NDT Inspection Equipment’s Post

Many pipe support designs such as resting or mechanically fastened supports allow water to collect between the support and the pipe surface, and thus create an ideal environment for crevice corrosion. In some cases, galvanic corrosion can also be a cause for concern. Even though both the support and pipe material are steel, there may still be a small enough potential difference to generate a corrosion cell. Welded supports offer a solution to this problem; however, construction and future inspection costs may make this option undesirable. Identifying corrosion at support locations is difficult as the support itself commonly conceals the pipe surface in the region of concern. https://lnkd.in/gY2vvyr7 #ndttesting #ndtinstruments #pautprobes #probes #customprobes #corrosion #ectane3 #lyftpro #lyftgo #tubepro6 #Sonyks #SwiftUT #perpetual #ndtsoftware
