every transducer.

Wedges with short exit points (WFQSE) and High temperature wedges are available upon request.

High Temperature Wedges

For Technisonic ABS Probes

High Temperature Wedges (WHT) are best suited for elevated temperatures up to 550°F. These high temperature wedges are made from "Technitherm" and are designed to reduce drift and attenuation as compared to other materials. Intermittent use at elevated temperatures is recommended, to avoid transducer overheating.

6-32 Screw Size, unless 4-40 is specifically requested. Wedges designed for temperatures above 550 °F are also available. Cooling Cycle: Allow transducer to cool to ambient temperature after 30 seconds @ 400 °F
