Portable ultrasonic probe makes it possible to inspect for hidden cracks near insides of narrow tubes. Using pulse-echo technique, instrument detects cracks as small as 0.015-in. (0.38-mm) deep. Used for nondestructive inspection of other hard-to-reach places where conventional large transducers will not fit or where difficult to apply coupling liquid for contact ultrasonic testing. Inspects bore of tubelike fitting. Instrument makes it unnecessary to disassemble fitting to check for cracks. Precise orientation of transducer with respect to part not necessary for detecting cracks.
