Supplying Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE) supplies involves providing the necessary equipment, materials, and consumables used in various NDE techniques and methods. These supplies are essential for conducting inspections, testing, and evaluations without causing damage to materials, components, or structures.
Common NDE supplies include:
- Liquid penetrants and developers for liquid penetrant testing (LPT).
- Magnetic particles, magnetic yokes, and magnetic particle equipment for magnetic particle testing (MPT).
- Ultrasonic testing (UT) equipment, including ultrasonic flaw detectors and probes.
- Radiographic testing (RT) materials, such as X-ray films, screens, and cassettes.
- Visual inspection tools and equipment, including borescopes and video probes.
- Radiation safety equipment for radiographic testing.
- Calibration standards and reference materials for various NDE methods.
